View Full Version : I've searched, and I *still* am having trouble.

Okay. I hate posting, because I can almost always find the answer by searching. I apologize in advance if I just went brain dead while I read the answer.

I'm running on a Macbook Pro, the OS is believe is on Leopard, don't remember what build. (I'm at work) 2.x dualcore w/ 2gb of memory w/ a nice beefy onboard graphics card. Semi-beefy at least.

I am trying to avoid paying for anything if I can help it.

I run 3x accounts in windowed mode. Paladin/Priest/Warlock and my wife does Warlock/Mage. (We're so awesome)

Macros are my friend, but... headache. Dualboxing the paladin/priest is easy enough, I didn't even need to really macro anything, but adding the warlock into the mix just adds like 8 more keys that I have to have.

I have clonekeys... but I can't seem to figure out how to blacklist keys, even if it did, I'd only have a handful to choose from, and I really suck at click-casting on the paladin, keystrokes = faster for me and I tank much better. I don't want to gimp any of the castbars up so if I decide to play that character solo, I won't have to spend 20 minutes just setting things back up. I'd like to be able to either manage 2 seperate keyboards that are recognized as being bound to any of the instances of WoW that I specify. I just don't have enough keys to bind to get near the functionality of multiple machines. I'm frustrated as hell and I need help. ><

If I have to break down and pay for something, I suppose I will, but I just need some good old fashioned guru advice, and I'm sorry if I seemed to ramble, I can't seem to think straight today, it's been fun at work thus far. =)

Thanks very much

Well, if you where on a PC I would suggest InnerSpace and ClickBoxer with Repeater. You can setup Repeater to broadcast the keys you want and ClickBoxer could handle the functions that you don't have on your keyboard.

-jUseless reply is Useless.


Now for something hopefully useful (Caution, I am by no means a mac expert):

Are you using your Function keys for anything really? If you aren't using them for normal spell rotation here is what I would do:

Unbind your function keys in the wow instances that are NOT your warlock.
Bind your function keys in your warlock wow instance to the main spell bar (or where ever you prefer)

If you do this then your function keys will get passed to each instances, but since they're unbound in 2/3 they'll only trigger spells on your warlock. I did some searching and I don't think 2 keyboards is easily feasible. So without buying anything I would look into this.
