Okay so I have like 23 different characters I play and each have their own configuration on WizardFE. Problem is I can't seem to make it so Wizard automatically loads the correct character's profile when that character is loaded, rather it will load the last character I log out correctly then I have to manually load their profile. Is there a way to automate this or am I SOL?

Also is there anyway, a program or perhaps through WizardFE itself, to remember the window position of each character? I'm pretty sure SF remembered window positions but I can't get it work for WizardFE.

Finally you know that Windows security feature where if you load up a program a window will pop up asking if you want to allow that program to make changes to your computer, is there anyway to make it stop doing that for certain programs, namely play.net launcher? Or should I just disable that whole feature on windows?

Thread: Windows and Wizard and help and stuff

the GM told me about snooshezis, lol, they're watching you!


The GM told you they script checked Snooshezis and that I reacted to the script checks right away?

Man. These GMs need to get lives if this is the highlight of their day that they feel they need to share.

In case you didn't get your answer.

Configuration tab, options, check the box that says autoswitch characters.

Did that too.

Well, I mean I guess it sort of works. It loads up the window configuration (like where I want all of the buttons and stuff) but it doesn't remember the window size so I have to adjust the game window size and I have to manually load the profile again anyways because if I don't then text is cut off in the game window because apparently it's not properly loading the window size or something.

Such an odd number. Probably was 24 until one got banned. Either way I am hoping this is at the same time.

Activate it on each character profile I believe.

I have a default set-up. I log in the new character, load the default (or pick a character name that has the window sizes you want) and then save the set up with the character name, writing over whatever it was previously. Make sure the autoswitch is checked. I suppose you've done all this though, but just in case you didn't.

Tgo, just curious, I use the Stealth SF and it does everything for me you are wanting, admittedly I only play like 6 characters, normally only 2 at a time, but it seems to keep track of everyone just fine; unless my friend logs one of them in and she has to re size the windows since she is on a laptop.

Is Stealth SF like the normal SF?

I like SF but the problem is the memory leaks can get out of hand when you play so many characters at once. Also there is a minimum size you can make the game window while with Wizard you can resize the game window as small as you want and I need to make some game windows pretty small to fit them all on my screen.

I've never heard of Stealth SF though so if that's different I can give it a go.
