Total Newb...Having SOO much trouble

Ok, so Ive watched many videos of people using ISBoxer with eve online and having wonderful results. After following the setup wizards, watching tutorial videos and guides Im hitting my head against my desk in frustration. I get the window layout setup, get my characters/team entered, but cant get ISBoxer to launch with eve correctly and cant access the control panel in game or anything like that. What I basically want is a setup with my 10 accounts......3 on my first monitor that I can cycle through and the other 7 on my 2nd monitor. I know ISBoxer is an awesome program....Im just having soo much trouble getting it to work with my setup. If anyone can help me...a step by step instruction would be awesome. I have Ventrilo and will be online for most of the night. Please someone help!

This is the central issue. Most likely once this is sorted out you will be fine.

I'd suggest popping into the ISBoxer Chat Room (under Help in ISBoxer Toolkit) so someone can help you troubleshoot this.

Re: Total Newb...Having SOO much trouble

Ive managed to get InnerSphere to launch eve appropriately now...and load into the positions corresponding to the window layout, however now the problem is configuring the layout to work the way I want it to.

Re: Total Newb...Having SOO much trouble

From your very brief description in your original post I'm going to guess you will need to use Swap Groups in your Window Layout. There is a good video specific to that feature, as well as a more general video on Window Layouts.

Re: Total Newb...Having SOO much trouble

Ok, I carefully watched the videos over again and setup the window layouts one step at a time. First was my group of DPS pilots, then logi and others. I managed to get the layouts set correctly, it was much easier than trying to do them all at once instead of 1 "group" at a time. The only thing I need to figure out is how to restrict specific windows from the repeater actions. Like, I want to broadcast to all but 3 windows at once?

Ive tried to followed this guide: http://isboxer.com/wiki/HOWTO:Broadcast ... of_windows

but I cant figure out how to set it to broadcast correctly?

Re: Total Newb...Having SOO much trouble

Well, those are the correct instructions. To see what you had done wrong we would need to see your ISBoxer Configuration. See the sticky post in every forum for how to share it.

This is what Im having trouble with:

Slots 1-7 on screen 2 (I only want broadcasts throughout these slots/regions)
Slots 8-10 on screen 1 (individually controlled - no broadcasting)

Im kind of confused as to who I should set the targets too.

Re: Total Newb...Having SOO much trouble

You need to make an Action Target Group (as per the instructions) and put your Slot 1 through 7 Characters in it. In the instructions, wherever it refers to "Miner(s)", put the name of the Action Target Group you created. You haven't done any of that in your configuration, so there is nothing more for me to tell you apart from go and follow the instructions.

Re: Total Newb...Having SOO much trouble

Ahhhhh, ok. That's what was confusing me...I didn't have a group to select as a target, and I see the link on that page on how to setup a group. Hopefully this will draw an end to my problems. Thanks!
