Alright, so I started multiboxing again with Keyclone. I've got v1.9i and I encountered some sad issues today.
After a while, it simply stops working. I can click around buttons, but basically nothing happens until I reboot Keyclone. Very, very annoying issue.

Found similar topics related to my case but no actual fixes, rather people left alone with their issues and questions.
I'm running Keyclone on Win7 64-bit, firewall shouldn't be the issue as it's allowing its operations fine, tried running as administrator (even though I'm only administrator of the computer being only user) still a no go.
Could 3rd party softwares cause compatibility issues? Such as Steam, Xfire, IRC or MSN? As I'm running all of them at once.

I hope someone could help me with this rather than being left alone like too many other alike. Thank you in advance.

Not sure on the 3rd party stuff, I believe IS Boxer doesn't like Xfire so an incompatibility is a possibility.

I'd suggest contacting Rob directly.
You can find his phone number on his site.

It unlikely gets fixed, probably our conversation would end in his words of "i'm sorry but there's nothing i can do, it sounds like an issue at your end" so I rather save some money by not calling.

And I think I can live with this. Apparently, it only acts up every now and then and I rarely get a chance to modify settings from fly but instead I have to close down Keyclone and boot it up in order to modify something. Otherwise it works flawlessly in-game, which is all I care about for now.

Keyclone [the author] has apparently returned to this site, at least he did for a few days. Perhaps he has something up his
sleeve and will be coming out with a newer, updated version of Keyclone, I have no idea.

So, your choices are:


1. Suck it up and deal with outdated, possibly buggy, software.

2. Research a different software solution that fits your needs.
IF YOU CAN DREAM IT, YOU CAN DO IT!

but when the keyclone crashes and you have to restart you can't use pip anymore.

You don't need to call Rob, you can email him as well, though voice is your best bet for a speedy response. I'm sure the contact info is on his site.

To help him help you, I would:

open up task manager
View --> Select Columns...
Turn on Handles, USER Objects and GDI Objects


Keep an eye on those numbers for the keyclone.exe process when Keyclone starts giving you trouble. Someone else that uses KC can relate what their numbers usually look like while boxing but I would suspect you shouldn't see any of the above numbers in the thousands, and memory usage shouldn't go over 50MB or so and will probably be closer to 5-10MB.

Thank you for this constructive reply, Ughmahedhurtz.
I just opened them new columns and will keep an eye on those numbers regarding Keyclone, we'll see what it'll show.
