HOWTO: Multibox SWTOR on one PC with ISBoxer!

[Themopolis]

How I got mine to work EVENTUALLY

DPS 1 (Mapped Key)
Hold any keystroke action = ON

Step1:> CTRL+SHIFT+F2. Target ALL, w/o current (your in game keybind to party member 1, I set mine different so check what yours is)

Step2:> ALT-T, Target ALL w/o current (keybind to aquire targets target)

Step3:>1, Target ALL WITH current


It takes a few presses to get my other guys firing, but it works for now. I did try making it all less steps but didnt work. They change targets when I do, just click the mouse for a target and spam the key.


EDIT: 1 thing i do have problems with, is working out who will be party member 1, I know with 2 people its easy but I was doing 4. sure i'll figure this out eventualy

Apps pointed me here and helped my targeting issues greatly. Kris/Apps/Anyone....when using this method....my slaves stop following me after attacking...because I guess I'm no longer the target they are following. What to do?

After my beer buzz wore off...I figured this out.....

If you two box would you be able to solo the heroic quest?

Yes. The flashpoints were very challenging with certain classes. Others were impossible.

really depends on your group make up. Last night i was using a Commando and Sage which both have decent CC, the Sage having the longer CCs, and both can heal. Sage also has a tank companion. I was able to do all of the heroics on Coruscant and then most of the ones i was able to get on Taris.

However, from what i hear the difficulty scales drastically after 25 in terms of the heroics, so im unsure 2 box + 2 companions can do it.

Also, current state of Flashpoints only Esseles which is the first flashpoint is truely dual box able with only 2 toons, as stated in the last patch notes Hammer Station had a lot of bugs and was overly difficult at 18 2 betas ago, and i wasnt able to get in there with a normal group to test it again. I do believe that most of the flashpoints will require 4 players rather than companions. So this is also food for thought if you wish to run your own flashpoints you might as well run 4 toons.

ROFL!! Dude I think that's the best excuse and solution I've read in a long time. Nicely done. Mind posting what you had wrong to help with others and creating some SOP instructions.

I made a keymap...step one target party member one...step two follow. I put the hotkey on one of my G13 buttons and set it to toggle once every second or so. So after I invite everyone to group....I hit the toggle button and viola..."Set it and forget it". It may not be pretty but with no macros...you gotta do what you gotta do.

If you're making the G13 toggle the button for you (without you hitting it), this is likely against the ToS. I'd advise against it.

[Themopolis]

Yeah... I'll take the toggle off and just press it after fights.

be nice to get an official response about the use of G Keyboards and macros.. There were a few threads discussing that in beta and never got an official reply. I think they know that sense they do not have macros, players will be using 3rd party ,methods to accomplish it.
