[Where are the Taxibots?]

Are you looking to team up with people because im trying to join a super group that works like the old taxibots, coordinating tours for badges as well as the regular transport needs

[Looking for a specific kind of RP group Repost]

Still looking for a group? I don't have one, but that sounds like a great concept and I'd be happy to start one with you if you haven't found one.

[Where are the Taxibots?]

I remember the taxibots being a great group in the game, helping low level characters get around, running badge collecting tours, etc. and I was hoping some of that would be continued on here.

 

There seems to be a taxibot SG that exists on the server and it says to contact a member in game or on the forums for information but not how to do that and I can't find any current taxibots in either place. Anyone know how to get in contact with one?

For all of those who have been trying and obtain the macros window, issue here is that Healix did a sort of reverse engineering approach (that is how awesome Healix is ;D ), for the rest of us mortals this is the way to do it:

 

First: If you don't have it already, create a "data" folder in your CoH installation folder, inside of it create a "customwindows" folder, the reason you do this is because the macros window will only persist if your installation folder contains a /data/customwindows path.

 

Second: Go inside the game and type the command "/customwindow name" This will create a custom macro window titled with whatever you input instead of "name", which will appear in the upper left area of the screen, sometimes can be covered by the "target" window

 

Now that you used this command, the "custom.window" file will be created by the game itself, trying to create one ourselves as per the original post 9 out of 10 times result in failure because windows way of creating files.

 

The macros that you add to this window, either through using its own edit option or by dragging those that appear in your skill bars,are from then on available across all characters (I recommend doing the macros the old way then dragging them onto it, sometimes the edit tool of the window itself gets weird).

 

Also note that once the macros are in the macros window, you can edit the name of the buttons with a much larger amount of characters than you were able when it was merely a button (I went from fly1/2/3/4 in the buttons to two words in each for example, good for proper identifying).

 

Hope this has been helpful and if you feel still a bit confused let me know and I can add pics of the process, many thanks to Healix for the original post which lead me to try it and ultimately research how to make it happen for me. \o/

 

So i tired that and it hasn't worked. I make the "data" and "customwindows" folders.  In game I did "/customewindow Macros" and all i got was a small box that said Macros, and nothing appeared in the folder.

Thank you for doing this. Its super helpful.

 

A couple of questions.

 

Firstly, im having trouble finding the data folder to put the customwindows into.  Is it supposed to be inside the CoH folder that the game file were dropped into after you ran tequila?

 

Second, do you have the commands to make costume change macros?
