DynamicBoxer wow addon for ISBoxer: Dynamic Teams and more addon

[Mercbeast]

Having issues with this. One character in my group, without fail, will not respond to the correct ATGs. For example, 4 hunters, put in an ATG called "Hunters", and one of them simply will not respond to those ATG commands. Instead, it's responding to a random ATG that it isn't in.

Odd.

it depends what you launch, right? if you have a generic team with say 3 dps 1 heal and 1 tanking ATG then it should work fine as long as whatever you login the slots matches the group (ie don't try to swap a healer for a dps; for that I guess you need to have another 'generic (yet) pro' that matches your setup; ie maybe 4 dps + 1 heal or some such

if you can repro a case where you launch a pure isboxer team and it doesn't work the same when adding dynamicboxer I'd like to know more
(I can show you how to turn on debug to log the macro substitutions for instance)

Ahh ok, I think that's what the issue was.

I was on a Mage Pali Mage Mage Mage team, then switched to a Hunter Hunter Pali, H , H team.

Gotcha. Healer went from slot 2 to slot 3.

yeah you need to keep similar slots in similar spots (which usually you need to do anyway for vfx, at least for me my healer is always slot 2; even if I change the account sometimes

[Mercbeast]

Is there any way to get around this, besides having every healer on the same account? Like is there a trick to hotswap isboxer slots on the fly with an export for teams where the healers are in different slots? So you don't need to shut all your accounts down and relaunch a different set?

[Moorea]

today you can logout and click back to change the bnet sub account to end up in the right slot? (without a full reload or changes to accounts that are already in the right spot)

this being said, vfx non withstanding, in theory I could add some feature to swap slots (right now I map actual logged in character to it's current slot# but I suppose it could also swap some slots... the problem I guess would be how to configure that / UI wise)

maybe 2 tables and you drag reorder the slots?

Shutting down game clients just to launch another Character Set has never been required:

However, the issue you're experiencing ties directly into my criticism of the DynamicBoxer add-on, and the description of the add-on itself makes it sound like it's solving an issue, with ISBoxer, that otherwise requires a good amount of effort to "fix," when it doesn't. My argument is that it's not a massive undertaking to either set up an additional Character Set or simply launch a second Character Set, with or without swapping some Characters around beforehand, when using ISBoxer.

I had heard this, and I couldn't make it work.

Just watched your video, saw you launch the new team via innerspace, tried it, worked like a charm. I had been launching via the isboxer program, and I wasn't working for me. Thanks for the tip and video link

The first version of DynamicBoxer classic that works again for 1.13.3 is out finally (sorry RL issues delayed it until now)

It's not perfect (some rough edges expected but seems to work with my initial testing, lmk if you find issue in the dbox thread or on discord or github/curse issues) but should unblock everyone.
https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addon...oxer/files/all (2.8.0-classic or newer)

Some important point of from changelog/release notes:

There are still some rough edges with or requiring broadcast /reload or selective resync (alt left click) to be fixed
(specially with a mix of in and out of party toons)

thanks!
