COMPLETE NOOB

[Sun]

I stumbled on all of this in the past few days. But I am having problems understanding how to set up my keyclone.

I have spent untold hours trying to get my Synergy to work. Nada. It seems I have to do some altering to the source code to get it to work thru my Vista Extreme.

I am not here to learn how to use SYNERGY.....KEYCLONE is what I need to understand how to setup. I want to run two programs atm...but would move on to more once I get the two down pat.

So I just need a few pointers from someone who has the knowledge.

my problem is I cant get to the first base.

I read and read but I cant get my keyclone to work with only 2 players.

Just need a little help with this...thx

make sure you click "add" and have both of the World of Warcraft's showing up on the list.

are both chars jumping when you press space?

if not, keyclone doesn't work.

if yes, set up a follow and assist macro on your alt, set an attack spell on both chars (on the same key), invite your alt to a group, let him follow your main, target a mob with your main, press the assist button and hit the button for the attack spell.

please...i want you to know that i really appreciate the post to help me out BUT....

could you give a step by step on how to setup kmap....please ASSUME i do not know anything (which I dont)...

everybody is talking as IF the other persons know what to do...i/we do not know...i may stumble into how to do this on my own but I am asking that somebody lead me by the hand...and stop assuming that i know which box to put things in...

I want to know how to setup my keyclone for macros...NOTHING ELSE. i got all the IP addresses and the multiple PCs down...i just cant get how to make the clones do things...

probably reading too much in this BUT will experiment further on the JUMPING thing mentioned.

[Sun]

OMG!

well I had to ADD JUMP to the keymap feature and FINALLY got both characters to JUMP which means at least my PC is not preventing the program from working.

I guess because nobody is reading this forum I will eventually solve how to use KC.

As I see it now...I may have to MAP each KEY from my PC to this KC program such as you do in WOW key bindings. Was hoping not to have to go thru this learning process but oh well, I guess.

[keyclone]

you do not have to use keymaps... they are more optional.

try getting the basics first, then move on to the more advanced stuff.

firstly, i'll assume you are using wow unless you mention otherwise.

follow these steps (which are in the tutorial on solidice.com/keyclone)

run wow 1
log in
select character you want

run wow 2
log in
select character you want

run keyclone
by default, keyclone has auto-add enabled and 'World of Warcraft' as the exact match title.
as such, you should see 2 wow entries.

if not, click the add button and then click the center of wow 1
repeat for wow 2

now you should have both wows in the keyclone list.

click on wow 1. hit space bar... both characters should jump.

you are now multiboxing. every key you hit will be passed to the clones.

i hope that helps.

As keyclone posted

1/ start keyclone
2/ start first copy of WoW
3/ start second copy of WoW
4/ check keyclone window -> should have 2 entries for WoW
5/ press jump key (default: spacebar)

All key pressed in the first WoW window will be passed to the second WoW window.

After that its all about macro's

I don't know what you've done but usually you start both WoW instances, create chars, log on with both chars, start keyclone, press space and both chars jump.

so it's on your setup that it doesn't work :)

I haven't asked this simple "press space - are both chars jumping?" to annoy you, it was just to see if keyclone works properly and if you need to add the jump to the keymap feature first then it doesn't work properly =)

yea it took me awhile thru trial and error to figure out that the program was not reacting properly. But I was just guessing this was the case. Considering I am day old with this program.

Thx for confirming that the program has built in features.

I may try to uninstall and reinstall the keyclone program and see if that fixes the problem. Otherwise, i may have to enter all the keys manually.

My other concern was my VISTA program keeping this program from doing what it was designed to do. I could not get SYNERGY to work at all. Even after I added to the EXCEPTION list. I had a similar problem with a BOT program I used to use then suddenly upgraded my XP to SP2 and nothing would work properly until the developers fixed the problem internally.

I am thinking that my security is too high on both of my laptops. I have programs that keep the smallest DIRT(junk) off my machine. And this is likely causeing me to have other issues. Oh well, the troubles I go thru to be safe and secure. :roll:

WELL DUUUUUH!...I am so used to clicking the screen. After reading the posts that were helpful. I decided to try actually hitting the keys on my PC. :idea: aaah haaaaa! the lightbulb just went on. lol OMG I need to go buy some more game CDs. lol

Try running keyclone as admin.

Right click keyclone and select run as admin see if that helps.

[Sun]

Ok....how do u keep the other from typing out what you type in chat?

[keyclone]

when you want to stop passing keys between the clones, you need to 'override' keyclone...

you can push the button on the keyclone screen or hit the associated override hotkey... which is PAUSE by default (you can set the hotkey in setup/override settings)
