The homecoming of Sandolphan's MM Numpad binds!

[Sandolphan]

From the 'By Name' section in my original guide:

SELECTING INDIVIDUAL PETS BY NAME TO COMMAND:
 
Change MinionA, MinionB, MinionC, LieutenantA, LieutenantB to your names.
Keep pet names under six characters long in the /bind (you can use any unique portion of the name)
These binds use the divide, multiply, subtract, add, and numpadEnter keys to select individual pets by name.
After selecting the pet, the 4-5-6 and 7-8-9 keys for command and stance work for them, until you select a new pet/group.

Once you have the /bind with your names substituted (and keys changed if you like), copy and paste it into the game chat.

/bind DIVIDE "bind numpad4 petcomname MinionA agg$$bind numpad5 petcomname MinionA def$$bind numpad6 petcomname MinionA pass$$bind numpad7 petcomname MinionA att$$bind numpad8 petcomname MinionA fol$$bind numpad9 petcomname MinionA goto"

 

/bind MULTIPLE "bind numpad4 petcomname MinionB agg$$bind numpad5 petcomname MinionB def$$bind numpad6 petcomname MinionB pass$$bind numpad7 petcomname MinionB att$$bind numpad8 petcomname MinionB fol$$bind numpad9 petcomname MinionB goto"

 

/bind SUBTRACT "bind numpad4 petcomname MinionC agg$$bind numpad5 petcomname MinionC def$$bind numpad6 petcomname MinionC pass$$bind numpad7 petcomname MinionC att$$bind numpad8 petcomname MinionC fol$$bind numpad9 petcomname MinionC goto"

 

/bind ADD "bind numpad4 petcomname LieutenantA agg$$bind numpad5 petcomname LieutenantA def$$bind numpad6 petcomname LieutenantA pass$$bind numpad7 petcomname LieutenantA att$$bind numpad8 petcomname LieutenantA fol$$bind numpad9 petcomname LieutenantA goto"

 

/bind NUMPADENTER "bind numpad4 petcomname LieutenantB agg$$bind numpad5 petcomname LieutenantB def$$bind numpad6 petcomname LieutenantB pass$$bind numpad7 petcomname LieutenantB att$$bind numpad8 petcomname LieutenantB fol$$bind numpad9 petcomname LieutenantB goto"

Concerning adding an emote to the commands, here is an example of my All.txt file:

 

numpad4 petcom_all Aggressive
numpad5 petcom_all Defensive
numpad6 petcom_all Passive
numpad7 "petcom_all Attack$$em attack"
numpad8 "petcom_all Follow$$em stop"
numpad9 "petcom_all Goto$$em point"
lctrl+decimal "petcom_all Dismiss$$em salute"

 

This adds personal emotes to the attack, follow, goto, and dismiss commands.  I originally did this after some complaints long ago that I didn't appear to be doing much of anything!  Now players can see whenever I am issuing commands.  Plus it adds some character to my character.

 

 

 

I'll have to tweak my MM macros for my Bots/Traps MM, only her 'emote' would likely be pulling out the AE tablet and doing stuff with it.  Too bad there's no "play with remote control toy" emote.... 

[tanglin]

If I were to change the numpad keys to say, "Alt+a", or "Alt+q", how should I change the texts on these files?

 

Edit: Never mind, I think I've got it.

These are great but if you add "+$$petselect 0" to the start of the upgrade binds, then it'll target a pet when you press the key and cast the upgrade ability when you release it so you shouldn't ever have issues with having a non-pet selected.

 

Example (for Mercs):

add "+$$petselect 0$$powexec_name equip mercenary"
numpadenter "+$$petselect 0$$powexec_name tactical upgrade"

So having trouble binding a key to "goto self", I keep getting a reticle no matter what I do.

 

SHOULD be /bind numpad6 petcomall goto self, or location self, but neither work. Any help?

powexec_location me is a specific command that is different from powexec. I believe that goto would need a new command such as goto_location to be able to use that syntax, as far as I am aware there is no way to make your command work with the current pet commands in the game.

 

I believe the closest you can get right now is the Follow command (numpad 8 with these binds) or just using the reticle to click the location.

Thats what i figured ugh grrr. is there a command to "execute reticle on target/self" or something?

The only one I know of is the powexec_location me command which is specific to powers and does not work with general reticle targeting.

Blah thanks, so lame lol. You'd think this would exist already since powexeclocation exists already, wonder how much work it would be to add a "goto location" command.

thank you, i couldnt even use the equip hotkeys and this fixed it!

My apologies to everyone, but I just noticed an error when I posted the simple paste-binds message on page 2.  The quote marks were 'fancy' and the binds were failing.  I hadn't seen this until I just made a new Mastermind and came here to copy them.  Below are corrected binds (with proper simple quotes) to use if you don't want to mess with the text files version.  You just copy and paste each /bind long line into chat and the system is activated.  Don't forget the ALLPETS as well as the three for your pet type.

D I'm just new to trying to be a master mind I went with thugs/time  my question is is it possible to make the numpads a macro instead or won't that work?

You can make macros that will control your pets, but you can't make Sandolphin's entire numpad system as a macro. You could do it with a bunch of macros though.

[EasyEight]

So one macro for one pet type?  

[Sky Silverwing]

For anyone using the Ninjas.txt, if you're wondering why you can't cast the second henchman upgrade with numpad enter, it's because there's a small typo for the skill in the text file. Make sure it's typed "kuji-in zen" without the quotations, save, and reload the bind in-game. 🙂

[Lusiphur Malache]

I've tried to install this, but it doesn't work.  Does it have to be on the same drive as the game?  Should i use Demon_Summoning or Demon Summoning as POWERSETNAME?

[Bowden1337]

Im not too experienced with Mastermind, but just letting anyone know who is bots (i'm not sure if other MM subsets get a "healy" sorta guy) but the bind I added to the .txt files was

 

decimal powexec_location me maintenance drone

 

This will make the decimal on the numpad summon your maintenance drone. I'm not sure what the others might be.

For Necromancy, this bind doesn't work; I just downloaded the whole bind set because I couldn't find where I'd saved it, and the summons for the tier-1 pets failed. The power is named "Zombie Horde", so 'zombie' or 'zombie horde' would work, but not 'zombies'.

"Zombies.txt" is just the name of the text file that's being used to store the bind commands.

It has no bearing on the power name.
It could be called "LoadPower1.txt" or "JRanger.txt" and still do exactly the same thing.
The only place it's actually relevant is:

numpad1 bindloadfilesilent "C:\binds\Zombies.txt"

The actual commands are: 

divide powexec_location me zombie horde

and

numpad4 petcom_pow zombie aggressive
numpad5 petcom_pow zombie defensive
numpad6 petcom_pow zombie passive
numpad7 petcom_pow zombie attack
numpad8 petcom_pow zombie follow
numpad9 petcom_pow zombie goto
lctrl+decimal petcom_pow zombie dismiss

My mistake copying and pasting the wrong line in the file; I didn't keep the original file, so working from memory and what the necromancy.txt file looks like now, the issue was

 

divide powexec_location 300:5 "zombies"

 

This would fail to match against the power name, so I updated it to be

 

divide powexec_location 300:5 "zombie Horde"

[Reissem]

I am not sure if I am the only one having issues, but my numpad0 is not commanding all. I am having to individually select my different levels of bots to make them do anything. I have tried deleting the files and redownloading, I have tried the simplified text version, and the copy/paste bind version someone kindly shared. My numpad0 button works, just not having an effect on controlling bots.

[Avernal]

Got a friend who is playing City of Heroes for the first time in 2024, loves pet classes so made a Mastermind, but is colourblind. Made this little cheat sheet image for him and figured it'd be useful to others so am sharing here too.

Only thing I can think of is that somehow you missed a line of the bind files or something somewhere. I have around 20ish MM's & use these binds religiously, and just logged into one of my bots MM's to mess with this, but my 0 on the numpad does command them all as it's supposed to.

 

I used everything as it's written on the first page of this thread.

 

I follow the below steps:

Quote

Step 1: Create a folder in your C drive called Binds. All my bind files are written with that path in mind. If you need to use a different path you will need to edit the text files to refer to the path you have chosen.

Step 2: Unzip/Unpack the MMBinds.Rar file into that folder.

Step 3: Log into your mastermind and type /bindloadfile "C:\Binds\POWERSETNAME.Txt" , obviously replace POWERSETNAME with your power set of choice such as Mercs, Demons, Bots etc. The quotes are important as it will not load anything with a space (Summon Demons) if you do not use them

Step 4: Go. Hunt. Kill Skuls

 

And grab the bot info from here. (You can see the "all" command is the first line under Robotics, which is why the only thing I can think of is that somehow you're missing this line in your bind file, or maybe it's not loading correctly or something.):
