Your guides are so helpful! Would you be willing to share your full gearswap files? I don't quite understand what you mean in the readme about Selendrials GS formatting (I have zero coding/scripting experience) I use Motes but am looking into replacing to whatever you use. Fingers tired of alt-tabbing so much.
Ejin nice seeing you on YT still playing the best game ever made; this is Lilalex way back when caitsith was a server. Subbed to keep up with your awesomeness!
I think I would add a layer to the teleport commands. I would add a few variables like for teleportation. So I just type a command to change the variable. ie //wado1 (change destination to Western Adoulin hp 1) and then just hit a macro that is like this: /send_console //warp all . I think I would do the same w/ having a single function for a skillchain or burst combo. Just setup 1 in game macro, that I can swap modes by changing the name of the string of commands. Iits just personal preference. I get annoyed typing commands when the strings get that long. I would rather type single word commands, or just click something from the macro palette.
Hi there and thanks for your guide! Yet may I ask a (probably beginner) question? I tried insert one of your lines into my current bard lua but it will not trigger. In FXI I type "//gs c C105". Is there a function that goes on the top, or what is lacking for it to work? Thanks for any help! This is what I have in the GS LUA: if command == 'C105' then send_command('input /ma "honor march" ; wait 5.5; input /ma "victory march" ; wait 5.5; input /ma valor minuet ; wait 5.5; input /ma "valor minuet II" ; wait 5.5; input /ma "blade madrigal" ; wait 5.5; input /ma "sword madrigal" ') add_to_chat(158,'Marches/Mads') end
What are people using to have the mules to auto follow you, like when you zone and take off and the mules finally warp in and they start to follow you if you aren't there... plus hitting doors and sky warps from island to island?
Was wondering, my ALT is BRD and i would love if i'm able to hit a button so it can do full buffs. Looked at your BRD gearswap, saw the commands for the JA's and things but how does it know when to switch for certain instruments?
Watched your video and set up my mule exactly the way you described. Sent the command, to test it out, and "---Processed Refresh Gear Swap---" came across the screen. Maybe you can help and let me know if/where I went wrong adding your code to my lua. Thanks ^_^
Question, let's say I'm running a command and it has a wait timer on it. Is there anyway to cancel a command that is midway through? Even if I unload gearswap the complete command fires off regardless.
still new to gearswap, so this is all little confusing to me trying to get set up to dual box and just cant seem to get it, possibly cause im not sure how to "read" the scripting for lua. im learning slowly, but its been a trip trying to get it all down.
So I think I got Homepoints down for bots to follow. but how do we do that for fluxes inside of Escha Ru'aun and zitah? Also those other bubbles outside the zones to head inside?
This part of the vid is outdated now. There's a new addon called superwarp that does all this for you without the commands: github.com/baharms/superwarp
You did a great job but since you asked for suggestions can you do more of these tutorials? Link your addons as I have the LUA's but not sure if I have all the plugins needed. Is it just the naming convention for each char name_job.lua or do you do /name/job.lua? I been doing dualbox manually were you can automate everything. thanks for any info getting this set up.
@@EjinCaitsith yes exactly. I am returning but never dual boxed before and you done some amazing stuff with just scripts / addons. It's a great video and I haven't seen more then 2 or 3 vids that are about addons like this video. Most are fighting but this kind is more informative and i think will be re watched more as it applies to the game more as a whole or can be used to enhance the game as a whole. Thanks again for for this video and any future ones you may do.
Im trying to find this AutoWS addon but not sure what i found is the right one. Could you send a link please? :D I have one that loads ok now but i have no idea how to make it work :p
Great stuff Ejin. Definitely going to look at the commands and try to implement. Is there a way to make all characters go through menu options for missions or to gain an elvorseal?
Also your auto ws addon you linked requires a libs file that isn't anywhere in the download. I find it pretty simple to add it into any GS but obviously better if theres an addon that does it.
Great Video Ejin and a huge help for multiboxers. Thing is i still don't get it where to save the files. I've been looking in your discord chat but i'm to dumb to understand. could you make a Video and show it how it's done? would appreciate it so much :)
Depends which gearswap you use. If you use Sel's I have it pinned in discord along with an example of what it should look like. Feel free to message me directly and I can point you in the right direction.
Yes under the command function but it depends which gearswap you use. For Sel's GS you need a dif format to make them work, which is pinned in my discord.
@@EjinCaitsith when you say it needs a different format (listed on your discord) what does that mean? I finally have an error free version of Sel's up and running, but I don't know what to make of the formatting statement...do I copy that format in the readme and paste it somewhere or would I need to format all the commands? Or should I just use scripts based on your gs cmds?
I have tried over and over and just cant seem to figure this out.... I am not the best lua savvy individual... Maybe my files are wrong or my programs arent in the right place. Help please.. I have six toons and have been alt tabbing them all... it is no good...
First off you need to use Sel's GS: github.com/Selindrile/GearSwap Then you can follow how I do it but you have to change the format of the commands to something like this: function job_self_command(commandArgs, eventArgs) if commandArgs:get(1) == 'unfol' then send_command('setkey numpad7 down;wait 0.1;setkey numpad7 up') add_to_chat(158,'unfollow') end
@@EjinCaitsith I cant figure out where to put it, i either get an error or it doesn't work, this is what the self command section looks like: -- Called by the 'update' self-command. function job_update(cmdParams, eventArgs) if cmdParams[1] == 'user' and not areas.Cities:contains(world.area) then local needsArts = player.sub_job:lower() == 'sch' and not buffactive['Light Arts'] and not buffactive['Addendum: White'] and not buffactive['Dark Arts'] and not buffactive['Addendum: Black'] if not buffactive['Afflatus Solace'] and not buffactive['Afflatus Misery'] then if needsArts then send_command('@input /ja "Afflatus Solace" ;wait 1.2;input /ja "Light Arts" ') else send_command('@input /ja "Afflatus Solace" ') end end end end
Actually no one uses Mote's anymore. It's too complicated and out dated and hasn't been updated in over 6+ years. Do yourself a favor and swap to Sel's.
So is that the problem? I have mote’s gearswap? And whats the difference anyway? Heck i never even knew anything about sel’s gs, everyone on my server uses mote’s, I’ve asked around. ppl are talking about this thing you’ve got here though. Its starting to get around it seems. Can I still use all of my job luas with the other gearswap?
Correct, I think a lot have people have tried but they can't get my commands to works in Mote's GS. They work in Bokura's GS and Sel's with some minor editing to the format(which is pinned in the discord).
man is there nobody playing this game anymore that you need to play 6 six box by yourself? Look man if you just ask I can be your friend and control one of mules for you
I always wanted to do this, but never had enough motivation. Now I have no choice, when most of the work is done :) Thank you!
Yeah, it's really not too bad. The main thing people will have to do is edit the waits to fit their own gear/lag ect
I love this so much, so much more efficient, subscribed and saved.
Much respect

@@EjinCaitsith Thank you!
Do you just add the commands to a gearswap lua? In my blm.lua after all my gearsets I can just copy and past it in?
What are people using to have the mules to auto follow you, like when you zone and take off and the mules finally warp in and they start to follow you if you aren't there... plus hitting doors and sky warps from island to island?
The follow part is the in-game follow feature /follow. The unfollow is a command or script that presses the "7" key to unfollow.
Was wondering, my ALT is BRD and i would love if i'm able to hit a button so it can do full buffs. Looked at your BRD gearswap, saw the commands for the JA's and things but how does it know when to switch for certain instruments?
What I posted on github isn't my entire BRD gearswap, it's just the command section. I full brd lua will have separate rules for which songs are PH.
@@EjinCaitsith can I get it?
You should use this: github.com/Selindrile/GearSwap
Watched your video and set up my mule exactly the way you described. Sent the command, to test it out, and "---Processed Refresh Gear Swap---" came across the screen. Maybe you can help and let me know if/where I went wrong adding your code to my lua. Thanks ^_^
Ejiin yet another great video💪
Thanks, I hope to keep it up!
Dude, you're a God. Thank you so much for this!
Np!
This is golden.
Question, let's say I'm running a command and it has a wait timer on it. Is there anyway to cancel a command that is midway through? Even if I unload gearswap the complete command fires off regardless.
Not that I know of. I think unloading gearswap might work, but I haven't heard of a way to stop a command once it's started.
still new to gearswap, so this is all little confusing to me trying to get set up to dual box and just cant seem to get it, possibly cause im not sure how to "read" the scripting for lua. im learning slowly, but its been a trip trying to get it all down.
I still don't really get it all, I wanted a GS script for a full PT of PUPs, can you give some guidance on that?
It's def PUP compatible
Awesome Ejin. I've been wondering how you do it 😎
Thanks. Yeah, really not too difficult once you know where to start.

Not that I know of using gearswap commands. Addons usually handle that stuff.

addons folder
how can you make it work to Mote's gearswap?
How do I change the gear in the notepad to match my own?
//gs export , copy , paste
hi its all time error for number 1 what i need do to fix it
Depends who the author of your Gearswap is. Check out the readme on github or my new Windower4 script guide.
Nice detailed video.
Also your auto ws addon you linked requires a libs file that isn't anywhere in the download. I find it pretty simple to add it into any GS but obviously better if theres an addon that does it.
This possible with ashita users?

First off you need to use Sel's GS: github.com/Selindrile/GearSwap
Then you can follow how I do it but you have to change the format of the commands to something like this:

Wait...this is 1 person controlling multiple accounts with what...Windower commands?
Its a plugin for Windower called Send, combined with Gearswap & custom scripts inside each characters lua file.
how do you get that mount?
From obtaining all the KIs from the Vana'versery RoE then finishing the quest that awards the mount.
Where in gearswap do you put the files?
Within the function self_command(command)
@@EjinCaitsith I cant figure out where to put it, i either get an error or it doesn't work, this is what the self command section looks like:
