Dualsend working for anyone? Windower 4.

I last played in November and everything was working then. I just reactivated today and Dualsend doesn't seem to be doing anything.

Sometimes I'll get the "You need to enable keyboard_allowmmf input" message, which is already allowed. I enable it again just to humor it but nothing happens anyway.

Even when I don't get this message, my dualsend macros are no longer working, nor will any commands work directly from the chatlog.

I've upgraded to Windower 4, but even after going back to 3.4 I can't get Dualsend working.

My macros are formatted as follows, and these all worked prior to today:

/console send Character2 /ma "Cure IV" Character1

I'm not sure what to do, and my girlfriend and her sister seem to be having the same problems.

Any ideas? Known issue or is there something I'm missing?

You actually went out looking for his son LUA who is also named Send? It would probably be at his house, if it works like dualsend and its his biological son then im sure he's definitely taking advantage of it for his own personal reasons and probably isn't going to share it. Would you share your son? I didnt think so.

Punchy are we?

What I meant was I haven't seen anything that works like dual send for 4.0. If anyone has any insight, it would be greatly appreciated.

This thread gave me a migraine....

Here's the link for the Send LUA script
Your text to link here...

Dealing with Lua scripts as mentioned on that link:
Quote:
Lua addons are similar to Windower Plugins, in that they are loaded once and continue to remain active, acting upon events and commands.

You can load Lua addons via the //lua load command, similar to plugins. For example, if you had an addon named test.lua, you would load it by typing:
//lua load test
or
//lua l test

So I downloaded everything in the zip, extracted it, tried the above to load it but couldnt get it to do so. I moved around the files, and continued to try to no success.

"Error loading addon send. File does not exist"

In your addons folder, make a folder called send, and put send.lua in that folder.

Make sure you load send on both (or all) characters.

It is. I even downloaded the whole thing no need to make the send folder.



Should one of those folders be in the windower folder? I tried putting the add ons next to and in the plugins* folder as well. still didnt work.

Yes.

Your path should look something like...

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windower4\addons\Send\send.lua

I've yet to find a way to send commands via macro with this though.. it works when I type it out each time, but no luck with macros.

In your macros you're using /console send .... instead of //send .... right?

Actually.. no. I had an extra '/' before Send. I tried a bunch of different ways to do it, but not this one. My thanks on behalf of myself and my stumped friends <3

So I found this, I'm trying it out.

I can send information from character1 to Character2, but I cant go from character2 to character1. But I tested it out by using character2 to send commands to character2, and it worked.

any ideas?


disregard, I fixed it, one of my windower hooks wasnt updated :)

Sorry for the migraine and thanks for the link.

Any ideas on how to get this to autoload? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Adding a delay helps, if you just add
lua l send
to your init.ini, it doesn't seem to work (or didn't when I first tried, anyway).

I use autoexec to load stuff based on character login, so I just added my 'lua l send' to those... another options would just be to add a section at the end of your init.ini with a wait 10 or something

wait 10
lua l send
lua l autojoin
etc

Thanks, I will give this a shot.
