Its makes it easy when your working with addons and that sort of stuff.

Ok, I've done most of the guide but there are some things I'm wondering about.

My current plan is to make 2 shamans (got 2 accounts already) and dualbox them.
As the guide was pretty easy to follow, going from 3 to 2 was no problem (I guess).

But... my WoWAce shuts down after a while (WoWAce has stopped working), no matter what I do. I've done what I'm supposed to do with it but it's pretty worthless if I can't have it up?

I'm not ready to pay the Keyclone bill if it won't work anyway.

I hope I can get some help here :P

I have a question about the addon package. When I download it, all it has in it is a bunch of "addon files" but not the actual addons in their individual folders, and Aceupdater isn't recognizing them installed because they aren't really "installed properly" since they are not in individual folders. Any ideas on what i'm doing wrong?

Sort the Rar AddOns package?

yeah there seems to be something wrong with it

Hi folks,

First post so go easy. In all these guides it shows you splitting your monitor in to 3 or more sections so you can view each acct at the same time. Is this actually necessary though? If you have just the main acct showing on the top and the others hidden behind does this make the game unplayable when 3 or more accounts? Not sure why you have all the accts showing anyway as if you are grouped you should be able to see what is happening to the others anyway?

is there any truth to the saying that running your characters all from different folders might increase performance?

I was told that each char should have his own WoW exe b/c it makes it run smoother/faster.

Do you have an unzipping program like Winzip? Keyclone is an amazing tool to use for the very thing you are talking about. I play my shaman(43) and my lock(70) all the time together using simply keyclone.

That I have no idea about from a hardware stand point it can increase performance in actually loading something because two programs won't be fighting over the same file. However over time it may decrease performance simply because of fragmentation. I would suggest defragging it about once a week.
