First off let me say, I know thw mod squad may frown upon this, but it's for a good cause. IMO the Stoic was the best damn plugin built in a while for smart casting and gamepad play. But since it was heavily dependant on Impfilter, it's DITW and from what I hear not worth trying to save. I'm was really hoping there was a way to keep much plugin functionality withoutm re-writing all the code.

This was my favorite, and I know a lot of other people had really liked it and used it as well...if not for gamepad use, definitely for the awesome smartcaster that was built into it.

I just really want to bring a good plugin like this back. I realize it would be a lot of work...but I'd certainly be willing to make a donation or two for it's redevelopment!

Castaway was a big user of Imp Filter. Still a couple of minor issues in the code that we are addressing (one reason it is alpha still), but overall it works. It did require doing some learning and head bashing. I tried to document things to hep others out that needed to move away from Imp Filter: http://www.buwahaha.com/ACWiki/index.php?n=ACWiki.ImpFilter

Stoic Enchanter was a favorite of mine for buffing.

I used it in conjunction with my wingman profile for fuly functinoal play with a gamepad. I got too used to it though and now I can't pk for nothing. Even mbs get me now. But with the 3 extra spell keys now, I might be able to work somehing out...just need a "smart caster" that works.

Man if I had one wish for an ac related thing, it'd be for Stoic to come back happy
