Confused ... Autohotkey + Maximizer?

[zeebo323]

Is Maximizer exclusively a Keyclone program?

I'm using Autohotkey (mostly because it's free) and I want to really get the maximizer effect but it doesn't seem to be working for me.[/i]

WoW Maximizer is a stand alone application that you can download that will launch your WoWs according to your confirgurations.

KeyClone has its own "maximizer" built-in from what I understand. So if you use KeyClone you do not need WoW Maximizer.

AHK knows nothing about any kind of maximizing and only concerns itself with broadcasting keys.

----

So if you want to stick with AHK you can download WoW Maximizer, copy it to every WoW folder and configure the .ini file with your settings.

Agggghhh. Then I have no clue what I'm doing wrong.

I create the .bat file to open 3 separate windows, and when I click it, a MS-DOS window opens for a split second then closes.

Then nothing.

ever.

So, does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

My bat file says this:

[code:1]
REM batch file to launch 3 evenly spaced wows
REM Left monitor
c:\program files\wowburning2\maximizer.exe --margin 480,30,0,0
REM top of right mon
c:\program files\wowburning2\maximizer.exe --margin 0,570,0,840
REM bottom of right mon
c:\program files\wowburning2\maximizer.exe --margin 0,570,840,0
[/code:1]

Hi,

Try putting "pause" after each command so you can see what it says in the CMD window.

[code:1]
REM batch file to launch 3 evenly spaced wows
REM Left monitor
c:\program files\wowburning2\maximizer.exe --margin 480,30,0,0
pause
REM top of right mon
c:\program files\wowburning2\maximizer.exe --margin 0,570,0,840
pause
REM bottom of right mon
c:\program files\wowburning2\maximizer.exe --margin 0,570,840,0
pause
[/code:1]

EDIT: My 1st guess is that the - program files - is causing the problem. You will need to put the command in quotes because it contains spaces. Try:

[code:1]
REM batch file to launch 3 evenly spaced wows
REM Left monitor
"c:\program files\wowburning2\maximizer.exe" --margin 480,30,0,0
REM top of right mon
"c:\program files\wowburning2\maximizer.exe" --margin 0,570,0,840
REM bottom of right mon
"c:\program files\wowburning2\maximizer.exe" --margin 0,570,840,0
[/code:1]

Thinus, I love you.

The pause thing helped me realize what was wrong, and the spaces after program file is what was derailing the .bat file.


THANK YOU! I fixed it. Now I just have to figure out these resolutions. =]

I put the .bat file inside my directory WITH maximizer.exe and so I just took out the rest of the directories and left maximizer.exe --margin etc etc.

Which worked, beautifully. =]
