Did >> /Lua stop buttonmaster then /Lua run buttonmaster

The same size came up. Just in case it wasn't clear, the default size came up, not the size I wanted.

Each toon will get the default size to start - do them one at a time and don't leave the script running on other toons while getting the size/position setup

Did >> /Lua stop buttonmaster on all of them and did Did >> /Lua run buttonmaster on the main toon

Same thing : (
 
I got to work. I did a comparison with a new zip.

initialRun =true >>>set it to initialRun = false

Fixed.

Thank you for the help, what a PITA.

What line are you modifying? I don't see any zips with that set to true outside of the intentional check
 
The original zip is good. Is the file I played with last night. I cause this crap on my own.
Started from scratch. I am doing too many things at once.

I didn't know about game.cfg for starting this plugin up.

Seem like I have almost everything working now. Going to m2next, Danet, and learning new commands got me overwhelmed.
Sorry for wasting your time.
 
Are there plans for the button window to have a gamma level so I could turn the transparency down and see through the box ? I don't "need" to click through the box but I would love to be able to see through it without closing it , if not I will plan accordingly because yeah . Button Master is worth the real estate on the monitor.

oh, i like this idea, i wonder if you could have mouse over and faded levels - that would be legit.

also, in case this helps you with real estate grimlock - you can actually drag it OUTSIDE of everquest, like onto another monitor
 
I'm working on some button master updates - probably won't be ready until sometime next week. I didn't see any settings for controlling opacity - just on/off.

Are there any plans for making the edit box expandable? find myself having to arrow key my way through lines to double check grammar or work out kinks
 
something i have discovered in playing with button master , the toon you create the buttons from creates a parent-child situation crash that only occurs if you try to edit the button from a toon you didn't create the button on it crashes it . is there a way to sperate the button config between toons so i can have sperate set ups between toons . something like a buttonmaster.toonname config , i use events file from a master file and i like that for a lot of things , but button master i think would be better served with single toon files in my humble opinion , but like i was saying above , even if there isn't i will use this resource . very nice work .

I made some extra tabs but when i load in on a differant toon they are not there how do i copy the layout to other toons? sorry if this a simple question
 
hi @SpecialEd , Hoping you can take a look at this or anyone can chime in, thanks. It loads with /Lua run but when I right click and the mouse goes over assign, it crashes out. I downloaded and put the files in the correct places. It does load fine and I can move it around and such. I can restart it after typing /mqoverlay resume and then /Lua run buttonmaster. But the same thing happens when the mouse goes over the assign.
1636221908277.pngEDIT: I think I got it sorted out...Was I missing that I had everything loaded but I had to make a change in the Config file first? BEFORE I can right click to assign or anything.

One of your button configs is probably missing a label. dm your ini if you don't figure it out

You posted while I was typing back.. :P Yes, I loaded it and tried to right click on a blank button.. so it is creating it, but labels it a numeric value and therefore crashes? When it dawned on me to go look at the ini I saw and changed the number to a word..ran it again..now I see I can edit in the Lua window.
 
Hey guys, this thing is pretty nice! Are the button sizes alterable, besides just the text? Is there any sort of option for transparency?
I haven't figured how to undock it from my EQ window as Sic mentioned, so it's an eyesore in my visual real estate. Minimizing is cool, but it won't function that way. ;)

/mqsettings
then "enable viewports"

should be an example in the > functions, features, etc <
 
Several people asked if I could share my ini, so here it is.

All these buttons are designed to work if clicked from any toon in my group.

Some of them call socials on a specific toon, which in turn activates or deactivates Reacts, which is beyond the scope of this post.

ok, I have done the impossible. I have lost the ability to display my buttons. I have ran the following commands trying to resolve this, to no avail.

/plugin mq2lua unload /plugin mq2lua load /lua run buttonmaster /lua ps /btn /lua ps /btn /lua stop /lua run buttonmaster /btn

1639153258328.png

I then went to /mqsettings > plugins > Lua and clicked "Show Lua GUI" and nothing displays. This use to display a new box were you could run some scripts I think. Not sure what I did but this was all working earlier today. Any suggestions? Re-install buttonmaster maybe, but that does not explain why the Lua GUI will not display...

I read a post above that said /btn
NM, I see you tried that

Is it possible that it's on another screen or behind your current screen? I haven't played with Button Master yet.
 
ok so, killing my session and logging back in worked.

/q /lua run buttonmaster

Now i wonder if I would have just done a /reloadui, that might have worked too.

Possibly by chance you had the viewport option enabled an the Gui windows were just on a different monitor?

I did this to myself. and it sucked.
