Assist/Follow/IWT not working for all characters

Hello,

I am having a problem for the past few days (maybe since patch, but not sure)

Assist/Follow/IWT does not work for the primary character when I switch active screens.

Notes > Happening on Retail version team.

I have tried the following
- Restarted computer: Issue persists
- Updated all addons: Issue persists
- Disable all addons (except ISBoxer): Issue persists
- Check for updates in ISBoxer: None
- Check for updates in Inner Space: None
- Re-Export from ISBoxer: Issue persists
- Recreate team in ISBoxer: Issue persists
- Set up a brand new team: Issue persists
- Test from Classic team: Issue does not persists > Isolated to Retail only
- Pulled my hair out: Issue persists

I'm slightly at a loss of how I can resolve this issue. Any thoughts/insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I also have a similar problem. I have eight accounts and when I am in charge of account 2 the other accounts do not follow it. In account 7 when I press to follow all the characters start to follow account 5 instead of 7.

The other accounts are normal to follow and interact with and this problem started this morning.

There was a change to how modifiers work in WoW.

Left Shift and Right Shift are now just Shift. Same with Control and Alt.

Follow and Assist in ISbxoer uses the FTL system which uses modifiers to differenciate who you should follow/assist.

Slots 2, 7, 8 are affected in the default set up.

You will need to change the modifier manually in your Character Set > Slot #

This shows where to change the modifier for slot 2 with the modifier for slot 6.

What the F..... O.o

So, besides this viewtopic.php?f=4&t=10674
and trying to correct all the changes in all my teams (Balance Druid with the eclypse system ist completely pain in the ass for multiboxers, you only can alternate solar and lunar, or maybe someone has a better solution)
now since tonight i figured out, after much testing, ok, the modifiers must be broken. Then i thought, ok, since i will play in the future 32 accounts (now 25) i need to do anyways, by hand, 2 FTL Macros and add everywhere the mod/nomod conditions ... now if i had done this, without reading here or dual-boxing, that would help anyway? O.o

so now we only have 7 FTL combinations and not 63 anymore?

so either we need every additional 7 Characters a new FTL Macro, that would be solution one, right? (please feedback if that would work).

OOOR you could just make (64! Macros) 2x32xMacros (one for every Char): "/f AssPainA" "/a AddPainA" "/f AssPainB" "/a AssPainB" and so on ... not to forget /targetexact AssPain.
Then you need 96Macros only for that

If there is no difference between Right an Left Mod now then it seems permanent.

EDIT: Now, there is only last one thing we can do (at least for the mass multiboxer): LAX, HELP! HEEEEEEEEEEEELP!!! ... XD

I'm not quite sure what I should do. Does each slot have a specific key modifier combination? In this particular group I just have 2 characters. One follows and IWT without prob. the other doesn't. I'm a very basic user so extra help is appreciated.

Jabberie's post 3 up has a picture of where you should make the change.

Slot 2, needs to have the Slot ID modifiers changed.

The above modifier change did not improve my 2nd character from not being able to lead. My issue started after I disabled addons and re enabled them.

Please refer back to your other thread. No need to carry the same convo on in two different threads.

I posted it here for the benefit of others who have posted here in case it can be of use to them/ or if they might have insight why my character 2 is not working.
