My problem is prety hard to explain but .. a picture sais more than a thousand words:

I used to have it as it is in the first part of the screen (left), but now its like on the right part of the screen.

My situation:
2 pc's, 3 screens
Middle screen has a normal 1920x1200 screen (my main).
2 other screens, 1 left, 1 right, both have 2 alt shamans running on 960x1200 (so a vertical split)
Now I used to do it with the first situation u see on the screenshot, which is perfect because it makes all text perfectly readable and such
Now after I installed vista 32 bit as 2nd boot (i first only had vista 64 bit) I installed all drivers etc etc, and keyclone, I copy my .ini file from my 64 bit windows, so it is EXACTLY the same. I start it up and poof.. I get what u see in the right part of the screenshot.

My 2nd pc (laptop) still works fine the way it used to and still has the vertical split like shown in the left part of the screenshot (correct)


What am I doing wrong?

it seems like your game resolution is off.

go to keyclone/setup/maximizer and click that region. check the game resolution (bottom center under PiP).
what is it set to? try setting it to "1-to-1"

remember, you must first select the region, then edit it. to select the region, LEFT click its center

let me know if that helps,

Rob

That wasn't it, but I did find out what was.


I got it fixed again by first reapplying 1.8g (when i updated to vista32 i also updated keyclone, didnt think of this).
I also double checked by applying new version again (messed up resolution again) and reapplying the old one, leaving the .ini untouched. Reversing to 1.8g indeed fixed the problem.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or so in the new versions. I can imagine I'm one of the few that uses a vertical split in the way that I do, but I find it really 'handy' to have everything basically the same 'size' as my main window, just narrower. It's a lot better than making characters look extremely thin

Im having exactly the same problem

only i have a 17`screen and having the maximizer setup so i get 2 WoW´s running horizontal, one up one down.

I now have the maximizer setup at the resolution 1600x600 wich should make it wide, and fix it.

but it seems its not fixing it.

Maximizer setup:

WoW running with that setup (missing 1 wow running, but this should do):

@stingc

you have the game resolution set to 1600x600.. but the region is only 1279x512

try setting the game resolution to '1-to-1' and see if that helps.

note: you'll have to restart your wow for wow to realize the change

no problem :D

if you could post a fixed pic, that'd be cool

note to others:
if you are using keyclone's maximizer and your minimap isn't a circle, then the aspect ratio is off. just let me know and i'll do what i can to fix it.

Little bump, problem got fixed.
I was silly enough to not find the -1, 1 u were talking about.. because it wasn't added yet in the version i was using ;D
problem is fixed now by using -1,1

Thanks!
