Hi.

I don't know how many characters you are boxing but first of all get a mouse broadcaster. The best way to do it is to have enough computers (I use octopus) to broadcast clicks to every single client. I use the same size monitor resolutions for my 3 box as well which helps. If you set both of your characters camera in the same view it will get it a little closer to on top of your mains. You can look up how to set your view to the same on both characters. The last thing i would do to get your volleys right on top of each other is to set a 2ndary keybinding on your alt accounts to move forward.
So with this set up you would run up to your mobs
Press your forward button to get your followers close to on top of your main
Set Camera view on all characters to the same (If you haven't moved anybody other than that all of your screens should look the same)
With octopus i have they same key that does all that turn on mouse and click broadcasting.(Mouse broadcasting just so i can see if i'm hitting the right spots on my other screens)
Then from there press volley on your main character and do as you normally would. It doesn't always work, and you have to make sure your pets have agro or it messes everything up.
The main goal is just to get all of your screens as close to the same as possible so that when you broadcast that one volleyclick, it is in rougly the same spot.
Without any form of mouse-broadcasting, using Keyclone, I press my Hurricane (or Volley) key.
Then move my mouse to each window and left click where I'd like it to center.
It's not as efficient as mouse-broadcasting, but its quick and easy, and works well enough for me.
How many clients are you doing that on? Sounds easy enough.
Goto my post here AOE with keyclone. If you are using keyclone this will help you out to set it up so you dont have to manually go to each screen. Doing this just takes practice getting them all to plant same spot. I actually had to make all 5 screens sizes the same so wherever i clicked the main curser all the rest did the same spot.
Hope this helps
I'm playing five clients on one monitor.
Mouse broadcasting is not a good option for me, as my windows are not the same size.
Same aspect ratio, but four smaller windows along the top, and one larger window on the bottom left.
With leaves a window on the bottom right for Firefox or a movie if farming boring stuff etc.
Actually mouse broadcasting is just what you need. This can be accomplished with Octopus, HotKeyNet, KeyClone and Innerspace for sure. I wasn't happy with the reliability of it in HotKeyNet (about 90%), and KeyClone was far too slow to accomplish it (though he posted yesterday that the delays while the mouse cycle from window to window are hopefully a thing of the past) so it was one of two major reasons I switched to Innerspace after over a year of using KeyClone.Quote:

Things to remember when using mouse broadcasting - you are sending a click to a 2D window on an X,Y coordinate that has been adjusted for scale. What this means is that it will NOT be the same place for all your toons in the 3d world hiding behind that 2D window. The closer to your center screen you get, the more accurate it is going to be. You need all clients using the same camera position, this is normally pretty easy between /follow and a /script SetView(5);SetView(5) macro... (SaveView(5) will update your camera saved view 5, I use it panned about 30% out and facing 45 degrees down at the back of my characters.)
Generally speaking for my hurricane needs this worked out well, my boomkin were all standing and casting hurricane around them, since to AE I'd pull the mobs and tank them in panzerkin form... for other needs I've used it for daily quests with vehicles that require targeting and such, sometimes with great success, other times not so much...
Seen below is a daily quest that doesn't allow /follow and requires mouse broadcasting to fire all 5... once you get the hang of this stuff, even lining up your toons for syncronized movement isn't impossible, it is a royal pita though.
