Need help solving Key map issue

Hey,

although i am kind of new to multiboxing with the IS Boxer i really love this software and so i started building my own setup using the pro system (because i love the idea of changing teammembers almost on teh fly).
I started with all the suff like movement, follow, assist and stuff like that and it all works great. Now i am facing a problem i cant for the live of me find a solution for. I've tried everything, watched tutorial videos, read guide, searched the forum.......nothing works.

The problem is easy to describe.......My mapped keys do not get send to the game. Not at all....nothing.

I dont know if i am blind, made some kind of little hidden mistae or got somethiong completely wrong. Heres what i did:

- I created a hotkey for my DPS rota in the Combat Hotkeys Keymap (2)
- It send the "use DPS Rota in Virtual Combat" ->all
- The Characters are assigned to their Class specific keymaps (Virtual Combat -> Prot Pala e.g.)

......and when i launhc the game , key maps are on and i press 2 on my keyboard ......right, NOTHING happens.

In the config i posted i have a macro assigned to the DPS Rota in teh Class specific keymaps, but before that i also tried simple keystrokes. Even if i just tell the software to broadcast a simple "if i press 2, send 2 to the character"....same result, nothing.

The macros i have assigned do work in game, tried that. (well they are pretty basic for level 10 toons anyway).

Can anyone PLEAS'E tell me what i do wrong before i completely lose my mind ? :lol:

btw. sorry if my english has some mistakes, i am german :lol:

and here is the config : http://pastebin.com/ZKHruvJE

Re: Need help solving Key map issue

So, it all looks right to me. Even exporting I can see in the ISBoxer Addon is created with the individual macros, the virtual chain looks right.

Only thing that comes to mind is if you change something in the Game Helpers section, then after you export, to need WoW to reload the ISBoxer Addon. This you can force by either running "/console reloadui" for each toon, or you can camp to the character select screen and then select your character again.

When these issues crop up, it is good to see if anything is actually being sent to the game. For this you can use the debugging console.

For basic key broadcasts you can also put the game into chat to see if something turns up :).

Re: Need help solving Key map issue

first of all thanks for the reply.

i've tried to reload after creating the macros......oh my, how many times did i relaod everything over the last couple of hours :D

everything else seems to be send correctly to the game. I have movement keys set up to make my toons (everyone but the main) move so they can get out of aoes and stuff....that works perfectly. It really seems to be only the combat hotkeys -> virtual combat -> class keymap -> game route where the commands get lost somehow.....

Re: Need help solving Key map issue

In that case, the only other time I've heard of such an issue, when the configuration all looks correct, is when you have some other addon installed which is "stealing" the keystroke. I.e. it is using the same in game bind, that you have set for your macro. In this case CTRL+SHIFT+1.

Re: Need help solving Key map issue

oh man, after another 2 hours i finally figured it out. Computers can be so simple and frustrating at the same time sometimes.

The problem was plain and simple that my keyboard layout was accidently switched to a different layout by a windows key combnation , thats why it kept sending the wrong commands :D now everything is back to normal and working great.

now i only have one more issue. I hope its ok that i do ask that here instead of opening a new thread. As mentioned before i have the 2 key on my keyboard set to be my spam key for the dps rotation. So far so good, but any idea why i cannot type 2 (or any other mapped key in the combat hotkeys keymap) in the chat for example even when keymaps are toggled off ?

Re: Need help solving Key map issue

Because, for some reason, the Combat Hotkeys key map is not included in the toggle.

This link will point you in the direction to fix it: FAQ#I added a new Key Map but the Key Maps toggle does not disable it
