Let's start here, because until you fix this the rest of what you want won't matter. It doesn't load your 3 accounts
for you? How are you launching your team,
specifically? Because it sounds like you're not loading them right, if ISBoxer isn't launching your 3 windows
for you.
You say you get an FPS display, is it just the FPS or do you also get a memory indicator? If you get a memory indicator, then you're launching
without ISBoxer (by selecting "EverQuest Default Profile" from the IS menu for example) and that's why nothing works! You should instead be right clicking IS and, under "ISBoxer Character Sets", select your team. If you're doing it right, you should see an FPS indicator, AND ISBoxer's Toggle icons -- if you don't see new icons next to the FPS either 1) you're launching wrong, 2) you didn't use the Quick Setup Wizard, or 3) after using the Quick Setup Wizard you removed things from your setup before trying it out.
What should happen is you select your team to launch, and it starts launching the launchpads for you. After logging into the first launchpad and clicking Play, the first client will come up; when the first client comes up and the first launchpad closes, it should automatically launch the second launchpad. If you're having IS skip the launchpad and launch the game client directly, then it will launch the second client immediately after the first client comes up.
Once you have THAT part settled, we can easily move on to what you're wanting it to do.
Option 1 - Have the hotbars of the two followers displayed on the main toon screen.
You can use
Video FX to display the hotbars from your other windows -- or any other pieces of them. There's some good videos by MiRai on that page demonstrating how to set that up.
Also if its possible to press keys on the main screen and it activates things on the other two, but individually.
Here you want to use the Mapped Key Wizard, from the Wizards menu. It'll ask what Key Map to put your new mappings in, you probably want to pick either Combat or Non-combat. Then it will ask what kind of key to set up -- you probably want either Key Re-Map (press one key to send a different key to some window(s)) or Straight Key Broadcast (press one key to send the same key to some window(s)). Quite simple. Also note that 1 through = will automatically be mapped for you, likely by the Standard Menu if you left that enabled in the Quick Setup Wizard.
Here's a video that covers most of the important things as far as getting started --
