You can find all the info you need at http://www.asheronstoybox.com

Cast It! is the successor to Einstein It!, with one key smart-buffing and casting.

This is the first release of an entirely rewritten engine, so please let me know here of any issues you find.

Thanks!

the font for the DL should be slightly larger so it's MORE OBVIOUS with all the text on the page took quite some time to find where the DL link was.


In regards to the below message, I read the whole instructions and then when i was ready to DL couldn't find it at first. but your point is kind of valid.

It took me all of about two seconds to find the download link. It is nice and big and blue.

Hmmm, it buffed my melees, didn't try it on my mage. Is it working for anyone else?

Edit logging out and back in fixed it for me.

Let me preface my reply by saying I have really never used Einstein for buffing, so that portion is not a big deal happy I still love the plug-in.

The Buffing part didn't work initially to buff my mage. Clicking Buff Me (after setting a buffing wand) did nothing.

Set a hotkey in DHS to BuffSelf, still nothing.

So I logged out after setting all the hotkeys in DHS, and after setting the revit options, weapons, etc.

Logged back in, and while the DHS hotkey I set (ctrl-B) to start buffing me didn't work, clicking BuffMe did work.

However....


You cast Mystic's Blessing on Royal Runed Slashing Baton, surpassing Mystic's Blessing
You cast Mystic's Blessing on Royal Runed Slashing Baton, surpassing Mystic's Blessing
You cast Cragstone's Will on Royal Runed Slashing Baton, surpassing Cragstone's Will
You cast Cragstone's Will on Royal Runed Slashing Baton, surpassing Cragstone's Will
You cast Infected Spirit Caress on Royal Runed Slashing Baton, surpassing Infected Spirit Caress
You cast Infected Spirit Caress on Royal Runed Slashing Baton, surpassing Infected Spirit Caress

I'm not sure why it is doing two buffs of each kind. This is the only wand I have checked in the list. And, that wand fully buffs itself anyway. No real big deal to me, however.

Other than that, it buffed my mage just fine, and pretty quickly happy

Couple misc. Things I noticed:

In Options, the pull down menu for how to restore mana is really narrow, the options are cut off after 2 letters (widescreen monitor, high resolution)

I was unable to add CS wands to the weapon list using "Add" Key.

"Clear" key in weapons list didn't clear an entry.

Otherwise, honestly I still just love the plug-in happy As always, excellently done, Gouru!

Chance are you have the checkbox next to your wand checked.

Smart buffs automatically buff the weapon you are holding when you start them, plus any weapons that are in the list.

Uncheck the checkbox and you should be fine.

Yes, the buffme hotkey is not wired up yet. It will be next release.

I might do a 1.0.1 to clear up a couple of these smaller issues. I wanted to get 1.0 out as soon as it was 'good enuf' for some initial testing.

Thanks for the feedback.

Yep, I did wink Unchecking that did indeed stop that issue.

Like I said, I think it rocks, with or without buffing ability happy I'm just happy to have it back! TY!

In my RL business .. its not the 95% that works right that most will note .. its that last 5% ..

.. anyway .. for my 5% .. nerd

I notice after three mage toons in a row, I would configure the wands and settings. Then the BuffMe button would not work. All I needed to do is log the toon out once .. then back in .. THEN the BuffMe button work correctly. Something about logging out/in activated the BuffMe button. rolling_eyes

I know the Abort Key for Revit Cycle (cancel the Vitae Juggle) is not wired up yet .. any chance that it can be in the 1.0.1 release? praying

Excellent plug-in !!! Really appreciate it! dancing

The abort key is critical to my well-being, as proved while questing tonight. So, YES, it will be in 1.0.1.

And it's the 5% I want to hear about, which is the reason for making it available before it was fully cooked. The work around for getting the buffs to work is easy fortunately. I won't guarantee that I will spend any time looking at it for 1.0.1.

Thanks for the feedback.
Gouru

Thanks for the update!
I also never used Einstein for buffing. For me the most important functions are the smartcasting ones, like wand switching and spells assignable to hotkeys.

Bug fix release 1.0.1 now available at http://www.asheronstoybox.com

If you start a revit cycle, press the revit cycle hotkey again to stop it (you could use the abort or pause button/hotkeys to do this, but these may have undesired side effects.)

Known issue when you pause a buff/revit session, if you take other actions before you restart it, you may need to kick it one time by manually casting any spell, to get it restarted.

Can "Cast It! v1.0.1" be installed directly over top of "Cast It! v1.0"?

My definition of "Cast It! v1.0" is after following your instructions for it's installation and replacement of EinstienIt!.

If you've already installed 1.0, you can simply install 1.0.1 on top of it.

If you are still using Einstein, follow the 1.0 instructions to install Cast It! 1.0.1

Just a heads-up to others. I struggled for an hour and could not get Cast It! to buff me when pressing the button. Finally found that I had activated (yellow button) the Lightning weapon but did not set the specific weapon because it was in a chest. As soon as I turned it off it worked like a charm. Sooooo....don't activate them if you can't set it.......... doh! Thanks Gouru
