Innerspace, EQ1 and Account names

How do I allow different profiles to keep their own account name information. Multiple profiles appear to use the last account logged in, and overwrite this value.

Not a big issue, but it would be handy.

The easiest way is to use ISBoxer, and use the Quick Setup Wizard. It will automatically set up virtual files for eqclient.ini and eqlsPlayerData.ini (this one stores your account name).

If you're not using ISBoxer, well shame on you but then the answer to your question is to create a bunch of IS profiles, and in the PRE-STARTUP sequence add the following command:

Code: Select all

fileredirect eqclient.ini "eqclient-MY CHARACTER OR ACCOUNT SPECIFIC FILE.ini"
fileredirect eqlsplayerdata.ini "eqlsplayerdata-MY CHARACTER OR ACCOUNT SPECIFIC FILE.ini"

This is exactly what ISBoxer's Virtual Files are doing, so if you're using ISBoxer, I highly recommend doing it through ISBoxer instead.

I looked at ISBoxer, and it is going to take more time for me to setup than I want to spend right now. I did install it last night and run through the wizard, but it wasn't clear what else I needed to do to get something equivalent to what I have. In particular I do not want a repeater.

Presently I have a nice setup using IS that works for me, and is easy for me to configure/modify. I run scripts in response to keyboard events / GUI buttons. If there is an easy way for *me* to do this with ISBoxer I'll
give it a shot. In the meantime I'll update my profiles with the pre-startup sequences. Thanks for the pointer.
