I vote we have to PAY inf to use AE after all it is in game a company that provides a service. If I go to the local arcade I have to pay to play video games why not AE?

This guide assumes you have a basic understanding of the /bind command. You can find excellent guides in this
forum for it.

Here are the steps:


1. You'll need the sleep.exe utility for this to run properly. You can get it here (or get all files at the link provided at the bottom of the post)

2. Create a folder for your files (for example c:\KB) and put sleep.exe in it.

3. Right click in the folder and create a new text file and rename the file
to target.bat. I used this name since I wanted my battle cry to happen each time I targeted the next enemy. You
can call it what you want.

The key to this is the "for" line. If you want to change the the key that is bound or the function the key does you'll
need to edit this line. Again, check the /bind FAQ for more information on the /bind command.

Note: I used target.txt as the output. You can edit the "for" line and change target.txt to any file name you want. If you
do, make sure you use that file name for step 6.

Target.bat contents (the "for" line is all one line):

@echo off

:TOP

for /f "delims=zzz" %%i in (phrases.txt) do (echo space "local %%i$$unselect$$toggle_enemy$$bind_load_file C:\kb\target.txt">target.txt)&&sleep 1&&echo %%i

GOTO TOP


4. Create a phrases.txt file in the same folder you created in step 2. This is where all of your phrases are pulled from. I
suggest at least thirty so you don't drive your team mates crazy with the same thing over and over again.

Example phrases.txt file:

Now you made me mad!
Who wants some?
It's time to do some clobberin'!

and so on....

5. Run the batch job by double clicking on it and then get in the City of Heroes game.


6. Last, bind the keybind text file in COH. For instance you would use: bind_load_file c:\kb\target.txt


That's it! For this example every time you hit the space bar you'll get a random saying from your phrases.txt file. Just run the
.bat file each time you get into COH and you'll have random phrases.

If this is as clear as mud, you can always create a "C:\KB" folder and unzip the files from here .
