Re: Desperately Need Vanguard KeyMap Help

Hi again and thanx for help had unexpected company last night otherwise i check email every 30 minutes or 1 hour max. What type of configuration info do you need, I mean im playing off my laptop but also have my VG files on external HArddrive for the desktop computer when I use the desktop altho its not as often.
I have Windows Vista 64bit 512mb ati video card 4 gigs ram 15.6 inch screen...I had posted the isboxer config here earlier if that is any help...

**UPDATED**
Ok have a working 3 box setup now I just need to figure out how to set it up for Questing So when i talk to quest mob in main and click on quest buttons it does it in the other 2 also (makes it alot easier lol)

**UPDATED AGAIN**
Ok now on 3 box with cleric, sorceror, necromancer, I have follow and assist setup with keys, and I have used repeater to turn on with a mapped key so i can click npc in window on and he opens quest and have to slightly move it on main screen to click around for it to open quest logs in other 2 windows however the quest messages and exit quest line up and work fine just cursor in slave 2 and 3 dont line up correct on npc, I have alt z as mouse and click repeater to turn on and off at quest npc....also setup buffing to work just have to figure out how to copy this for other classes lol

Re: Desperately Need Vanguard Help

Ok got everything working Fine But Here is my Known issues

When I turn on mouse repeater to repeat point and clicks for Quests main window is fine but window 2 and 3 if offset so i have to move mouse around to get the npc in slave 2 and 3 windows...

Now I set up specific toons to dual and 3box but I want to know how I can generically setup a 3 box generically like caster healer caster or caster healer tank and set generic key maps so any hotkeys 1-9 work across all toons I already know how to set healing

I'd suggest The ISBoxer Pro Configuration. See Pro Configuration and HOWTO.

Re: Desperately Need Vanguard KeyMap Help

Algae you are so awesome thanx for the help, will trying configuration like a pro and see if it works with dps rotation but now if i had say 3 casters i was boxing how do i set up casting? Since most if direct damage do i just rename dps rotation to say Magic and then follow instructions like dps rotation?

Re: Desperately Need Vanguard KeyMap Help

Another thing you can do in Vanguard is to set each character to automatically follow when swapping to a new window

You can do this with the variable keystrokes and the Switching tab found in each character slot.

Select "When i switch to this character" and then "Do this mapped Key" and choose your autofollow mapped key.

You will also need to make sure the mapped key is set to ON PRESS or ON RELEASE because by default its set to PRESS OR RELEASE and when this is set like this the autofollow will turn on then off again due to the way autofollow works in Vanguard.

Second if you want to save time hitting assist you can add the assist hotkey into your dps keys. With my setup everytime i hit 1-0 the characters automatically assist the main character im controlling.

Now if vanguard only had interact with target and click to move we would be rockin!

ok a little confused on this when i switch follow thing right now i have 3 toons out i swap windows and click /follow in each window to make the two toons follow the main which works until something breaks. Same with Assist

**How do I do this I would love to have it where i have Toon A as Leader and hit a key and have toon B and C auto follow and assist toon A
right now i have to manually hit assist on each toon and soon as i hit 1-9 key on toon a toon b and c will also cast their spells or attacks...

Now if vanguard only had interact with target and click to move we would be rockin!
