Multi-boxing System Configuration & Softwares General FAQ

[Sian]

is your eqclient very different from mine Nilbus ? Do you see anything I could change to improve ?

My minimum usage Eqclient - minus the color and keymapping options.

Thanks.will see what it gives

[Denizen]

One thing I've not done, but it is on my ToDo list, is to turn off the Moon Curse Illusion, which I really hate to do as I like it.
This is because it of course makes you much more graphically complex than a stick figure at precisely the time you want all resources available with least lag...when fully buffed and ready for a raid fight.

This isn't pertaining to multi-boxing but I am having issues isolating certain messages to certain chat windows and can't seem to find an options filter or chat window drop down filter to fix it.

I'm trying to get my nukes to show the damage they are doing in my main chat window but turning "my spells" on just shows anything that has to do with me (bard songs fading, runes applying / fading, etc etc) and is way too much clutter. When I turn "non melee" damage on I have no "just my non melee damage" filter so I am seeing Lifetap procs from all the melee, pets, etc.. Some of this is rectified by taking a few steps back but in some areas I don't have that kind of room.

Just wondering if there is a more advanced filtering system available through a UI or some kind of tool that lets me do more than the EQ options filter and the chat box filter.

Thanks!

Well my posts have been (ahem) trolled so what the heck. But this should be moved to another place.

Right click bar on top of window you want spells to appear in. Apply filter you want. Channel applies how you want to interact with the window /ooc /say /guild etc. Only one channel per window. Multiple filters per window.

[Denizen]

I did find it very helpful to have Nilbus post his ini file. I do note that Nilbus has

log=TRUE

I have found this adds considerable overhead to EQ.

I do however greatly appreciate the detailed parses that folks have provided in order to get the current code more equivalent to the previous code. Be that as it may, in day to day play, this really eats my already not so great bandwidth.

So in most circumstances all my characters have

log=FALSE

[Nilbus]

I haven't found any real performance hit from logging - each char only parses their melee and their pets, no spells from procs or nukes are parsed generally.

[Denizen]

I've generally only used logs when all my filters are off so I could do complete parses of logs. When this is done the performance hit for me is very substantial. This goes way back to live, one could, with all filters on, slow to a crawl. When only a few filters are on, as in your case, yes the performance hit is negligible. But then I'm dealing with 10 mbps ADSL line connections.

If you have 100 mbps fiber optic then all would be great --- sure wish I could get this here. Currently working on aggregating 4 x 10 mbps ADSL lines with a Peplink Balance.

[Sian]

tested your ini file Nilbus...600mo for one session, which is about the same as mine. I don't understand *sighs*
