Yeah... think you beat my most Special spam by quite a bit. WTB a few more perks on Ruff to match that

I'll add mine as soon as I can:

a) figure out how to upload an image so you can see it full size
b) remember to take a screenprint

While I'm thinking about it, is there a way to add buttons to the "Controls" menu, or are you just stuck with the buttons the game thinks you need? I've had that window closed for many years because I just never saw much use for it, but there's a few things like perks & specials that I could see using from there if it would allow it.

You can only use the buttons that are in the window already. Just pick a few perks you want to be visible all the time and move the others down the window. Then make some funky bar from it

I'll hafta look at what's in mine when I get home. Been having the toughest time switching between hotbars, and this might help a lot. Of course, if I could remember which keys were for Burst & Fling, I could take those off my hotbar too

I dont take those attack specials off my hotbar because its useful to see when they refresh (from being greyed out).

Here's my advie's GUI setup... I use a backpack similar to Desperado, but for things like combat rings and SL healing items that aren't already on my hotbars. My engineer has a similar setup, aside from having the pet window where I have my Control window.

Burst: M
Fling: L

You could print out a keyboard-shortcut map to have over your desk or something.

On Soz, I have all specials on the hotbar myself,to see when they refresh, all evades/perks are on ctrl+2 on single line, got them sorted out for easier access...

If the control buttons gray out too, I am prolly going to move anything with a keyboard shortcut to there. That way I have the heads-up when they go un-gray just the same, and free up hotbar space at the same time

Ruffixx · Post by **Ruffixx** » Tue Dec 05, 2006 9:28 pm

Yeah I've just memorized specials over the years...

L - Fling
M - Burst
O - Snipe
K - Dimach
H - Sneak
, - Full Auto
N - Fast Attack
B - Brawl
V - Reload
J - Sneak
R- pick up stuff

Note: Default keys... not ones people change, which I know many that do change the key settings

Okay, updated my gui-settings a small bit. Now I got a seperate window for combatspam, one for system messages and vicinity, one for org/raidbots and one for team.

Images is clicky'able for full size version.

The problemn with that is, you will than need your mouse to click the button for attack specials or perks, which is a MAJOR pain in the butt when you are in PVP, as lag will kill you. I only use the command screen to also watch refresh on heal and evade perks/debuffs. Mostly use Ctrl+1,2,3,4 to switch hotbars.

And yes Pinder, sometimes buttons don't grey out, hence the 12354556789231245657856 command.

Why is clicking buttons different from pressing keys? I dont see any difference in them when pvp'ing
