^^ After reading the whole sticky, i noticed there wasnt a setup for 2 wow screens on 1 monitor. I would ask if someone could make a bat file , That can split 2 wow's Like 1 up and 1 down each other ( I got 1280x1024 ). That would be lovely. :) Still trying. But i am getting somewhere..
Sorry for bad english (Lovely Sticky btw) helped me a lot

Sorry i forgot something
About the KeyCyclone, After reading lots of post and the search button. I noticed that u need to make macro's. So when 1 press 1 button, it is gonna react on all the wow character's?
And should i start the Bat file first? Or first the Keycyclone? Since i havent found that part somewhere
Hello Symp,
I am new here myself and did a few searches in the forum to find the bat file info to run 2 on 1 screen too.. split 50/50 top and bottom. unfortunately it was in german but just stumbled my way with it enough to make it work.
However I have a ghetto 17" monitor so I only run it at 1024x768 right now and am at work so I am not much help. If I find the bat file in the forums again I will edit and put it in here for ya.
{EDIT}:
you need to setup the margin settings in the config.
there is a value for top and bottom.
first one needs 1/2 of your desktop height as a top-margin
second one needs 1/2 of your desktop height as a bottom-margin
i.e.
desktop size: 1024 x 768 (width x height)
768 / 2 = 384
## Arguments are top,bottom,left,right
#first one:
margin = 384,0,0,0
#second one:
margin = 0,384,0,0
My "GUESS" is that you need to divide your smallest number and put it in place of the 384 in teh quote above. Give it a try let me know if it works. If not hopefully someone can correct me. IE: 1024 /2 = 512. So just stick 512 where the 384's are in the batch file that you have seen in other posts.

P.S. I know that Keyclone can do all this for you automatically but I have not found a walkthrough guide on how to set it up right. I know you have to open the WoW's with keyclone but cant figure out how so I need a step by step guide for dummies still.

^^ Indeed, Totally agreed on your post. After trying to find more about KeyCyclone i found out that i first need to buy it.. I will ofc, but first i wanna see something that it really works. Cause i could buy it, but if doesnt fit my system it's kinda wasted money. I have found other program's but keycyclone is my first choise till now
Try this:
REM batch file to launch 2 evenly spaced wows
REM WOW1
c:\wow2\maximizer.exe --margin 512,0,0,0
REM WOW2
c:\wow3\maximizer.exe --margin 0,512,0,0
Also note: I have no idea why but I had to make 2 individual .bat files for each wow window instead of the above combined batch file.. you might not have to. could be a hardware issue for me.

WoW it's working fine, But another request..
My screens look kinda awefull. Very misplaced graphics. Is there a way to get beter graphics, maybe wow screen settings or something?
Oh yahh.. forgot about that
You have to set all your graphic setting the way you want them then go back to the setup thread and make the config changes to the config file in each wow directories WTF folder. Set it to the resolution you play it.
The original thread mentions how to do it.
