[TUTORIAL] Ratting: Dashboard set-up: VideoFX + DXNothing

This is the first of many tutorials I hoping to release in the future, I am currently working on some private tutorials to aid my alliance, but will be releasing some cool stuff soon for everyone else. But you didn't come here to learn that you want to know how this setup can benefit you;

Image

- Can handle 3-6 characters on 1 large screen.
- 3 decent characters bring in 1b+ for 3-4 hours ratting. (The guys in the video, doing 100-120m a tick, 300-340m an hour collectively, with their regular ships)
- Takes 1 hour or less to set-up and play about with.
- Local windows are dominant and have to be watched to run this setup: making it pretty safe.
- Can use completely different ships, in separate locations anywhere in eve.
- Fully customisable to your needs. Eg. Ability to see ammo, isk made, anything you want.
- Provides awesome screenshots to confirm the complexity of eve to the inexperienced and show how smart you are in having mastered the wild beast.

The video tutorial; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HA88ndjh8x4
- 3 Ships used: Vindicator, Mach and a Tengu.
- Starts in the Tool Kit, before showing in game set up.
- Easy to follow for new users.
- Cool Scottish accent, ruined by audio editing (Needed to make my voice understandable in half of America, most of Europe and uninhabited islands in the pacific)

Accepting donations in the form of video "Likes" or ISK (Granted I don't really need it, given what I can rat on a day off but always welcome ["Seraphin Foad"]) and as always, feel free to flood me with questions, I'm always eager to help and shake off the rep of my alliance. :Goodguy:

I actually found this video on my own probably about a week before you posted here when I was just browsing YouTube for multiboxing videos. I watched it then and I watched it again just now. Good stuff. :)

Thank you for posting your video on this subject! :)

I have been using IS Boxer for many years now. I started using it in World of WarCraft, then I started using it while Mining in EvE. Mining in EvE is something you want to jump in, get it done and go back to doing other things. So I have 20 accounts to help eliminate the time needed to crank out ten billion iSK down to just a few days a month. Then I get to go do other more exciting things. On the PVP side, I have not really tried to run multi-accounts that often. I loved how Video FX worked, and I had planned to try it again soon. After watching your video I jumped back in and set up a 6 man fleet as a small test and it worked great! My setup is a bit different from your for now. I see now that I really do not need to see what is going on in space if I have everything I need to know on my Overlay properly.

What is on 2 of my 3 monitors... http://teabbs.com/images/arcpvp6x.jpg

I am still getting used to the setup, but I have tried it with all the same ships, and a complete mix match of ships and it all worked great. I love my ability to drop 30 t2 Drones on a single target at the click of my mouse. Then it is Guns, Missiles and blasters until the smoke clears. Also started adding webbers, warp disrupters etc. to the fleet for more low sec fun.

The above image is still close to what I am currently running. I have added a row of fire buttons above my main mod hub. One for each ship. Much easier to handle drones and the various guns without having to click on the right hand monitor.

Thank you for getting me back into the fun side of EvE again but with Multi-Boxing power. I am working on a new layout so I can support 8 of my 20 accounts for PVP.

Psyber would you mind explaining how you setup the row of fire buttons that sounds like something I would like to add to my dashboard build. Currently running 8 clients one primary center screen then 4 dashboard dps on left screen and 3 dashboard logi on right screen. Having a fire row would be helpfull. One day I will figure out how to make click bars

dam it seems like it would be hard to get 10 accounts on the black screen
