I am trying to run 4 or more WoW accounts at once, I'm not sure how exactly to get keyclone working.

My system can run 6 copies of wow with no problems, I have two 1650x1050 screens connected so split over two screens? (I dont know if i can pull 5 windows from screen 2 to screen 1 when i press hotkeys?

Please could I have some assistance?

Useful multi-boxing macros ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=188')

then just make them the same hotkeys if you wish or keep track as to which one is what.

for me on my pally, priest, mage this is my start to finish in hotkeys

~ spread out hotkey (with paladin still running in for tanking)
1 is my /assist drecan also /cast autoattack is next line (just because i was lazy and didn't want to do a focustarget target macro at the time)
2 paladin judgement/ mage frostbolt
3 priest /cast shoot (just for combat purpose and to make sure autofollow activates after combat)
4 mage frost bolt cast

alt+7 renew drecan
alt+8 renew mage
alt+9 renew self

ctrl+7 lesser heal drecan
ctrl+8 lesser heal mage
ctrl+9 lesser heal self

i'm about to take all my priest heal macros and add a focus target so she does the heal and then goes right back to wanding the enemy

if you didn't know, v1.9 shipped with the current list of maximizer layouts. you can just hit the import button and browse into the layouts subfolder.

as for setting up your wow macros, you can find a link to the focus based macro setup by right-clicking the tool tray icon/FAQ/"wow /focus based macro setup"

and of course, if you're still having issues, please feel free to drop me a note anytime.

have a great weekend,

Rob

what do you mean by 'exact same thing'? you could be confused as to what is possible within wow. if you think you'd like to move and they would all move the same way, to the same place, that just won't work since they all have different positions and direction vectors.

you need to have your 'alts' (an alt == the ones you are not actively using) all /follow your 'main' (your main == the one you are actively on)

once they are all following, you must make sure to put your movement keys on the do-not-pass list, otherwise the movement key will break follow on your alts.

with that done, you need to synchronize targeting. you can do this numerous ways, the simplest is doing a basic /assist macro to assist your main. this is not the optimum configuration, but it does work and is suitable to about 10-20 (although i have been told its been used all the way to 80). i generally recommend doing it this way to start, so you get use to multiboxing and aren't tripping over issues with macros. once the multiboxing stuff is second nature, then you'd be ready for a better/faster/less-keys-to-press targeting mechanism

there is a stickie (original was nuked :pinch: ) that shows a step-by-step setup for wow macros.

FAQ: step-by-step basic keyclone setup ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=8716')

this should help get you going with the basics. if not, let me know

go to keyclone/setup/do-not-pass and check 'white-list' ... when you do this, it means ONLY the keys in the list will be passed.

personally, i don't use the white-list, as it limits me too much.

most people ask this question because they don't want to have all their alts talking in guild at the same time. to avoid this... hit PAUSE (the override hotkey by default). it will pop up a MUTE box and while it's up, keyclone is suspended.... meaning, the keys you hit will not pass. very useful for typing passwords or talking in guild/trade/chat. just remember to hit PAUSE again to toggle it off, and keyclone will continue normally.

Anyway I can accept party automatically on the other accounts?

Also is there a list of wow commands for the macros?

yeah read the sticky in the addons section for jamba and how to set it up on the website you can download that.

pretty much read everything in the wiki and that will help you out and then if your still confused come back and ask questions. not trying to be mean but you asking for a hand out when all the information is available for you right here on the site, you just want a 2 second solution but you need to understand a good majority of WoW and how game play goes before you can honestly jump into multiboxing.

macros: never really did much with macros till shaman was 70 then went resto and found out how to have my heals use trinkets before a heal and what not, and then when i got really good at macros then damn near everything was macro'd on my mage from focus target polymorph to a cast sequence for a scorch, fireball, fireblast rotation :thumbsup:

It has good documentation on how to set up your first set of toons. I'm still working on tweaking some of the settings as well as learning to create useful macros. It's challenging 8)

I'm not getting this very well... I am < http://solidice.com/images/Ninjafade.gif somewhere over the rainbow>

I have 3 followers named: Lyz, Eyz and Uyz
The leader is Kyz

Only thing Jamba helps with atm is autoloot and showing the team on main toon (shows they following (green) and shows there % exp)

I dont understand how to get a good multi working.

Could someone help me from scratch..

I have PiP/Maximiser working so Screen 1 = Full screen
Screen 2 has my 3 followers.
All are mages

What did i say what was bad, I didn't remember typing anything bad... lol

Another note, Using Keyclone + Jamba but how can i change the window names of the WoW's...
First wow.exe to open Rename to S1, second to S2...etc upto S5

with keyclone you don't need to rename the instances of wow
