View Full Version : Need multibox program that work with vista x64
Hello all!
I multibox in lotro, and have used Synergy for some time.
Now i have a new comp with a i7 cpu and want to use vista x64. Synergy does not work with that OS
I also need to be able to turn off the multiboxing broadcast. (like the mod'ed Synergy)
What prog would you ppl recomend for me? I dont mind paying for a prog if its good.
Thanks for all answers!

Keyclone works great, and if you have multiple PC's use Kavoom KM as well.
Keyclone and KavoomKM FTW!

Although its no longer supported/maintained I believe Octopus also works fine with Vista64, and is now free (and combines the functions of Kavoom and Keyclone).
Why do i need kavoom and keyclone?
I have 6 comps.
Cant run more than 1 lotro on 1 comp. I dont use any macros. Only need a keyboard broadcast prog. And i must be able to turn it of. (while im chatting in lotro the broadcast client must be of, if not all the chars "chat".)

Then you could just get keyclone for each computer.
The pause button setup makes it easy to toggle broadcasting.

Innerspace can work well, and I believe you can run 6 copies on one license.. although im not to sure.
The way keyclone sources his licenses i dont care for it to much, one because it requires you to be online. Which sucked for me because I couldnt use it off-line. So it would cost you the price of 6 licenses to get it up and running, a side note though its really easy to get setup and going and works great between numerours computers.

well, maybe hotkeynet ('http://www.hotkeynet.com') is a solution for you:
- its free
- can be used with more than one computer
- you can toggle hotkeys on/off
- can broadcast the mice
For more infos see the hkn-website, or the guide in my signature ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=16747') .

I say keyclone over all the others because its just easy to get up and running with key broadcasting. I've tried a few of the others but they are more work to get started.
Kavoom KM is just a must have if you have multiple PC's. What it does is allow you to move your mouse from one computers screen to another seamlessly as if all your PC's were just one big computer.
I'm sure some of the free options are pretty good but as a person who is willing to spend money on 10 accounts I have no problem paying for a software products if it is well written like Keyclone and Kavoom. The more money we spend to support these paid for products the more incentive there is to research and develop such items.

tough to instance without network access as well...

I'll 397th by saying Keyclone rocks.
As an aside, what online rpg can you play while offline?
Needing to be online to verify your license is legitimate does not impact my play of online games in any way.

Keyclone and IS both are good options. If your using multiple pc's then keyclone might be a good option, however, other than wow, I have run into issues getting keyclone to function with out IS's lock forward option.
If you have to use both... might as well use IS.
Keyclone is SIGNIFICANTLY easier to setup... however, if your comfy with setting up macros, reading text files, and tweaking your setup manually with people who are more than willing to help (lax and his group in MIRC are badass) then IS is much more powerful than keyclone and can do everything it can and some a bit better (Pip switching).
Regardless, its personal preference, but the main thing is.
Keyclone
Pro's
#1 Easier to setup
#2 Cheap price
#3 Well documented
Cons
#1 doesnt work as well with non wow apps due to no lock forward feature
#2 Requires contacting keyclone if you have switch pcs / reformat
#3 One liscense per pc
IS
Pro's
#1 Works with every game
#2 One liscense per 5 pcs
#3 Extremely quick clone switching (pip)
#4 Liscense tied to a log in / pw so reformats and new pcs are not an issue
Cons
#1 Setup time is longer
#2 Setup is requires editting text files and customizing your setup
#3 Documentation can be spotty. (however they have a MIRC with people to answer questions)
I use both...
Keyclone for easy setup, IS for guaranteed functionality and quick switch between clone windows.
