Dear fans!
How to apply mouse-click-guided-aoe skills at once?
Yeah! My druids (5 of them) reached lvl 41. Historic event: owl-form and hurricane (I cant believe I was so clazy to do this but it is so fun I soloed all dungeons now Zul farrak comes!)- an aoe skill with mouse click (I am noob I did not know it would be a mouse click skill). Please tell me is there any hope or way to apply such a skill as hurricane with mouse click required to locate its aim (I have seen similar skill on dk) on all five windows?
My guess is probably not possible. I think only some illegal software could do it - and I want to stay legal no hacks. But if anyone has come out with any clever idea to allpy aoe-mouse skills please let me know,
Thank you!

When I was running mages I had the same issue but came across a command line mouse program that would send mouse clicks to specific areas of your screen. I didn't implement it as I moved onto shamans. Depending on how you use it may/may not be against the ToS but you should check it out with blizz first. I tested it at work on office apps and it worked fine as it handled window focus well ie when sending a click to a window that you don't have focus on it seemed to set that windows focus immediately.
here's the link: http://sourceforge.net/projects/sendmice/
description : SendMice is a commandline utility to send mouse actions to the system
as if they were done using the mouse. Is the equivalent of WSH
SendKeys, but for mouse.
edit: I'm just going to point out something that anyone will discover after playing around with this utility after about 1 minute: how you use this is up to you - if you use the full functionality of sendmice then you'll probably break ToS, however if you break it down into separate batch file ie one file for positioning and other for the click then I don't think you'd be breaking the 'spirit of the game'
To not break ToS I envisioned that I would have this voice controlled and say something like:
mage1 initiate : which would send the cursor to the blizzard icon
mage1 click: which would send a click
mage1 blizzard: which would send the cursor to the middle of the wow window
mage 1 click: which would click starting the blizzard
of course with sendmice you could do that on one line and include commands for all mages in one batch file and just say : blizzard
again it's up to you
let the flames begin

you can Aoe from Keyclone by setting a pass mouse click hotkey in setup. and have the abillity on shareded keys. It seems to work ok but you seem to be only able to AOE from the same class toons eg. All druids. I tryed it to Mage AOE while on my Pally and it doesn't seem to work. but i sould get it to AOE if on both mages. Make sure you have the views on them set to the same so that the targeting will be close.
Here is another good post on the subject.
A neat macro to easly cast ground targeted spells (hurricane,treants,blizzard etc) ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=18250')

I use keyclone. I tried the option mouse-map on keyclone and added the F4 button for hurricane. It does not work. Now I try to figure out what "mouse-map" is. It sounds as if by pressing F4 It should start the huricane spell in all four windows but this is not the case. Now I look for HKN that may do it? I like keyclone I would like to stay with it,
Help if you can. let me know
1) If you know a solution
2) if you know what "mouse-map" under setup in keyclone is supposedly do - or why it does not work for me
Thank you!

I think mouse map only changes around the buttons on your mouse.
What you need is the mouse click broadcasting function.

I believe Keyclone mouse-map will take mouse buttons as input and broadcast keys. For example if you had a side button on your mouse, you register it as the input and map it to Y, then the slaves hear "Y" whenever you hit that button and do whatever you bind it to there.

I just push the button for these spells and then quickly click on each window and deploy it. There's no perfect way because even with broadcasting you might not get the perfect spot for it.

HKN works for software boxing. I have my middle mouse key set up so that it sends left click to all WoW windows.

Theres a link on how to do it in my sig. Not sure if it applies to keyclone since I'm not entirely sure how mouse positioning works with it, but its an option.

HotkeyNet can do this. Here's a little article about it:

InnerSpace is by far the best solution I've used for mouse broadcasting. Keyclone was far too slow for real world combat use and HKN wasn't 100% reliable (about 90% in my testing.) Utilizing IS for this combined with a macro to set your camera position is seriously full of win.
