First stop should be the wiki button near the top of this page

here is a link http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki

within there is a getting started section... if that doesn't give you enough to get up and running, check out the stickies in the New Multiboxers section (the one below this section)

This community is always willing to help, but like most communities it helps those most who help themselves first

Such a simple thing like starting multiboxing has plenty of resources to read, just hit up the wiki and the beginner forum and if you still need help hit us up. Multiboxing doesnt take 10mins to get going, expect to spend all night and not be satisfied, starting out new is always a prick.

Aye nothin wrong with takin yer time to learn it, I came back constantly while I was still getting started to reference the AHK threads and other scattered threads relating to macros and such; I'm still figuring some things out too, Multi-boxing is still an ongoing learning experience, s'what these forums are for, to share and maybe teach others something new even if they're oldbies =)

when using keyclone w/ maximizer, is there a way to set a game controller to one of the windows, and the keyboard mouse to the main? what im trying to do, if possible, is use my nostromos for my 2nd window while using my keyboard and mouse for the main.

also, the $20 reg fee for keyclone, thats a one time thing right?

thanks again!

Work out one thing at a time, to stop yerself getting overwhelmed....

Even if you have 5 accounts... start with 2, get the macros working.... Get the screen resolutions and standard UI's working, then add more as you feel comfortable.

It doesnt need to be perfect to start, just 1 spell, follow and assist gets you going, then add more/get more complex as you go...

Likewise, 4 months or more now and still not 100% happy and sitting in bed at night thinking how I could improve my setup more.....

But good luck and take the time to read/search for what you need and you'll get there.

================================================== =

On a side note my pally friend who I arena with told me "Omg my brother in law mage does PvP with 100% keybinds" "How crazy is that!"

I advised him that mboxing for me relies 100% on keybinds.

He said "yeah, but you just mash 3 or 4 buttons no?"

Nah, I replied, I am running at about 35 keybinds with various modifiers now.... Started with about 4, but as you level you develop more.... Food for thought.
