Anyone been successful with multiboxing more than one session per PC?

I have one computer I want to use to multibox 3-4 accounts... I can have them all logged in fine (I have been for weeks, just with the other accounts on /follow my main character)

I would like to be able to improve on this, and allow me to send keystrokes to the other clients at the same time... (For instance when I hit my hotkey 1 on my primary account, I would like it to pass through the other accounts and they do what is on the hotkey 1 for them also...)

I tried Keyclone, and it will not do it. The window has to be in focus for it to work...

Anyone have any suggestions that could help?



Thanks!



EDIT: I just saw a few posts from freddie saying he was working on it from Feb of this year... anyone have any more updated information, or does his solution work well enough?

will test it out tonight when I get home. Thanks,

I do not believe you can send keystrokes to DAoC when it doesn't have focus. I could be wrong. I tried Octopus 1.3.0 and it worked in a true multiboxed (e.g.: one PC per account) environment.

freddies hotkeydotnet worked great for me back when I tried it.

HotkeyNet was originally written for this exact purpose -- to send keystrokes to DAOC in the background. It does that quite well, although you have to fiddle with a setting to get good results.
