Price: $39.95

PC Game Tools is proud to introduce the Control Assistant! This program was written to control multiple characters in World of Warcraft, Everquest 1, Everquest 2, Vanguard, Lord of the Rings, Warhammer, SWG, DAoC and more. Commonly called "2 Boxing". It has numerous functions that are listed below, but primarily we were looking to make a tool that could ease all the repetitive tasks we do on our main character and tell our other characters what to do while we just concentrate on playing. We still play our main characters, but the Control Assistant helps run through all our heals, combat styles, recasts our DoTs on time, etc. without having to mash buttons constantly and gives us the luxury of running out of the room for a bit or talking to our spouse without having our character stop ;).

The other main function of the Control Assistant is that it is a "remote control" for our "bots" by sending commands to our boxing tools (Heal, Combat and Boxin' Assistants). The commands you send work through the log file functionality or a direct network connection. Unfortunately, many of today's games do not support real time log files anymore, so this tool bypasses that problem and lets you send commands directly from the Control Assistant to your boxing tool via a shared network file or even through our Pearl Link network system. Another important feature we have added by request is the ability to control a second character that is running the same computer via this tool (be sure to try the demo if you want to do this, as it may not work with every game). The Control Assistant has greatly enhanced our gaming; we hope it does for you as well! With the new Mini Macro system you can tweak the tool to do about anything you can by hand. Repeat keys, hold down keys, click the mouse a few times, take quests, ect... They can also be sent over Pearl Link directly to the Boxin Assistants.

A typical setup: I setup The Control Assistant so I can pull a mob and hit it. The tool then takes over seamlessly using my battle settings, slowing, dotting and healing the group as needed. It also tells my other boxes to join me in combat. After the mob is dead The Control Assistant tells the others to stop and goes into standby waiting on me to pull another mob. It can loot and click boxes if needed. All the while watching my buffs in case they need to be recast. So when grinding for hours this this tools saves an incredible amount of clicking by automating all the repetitive tasks.

Power Leveling: A favorite past time of ours is running around with a newbie group while a higher level healer buffs and heals us. This is sometimes difficult by them being outside the group. Not anymore! You can use the control assistant to watch your groups health bars in the group and tell a higher level healer "outside" your group (Running the Heal or Boxin Assistant) who needs healing. So you can play the fun classes and never worry about heals or buffs at all. Just press start and the whole group has a dedicated healer who never goes afk. Fun!

2 Box multiple characters on the same PC: With the inactive window controls you can 2 box up to 5 characters on the same PC. Control 5 wow characters on the same computer! Works nice with vanguard to but who can run it... This feature is not working with EQ2 so if you plan to use this please download the demo and give it a test first.

This tool was designed with remote control in mind. Most all the features can control our other programs. Lets cover some of the tools abilities so you can get an idea of what is available.

New in the 5.0 release:

Mini Macros!: Mini Macros are an embedded scripting language. All command and target boxes that would normally take a key press like 1 can also use a Mini Macro. These are really powerful and allow you to write your own function for every action. You can send multiple key presses, random pauses, hold down keys, type commands, repeat keys several times, shift click the mouse, for each action... Mini macros can be sent to your game window and across the Pearl Link connection directly to the Boxin Assistant. So you can bind one key to a Mini Macro and have your whole group click the screen, back up, wait a random time, take a quest ect... Change from dual wield to a shield. Load a different spell set... Even keys stringed together like: "hutk2". Only your imagination limits you.
A Mini Macro Builder: is integrated into the tool now. This window allows you to construct your own Mini Macro to do what ever you want and simplifies creating complex macros. When complete you just click copy and paste it into your action box.
On Battle Start and Stop: The battle window has been revamped and at the bottom of the window there is now on Battle Start and on Battle Stop commands. These commands can contain a Mini Macro and are sent at the beginning and ending of battle. We have found them greatly helpful. For instance you can have a bow class take a few steps back at the start of battle. Then at the end of the fight target, follow you and loot. When Boxin several characters add a random pause on Battle Start so they all start combat at different times.
Color Check Variance Controls: These new control's located in tool settings adjusts the color sensitivity and search area of all color checks in the tool. If heals are being triggered to often due to slight variances in the health bar color or location you can increase these to fix it.
Context Sensitive Tips: All controls now have tool tips that explain what they do and what you should enter into them.
Rebuff Group Command: There is a new control at the bottom of the Buff window that allows you to recast all the buffs and tell your Boxin Assistants to all rebuff as well. Really handy after a group wipe.
Auto Start Pearl Link: You can now auto start Pearl Link. When checked the Control Assistant will auto start the server and the Boxin Assistants will auto connect. So just open the Control Assistant and then the Boxin Assistants and they will auto link. Just open them and start hunting.
Master Loot Controls: We added a Master Loot Control window that allows you to assign one hot key for looting. You can send a Mini Macro to your game, text to the log file, and a Mini Macro over Pearl Link with the one key press. So press one key and your whole group can loot. We find this so helpful these days with all the collection quests we have do when boxing several characters. You will not want to play without this once you try it!

20 Battle Actions with fully customizable color checks, cast times and recast times. 5 for melee with no power checks made and 15 that have to pass the power threshold to be cast.
24 Single Target Buffs that have fully customizable target, cast and recast settings.
8 Buff Sets. These can cast a buff on 9 targets or can be reversed to cast 8 buffs on 1 target. Great for easing the strain of buffing full groups. Press 1 key and cast 96 buffs!
20 Visual Triggers that can watch the screen and and send a key, click the mouse or both along with cast and recast times. They can be used for healing your group or simply camping and clicking something.
NEW! Pearl Link Network System: allows you to link to the boxin assistant and send keys directly to their screen without a log file.
Remote Log File Writing: Most games today avoid active log files and it makes boxing more difficult. The Control Assistant can write your own log file to control other machines in real time and privately. Most all actions can be logged so your Boxin' Assistant, Heal Assistant and Combat Assistant can be controlled through your network.
Inactive Window Controls. You can send keys to an inactive game window which can help you 2 box on the same machine. Play one window and send keys to the other as well. * Note: This feature does not work in all games due to the way they handle input! You can test your settings with notepad though, which always works. Please try the demo if you plan to use it for this!
Priority System: All actions in The Control Assistant have a "priority" attached to them. This allows the tool to make intelligent decisions on what needs to be done next. The Control Assistant simulates multi-tasking by constantly scanning the screen for something that needs to be done and then adding it into a queue. The queue constantly runs executing the highest priority item. The priority system runs from 1 to 100 with 100 being a top priority or emergency and 1 as least important.
User Profile System: Create all the profiles that you need. Each profile can have all their own settings, skin choice and more.
Monitor System: That displays what The Control Assistant is doing.
20 Skin choices. Each profile can have its own skin choice.

Totally stand alone tool that depends on nothing outside of itself. Nothing else to install. The tool is not dependant on any game and their patches will not affect it. It is simply a "Screen Reader". It reads colors (that you setup) and sends the keys (that you set up) accordingly at the time you specify and tries to do it all in an intelligent way.
Extremely versatile. No color settings or locations are hard written into the program. You can tweak every detail of where to check, what to check for and specify the reactions. It is extremely detailed and customizable. There are over 1,500 saved settings per user profile.
Works with any user interface or any custom "UI's" as you set every location and color yourself with a simple click.
Profile management that allows you to have an unlimited number of characters saved in the tool. Load any one of them on the fly. Change from game to game with a click. The tool automatically loads the last profile used on startup. Features to "Save As" and "Rename" profiles.
Backup and Restore features to make a backup of your configuration settings in case something goes wrong. You can simply restore all your settings from a previous date with a click.
Small unobtrusive interface that keeps you updated on exactly what the tool is doing at that particular moment at a glance CTRL+Right click to move..
Customizable Window Title: The window can be named anything that you like.

Battle Settings Window: Let your character make intelligent combat decisions with 20 battle settings that will check for your power and can be set to automatically trigger on any visual setting. Each action has its own priority and will be done in that order. Examples: Only cast on yellow con mobs... Only cast a DOT if the mob is above half health... Snare if low health...

The Mini Macro Builder helps you build custom macros to do more complex things. We sometimes forget the correct syntax and find this little tool very helpful. Mini Macros can even be strung together in chains.

6 box LOTR with ease!

Visual Trigger Settings: Loot, Heal, click on rare items or anything you want your character to do with our new Visual Triggers. The tool will prioritize your options based on your settings. These can watch the screen for a color change and send a mouse click or a key press or both and write something to the log file to trigger your other characters as well. For instance The Control Assistant can watch the targets health bar and go into combat when it see's the color change, also telling your other characters to assist you. When the mob dies The Control Assistant can stop combat and tell the others to rest. An automatic group assisting you. The priorities allow the tool to make intelligent decisions on what should be done first. Our favorite is to run a group of newbies around and have it watch our groups health then tell a boxxer outside the group (who cannot see our health) to heal us! It is also really nice when playing a healer and a bit tired. You can set it up to watch the groups health bars so you do not miss a heal and then relax and chat.

The same command you use to hop on your horse can tell your other characters to do the same.
Have your whole group follow you with one key press or wait while you go pull.
Have all your boxes recast their buffs while you auto recast your own...
Have the entire group cast a DD at the same time...

The Pearl Link connection allows you to connect your Boxin Assistant directly to a Control Assistant with no log file and it is as simple as a click. This allows you instantly send commands and Mini Macros to the Boxin Assistant with a direct connection. No log file needed. Though you can still use it if you want. For instance you can use the game log file to check when to recast your shaman wards and still use the direct connection for starting / stopping combat / follow / wait here ect... Here are some examples that we use ourselves:

Example 1: You want to power level a group of newbies with a level 70 healer that is too high to join the group. You take the Control Assistant on your main computer you are playing and go to Visual Triggers, then set up heals for the group mates. Specify a key to be sent through the network that triggers a heal command on the Boxin Assistant computer. Let's say on the Boxin Assistant level 70 healer I have a macro in hot key "2" that will heal my group mate 2. Something like:

/target <name>
/cast <heal name>

So I set up a Control Assistant visual trigger on my group mate (2) health bar that will trigger when their health goes down. I then set it to send key "2" over the network to the Boxin Assistant Healer who is outside the group. Now when the Control Assistant inside the group see the group mates health go down we send key "2" across the network to the Boxin Assistant Healer and they cast a heal on group mate 2. Complete and fast healing from outside of the group. You do not have to worry about it at all as it is completely automated and you can just concentrate on playing your class while your whole group is healed discreetly and privately through the network. Even when you go AFK for a bit and your friends keep pulling.

* You could alternatively use a Mini Macro for this with </target name></cast heal> and just send it over Pearl Link.

Example 2: You have a shaman, wizard and cleric in your group and are having troubles with running mobs. Then you might want to have different actions for the same key. An "Emergency" key so to speak. So you assign a Control Assistant Hot Key (Remote Box Controls) to send "9".

On the Shaman you can set "9" to root the mob.

On the Wizard you set "9" to the biggest nuke or slow.

On the Cleric you set "9" to a stun.

Now when you press the "Emergency" hot key on the Control Assistant your group will devastate the running mob in unity.

Only your imagination is the limit. Some common things we do is tell the entire group to Follow, Wait, Loot, Mount up, Evac, Assist... So many things you can do and you will always be tweaking and adding new things. You can use the log file triggers watching the games log file and the network commands simultaneously.

Buff Settings Window: Cast 96 buffs with a single key press or simply let the tool recast them automatically on a timer. In addition to 24 single-target buffs, we introduce Buff Sets! This handy feature allows you to set up one buff and cast it on up to 8 targets. Or, you can reverse it and cast 8 buffs on one player. Moreover, the tools can be set up to cast all your buffs at once or one set at a time on command. And, because they are prioritized, you can now send the command to buff and the Control Assistant will cast between battle actions whenever there is a free moment. The buffs just remain in the queue until they are cast. Press the Rebuff Group hot key and all your Boxin Assistants will rebuff as well.

Inactive Window Controls: Send keys to an inactive window on the same computer (this has been a much-requested feature but it DOES NOT WORK WITH ALL GAMES!

Downloads, Upgrades & Support:

When you purchase a tool you have free upgrades, support and downloads for one year. You get to keep the tool, of course. It's yours and will continue to work indefinitely. We do not shut it off. You should back up your serial numbers and downloads within the year's time.

After the first year, you can purchase extended support for as low as $10 for 90 days. Any support purchase covers all your items, including all previous purchases. Alternatively, any time you purchase a new tool, the support term is automatically extended to one year from the date of that purchase for every tool you own on that day. To clarify the last point, if, for example, you purchased a Boxin' and Control Assistant three years ago, then buy a Twist Assistant today, all three tools would be extended to one year from the day you bought the Twist Assistant.

We tried to make the plans as generous as possible, while still making it worthwhile to maintain the tools on an ongoing basis. The support plans help us offset the cost of maintaining the tools, reactivating game accounts after a patch, and maintaining the website here year after year. We appreciate the continued support of all our loyal customers!
