I'd love to help, however i'm not sure what your problem is:


I am not able to get my second char to attack when I do or walk were I walk though it will jump.

From this poorly worded sentence it looks like both windows are receiving an input as you can jump on both. Therefore you haven't set up the keys to repeat or vice versa. Look at the tutorials again, try again and then come back with any issues and a clearer question.

RAF is 90 days long you've got plenty of time if you just started... good luck!

How to use keyclone with World of Warcraft®:

run keyclone
run the WoW in Windowed mode (video setting, recommend 800x600 res)
click 'Add' and then click on the window you wish to control
- a list item should appear for that window
- you may edit the name of the application to help keep track of which is which
repeat for all your WoW clients
now the main setup... WoW macros
setting up wow macros triggered by keyclone

In order to properly control your other characters, you must have them follow your main character and cast on the right targets. Warcraft® offers macros that can help make this happen.

(for this example, my lead character is named 'lyndsy')

open the macros window (esc / macros)
create a new macro, select an icon and name it (ie: assist leader)
add your macro code (ie: /assist lyndsy)
drag the icon into your action bar
repeat for all characters except for the leader
do the same thing for the follow macro, but instead of '/assist lyndsy' it would be '/follow lyndsy'

For the basic setup, the assist and follow macro are the only two you'll need. when you are ready to attack a target, click on it with your main, then hit the button associated with 'assist.leader'... then just hit the fire button.

if you've done it right, all your clones should fire at the same target at the same time.

You can also combine macros, having the characters assisting your lead then casting.
For a full list of macro commands, I recommend: worldofwar.net

remember, in WoW when you hit an arrow key, your clones will stop following (as the just turned). you can add the arrows to the do-not-pass list, but i find it useful to be able to turn them in combat.

usage example

i use a wow /follow macro and when i move, i hit that and my clones follow me.

i also use the left+right mouse click-hold in wow to steer/drive. combined with the /follow, it works pretty well.

my next trick was to bind certain keys to various movements. i was triple boxing and one of the first things i normally do is bind a key to use to spread the clones out, and pull them back in. i used F12 to spread out and F11 to pull them in.

so.. i would go to the left clone, key bindings, and set strafe left secondary key to F12. on the right clone, i would set F12 for the strafe right. this would spread them out. (push and hold to watch them run). i did the same, but in reverse, for pulling them in using F11. the effect was like a -/+ combination.

so.. in using it.. i would hit follow... double mouse button drive to the enemy, hit F12 briefly, then a back arrow (puts my main next to the others)... click on target, hit my /assist key, then fire. dead target.

i also do pass the turn left/right keys so when i need to, i just spin them and keep firing. it does require you to un-learn using keys to steer, as they would fall off follow

fini

as you progress, you'll find more ways of working with WoW... hopefully this will help get you up and running.

I have setup my Keyclone a different way WOuld there be anychance I could talk to you on msn or the teamspeak server I am in ?

tbh i'm not the best person to speak to about Keyclone as I haven't used it in over a year and therefore not installed on my new comp, try the live IRC link at the top of the page, someone there should be able to help.

From memory, my do not pass list included wsadqer, window swapping F1 to F5, and used a focused/leaderless system.
