Hi all guys i'm new to dual-boxing so i'm trying to get what i'm doing wrong at the moment.

I'm using octopus on a single pc, all configured like the guide on the wiki (using 1.3.5f if i'm not mistaken though even if the guide is for 1.3.2).It all goes well for my 2 screens.the 2 accounts work fine if I enable the key broadcasting but..With cursor and clicks it's not all right....The cursor isn't really synched, it a little lower than in the first screen were I use the main,and clicking on quests is kinda hard..plus if I hit both mouse buttons the mouse goes away and I get to move the camera instead...

Being honest i like octopus since it's free and i'm not that sure I'm so into dual boxing to get keyclone so what should I do since i'm 99% a clicker?XDCan't figure ou what's the problem with the mouse with octopus, it kinda works but that "kinda" isn't really what I'm looking for.

I play with vista 64 bit run as administrator with no UAC active anyway.Could it be some missing setting or what?XD

Also the macro sections of wiki is nice but still I'm having problems using 2 melee characters...mostly the paladin is there to leech and sometimes heal/buff since I can't seem to get him into melee in a fine way..changed the keybindings but still positioning him is a pain being a clicker like I am xD

Thanks for the help and for the awesome site =P

About the mouse sync, how are the window alignments? Let's say you run them both in window mode with one WoW window on each screen. On screen 1 you got wow in windowmode, covering the whole screen except the task bar in the bottom. On screen 2 you have it window mode over the whole screen, with no taskbar. If this is correct the sizes of your WoW-windows are the not the same. Wow window 1 are a few pixel's "shorter" making the cursor a little bit higher then the other screen.

This will easily be fixed by making both windows window-mode but also checkign the maximized box.

If im completely off the track please tell me, but it's hard to help you with that unless you post a screenshot or something.
