Question - EQBC Channels

[Wickedmael_96]

So I've been away for a good while and decided to give it another shot (don't we all do this?). Struggling to get channels setup in current eqbc. Should be /bccmd channel (insertchannelnameherewithoutparenthesis) to join it correct? Trying to command my ranger group, be much easier with channels unless there is another way for out of group dps to work Any help is much appreciated.

Manually modified the eqbc ini to add channels per character. In my case, I just needed 2 channels for testing, now I can add more. I run 12 toons usually, worked for me. As I'm just coming back, I'm betting not many of you have struggled with this same thing
If someone else runs into the same issue, it's an easy fix:

Find your MQ2EQBC.ini file.
Under all of your characters/server IP/port info start with character and channel as so.
Ex:
[Joebob]
Channels=main
[Billysue]
Channels=healers

I actually use multiples even though it says you can only be in one channel. It still groups them together.

Ex:
[Joebob]
Channels=main pullers melee
[Billysue]
Channels=main healers buffers


I'm sure there are much more intuitive ways to do this, but I couldn't make anything else work. Maybe it helps someone else that's struggling.
