DISCLAIMER: NeverBoxer is an advanced ISBoxer configuration. Although much effort has been made to make the config as plug-and-play as possible, you may find it challenging to modify it as a new ISBoxer user. It is *HIGHLY* recommended that you read the installation and configuration portions of the guide below carefully, as it details step-by-step, how to install, configure and use NeverBoxer properly. Failure to do so, will waste valuable multi-boxing time at the expense of figuring out how to troubleshoot your character sets and configuration.

Part 1 - What is NeverBoxer?
__________________________________________________________
NeverBoxer was specifically made to help new ISBoxer users to multi-box Neverwinter in the easiest manner possible and providing a rich feature-set while minimizing the amount of configuration required. It is the culmination of well over a hundred hours of feature-building, keymap coding and troubleshooting. It's unfortunate that Neverwinter Online has such a 'awkward' set of macroing features, as this makes multi-boxing this particular game challenging, particularly for a new ISBoxer user who just wants to focus on multi-boxing. I say this because not everyone enjoys building ISBoxer configurations since they can require a substantial outlay of valuable gaming time. I've made NeverBoxer available to you as-is to enable you to enjoy multi-boxing without having to start from the beginning - my only request is that if you make use any part of this configuration, to please credit me for my work. To aid those wanting to learn about the configuration, all code has been completely documented and sub-organized within key maps. I sincerely hope you enjoy the fruit of my labor and please make sure to leave feedback to let me know how improvements can be made.
