  1. Macros cannot to that. Macros can only really trigger on power, especially for toggles.

    Check check on Monorail's Citybinder post in this forum section, this program may help you use mulitple keypress to activate your toggles.

    A basic one I use is ...
    /bind J "powexec_toggleon tough$$powexec_toggleon invincibility$$powexec_toggleon temp invulnerability$$powexec_toggleon Unyielding"

    I hit "J" serveral times to turn on my toggles. Only thing I have to remember is not to press "J" to fast, and to place my toggle on powers in a sequence that will have the slower recharging toggles go last. This way while I re-toggle my powers I do not have to wait as long.

    Very nice thread...thx for doing this XPP!

    As for me, I'm 38, live in WDC. I'm director of communications and corporate relations for an association. Here is a pic of my wife and I . We got married in 2003 in the Outer Banks, North Carolina.

    Cheers,

    Wow Someone else from the DC area.
  3. To get it to work in game first run your *.bat file. Then run CoX. The next step is to enter

    \bindloadfile c:<path>\target.txt

    Actually before starting the game when you run the *.bat file, open the target.txt file. If you have enough different phrases then each time you open/close/reopen that particular file you should see a different phrased bind. If you can see that then that part at least works. Then you can open the game and load the file.

    If you have basic keybind files for powers, movement, inspiration use or re-load bind file you could bind the target.txt file on that main file as well.


    You could even make it a macro if you need to do a master reset without having to load all the files back.
    /macro Reset "bindloadfile c:<path>\target.txt"


    Also make sure the filenames listed in the batch file, phrases.txt and filename.txt, match the filenames of the actual files created.


    Finally I do not think you need the <key> in the "...do (echo <key> %%i>..." in the batch file. My random binds work fine without it.




    Edited by me....

    To recap. It looks like you are want to run the way I do letting the phrase.txt have the control of bind instead of using it to just control phrases. This way does allow a different power to be used. If you are intending to use the same power then you might be able to add it to the batch file.


    <ul type="square"> @echo off
    :TOP
    for /f "delims=~~~" %%i in (phrases.txt) do (echo space "local %%i$$unselect$$toggle_enemy$$powexec_name &lt;power&gt;$$bind_load_file C:\kb\target.txt"&gt;target.txt)&amp;&amp;sleep 1&amp;&amp;echo %%i

    GOTO TOP[/list]
    Otherwise do it as I describe above. Any other questions just let me know. I may not have created it, but I have an idea or two about its function.
  4. Kenja,

    Edit the Phrase file not the batch file. Just add the power you want to the bind. I use for one alt....

    o " $$powexec_auto ball lightning$$powexec_name short circuit$$l &lt;scale 2&gt;&lt;bgcolor yellow&gt;&lt;color black&gt;Double Blast$$bind_load_file C:\CoH\Keybinds\random_phrase_files\Dynamo_Blaster \Dynamo_target.txt"

    and

    ctrl+z "l &lt;color white&gt;&lt;border #9f9fff3f&gt;&lt;bgcolor #3f3f3f9f&gt;Sniping $target$$powexec_auto built up$$powexec_name Zapp$$bind_load_file C:\CoH\Keybinds\random_phrase_files\Dynamo_Blaster \Dynamo_target.txt"

    You can run multiple bind commands in the phrase file.
  5. Are you changing the target file, or the phrase file? I believe if you edit the phrase file and change each line from "space" to your letter choice, that should properly set the bind in the target file when the batch file is run.
  6. And we would not be tall enough to put the tops on the big kids.

    The question now becomes do we have slots for 1 kid verision of our Main. I torn between Darc Girl and Darc Scout.
  7. PM it was a quick and dirty list. And I was going for goofy/silly funny and not true sidekicks. Since that is your character I would hope you would come up with a better name. I was reallly realllly reaching for serveral of names. Besides a female sidekick with Jr. in her name is just not right, like Flats sidekick.

    Wow, Darc not only spoke..he gave praise. And to US no less. Someone e-mail that boy some chicken soup. He can't be well.

    I am not well I am a Villain now.


    Great we can now have a TBP Jr. or Teen BP, with Kid Flatfoot, Kid Teckstyle. PrincessMystic Jr. Little "Hello Nurse" Jess, Iron Danny, Darc Girl, Darc Scout, Enershia 2 Electric Boogaloo, and Spidery Angel. Maybe I need to add a kiddy table to the base with a playstation/X-Box type room. Gee how can a guy retire in peace if all the kids want to come over to the new base and play. hehehe.

    I should be glad the Mayor of Paragon Does not have Darc Ranger babysitting you during your adventures, well at least not yet. You to would probally turn my hair white, from the stress of your misadventures.
  9. You guys are hilarious Very funny. I am glad we get to hang out. Keep up the hard work.

    ya its a global channel, that i'm trying thanks alot i'll try that out when I get back later tonight.

    This should also work without changing the current channel in use.
    For example if you were in local you could use this bind to chat in global and still stay in local chat.

    Shift+2 beginchat /send "Global Channel" [lvl$level:$Archetype:$name]

    I know it look funny without the quotations and the begin and end, but this works.

    Glad to help.

    I'm sort of new at this, so forgive me if this has already been asked and answered.

    I'd like to create a bind that has pauses in it.
    Example: I activate Snipe blast, local would see "Target Aquired 'target name' Charging Canon" then a second later Local would see " Canon charged Fire!"

    I have a robotic character that i'd like to create binds like this for.

    So Is it possible?

    /me crosses fingers

    [/ QUOTE ]

    TekTron the only other way to do this is to use two text files.

    Snipe1.txt
    ctrl+H "+ $$Local Target Aquired $target Charging Canon$$bind_load_file c:\CoH\Keybinds\Snipe2.txt"


    Snipe2.txt
    ctrl+H " $$powexec_name Snipe power name$$Local Canon charged Fire!$$bind_load_file c:\CoH\Keybinds\snipe2.txt"


    To start bind copy this line into your chat window:

    /bind_load_file c:\CoH\Keybinds\snipe2.txt


    If you story you bind files differently adjust the text files appropriately.

    The pause would be manual. Press down on the key would say snipe1 text. Release key would fire blast and say second text phrase.


    You could move "powexec_name Snipe power name$$"
    to snipe1 after local text and before bind load command if timing is not to your liking.
  12. This is a great idea, glad someone has set this up.

    One suggestion, if possible, is to separate same day event by an "-----------" or other symbol so that that when other events get times posted so it looks cleaner, especially if events overlap.

    Two thumbs up or two paws up. Better yet I give this post four kitty paws.

  15. I am too old to be cute.
    I almost on the verge of being creepy old Mr. Johnson. Any moment now the Scooby gang will appear and while I am being arrested I would be required by law to say.... " I would have gotten away with it to, of it was not for those meddling kids."
  16. And standing in front on the horse is any safer when it goes boom. Well if it is a dead horse then that is ok, but a live one, I am standing in the next county using a NASA telescope to view the event. Better safe than sorry.
    Besides I do not want horse with my pie and mead.
  17. Also do not open around your wife or Significant Other either.
  18. Is there a way to get a list of SG mates like you can for your friends list?
  19. Well I did stretch the truth on one point. The second pic was from Halloween. Did not want to scare yall too much.
  20. I am a 38 year old mad scientist for a world power.

    Here is a pic of me taken while passing through a small town in Colorado. Darc Ranger 1

    Here is another picture of me in my Maryland Renaissance Festival gear, Darc Ranger 2
    By the way this pic was taken at work, and it was not Halloween. See I told ya I am mad. Look at the eyes.
    Thank you and good night.

    PS

    If knowledge is power and power corrupts, then we are all in a lot of trouble.

    PS2

    It really freaked my friends out when they saw the first pic cause it was too close to the original.
  21. Weap0nX,

    Do you have plans to modify the Team_Select binds so that you can trigger a power like recall friend, or heal and on top of that add a tell or say feature?

    I have binds that are basic that does this, but I wanted to be more dynamic and be able to exclude myself from the list and adjust to team size.
