Whisper Mod
 

Hey all, let me explain the situation first. I almost always have two characters online, not for dual boxing (normally) but so that I can camp rare spawns and the like on one while playing the other. The problem comes in because Battle.net likes to send my message to the one that is camping and not the one that I am actually plying (go figure, right?). So I am just looking for a wisper mod that will allow me to automatically forward mods on one character to the other.

The only one know about and have tried is Jamba but 1) it is serious overkill for what I need and 2) it has severely screwed my chat box/options (not being able to see gchat or whispers for example). So, if anyone knows of anything like what I am looking for and point me in the right direction I would GREATLY apreciate it, thank you kindly.

I appreciate the help but that is my main problem.....the Battle.net thing. For regular whispers i set my AFK status to tell them to "whisper my main" but that also does nothing for Battle.net. Appreciate the thought though.

Well, there was RealID Toons Fix but it hasn't been updated in quite a while, and does not currently work, according to the last person I suggested it to. I glanced at the code, but it seems massively overcomplicated for what it's supposed to do, and I use separate Battle.net accounts so I don't need it anyway, so I didn't try to fix it.

The feature has been requested for my own multiboxing addon (Hydra) a few times, and I'll probably get around to adding it at some point.

That would be great Phanx but only if it had a separate module for the chat/whisper functions. As I said Jamba has that in it but not without having a bunch of other stuff turned on and it screws chat up horribly.

It would be part of the Chat module, but every feature can be toggled individually, and I'm not aware of any addon conflicts with Hydra currently, so it shouldn't break anything.

Awesome, I look forward to it Phanx.

There is an alpha version attached to my last comment on the relevant ticket, here:

Feel free to try it and let me know if it works.

I could not get it to work right. I might not have had the correct settings though. And, do the characters need to be in the same party? I usually have two separate windows open (windowed mode) but almost never grouped since one if just camping rare.

Yes, they need to be in the same party; pretty much every interaction in Hydra requires that the characters be grouped. Try putting the characters in the same party. If you're in windowed mode, you probably need to change the leader detection mode to "party leader" and set the character you want to get the messages as the leader.

Also enable Lua error display if you haven't already; it's under Interface Options > Help.

I don't have any plans to abstract out anything in Hydra to handle general stuff like fixing Real ID chat for characters who are not interacting in any way, since I don't use Real ID myself and don't have any interest in writing or maintaining addons I'll never personally use, but if the code works in a group, you're welcome to use it as a base for your own standalone "fix Real ID chat" addon if you want.

Will do, thanks for the help Phanx.
