Aion to Dual or Solo Box

After finding out that Aion can be boxed i tried a little boxing on Sat + Sun (Only got to lvl 10). I was using 1 computer and 2 clients (pre-order and a fileplanet key) and I used keyclone. I wasn't too focused setting up macros and maximizer and stuff just wanted to see if it was boxable on my computer. I ran everything with default stuff and had 0 lag, but when i got to the major city i had a little bit of lag. I played to sorcerer, and all i can say is WIN (i wasn't even using the slow effect cause they would die before they got to me)

The only thing that was strange was that jump command would not go through to the other client. I even tried to map it to a different key and still had no luck. This isn't a good thing, because you need to tap jump twice to glide and if the toon on follow gets stuck behind something you cannot jump over it.

The other thing that got my a little upset was the follow command. Lucky that they have one, but it breaks every time that there is a spell cast. This wasn't a big deal i just got use to spamming the follow macro. The good thing is that you don't have to worry about range for spells, because if you are to far away the toon will get closer to shoot. Macros where also a little difficult to use too (probably just use to the wow marcos). I found that if I made a macro to one button to assist my main that sometimes the command didn't go through so i just made a macro to focus on my mains target (If anyone knows the macro to cast spell on [main's name] target that would be great). Don't have my macro in front of me but it was something like:

/Select [%Group1]
/Delay 0.5
/Select [%Target of Target]

Now to the question should I or should I not dual box this game?

Bad:
- With the jump not working this is going to be a big disadvantage, but the page up and down command (to open your wings to fly and land) work so that is good.
- Leveling takes a lot longer to do (had to grind 1 lvl to get to lvl 9, all quests where done. On a solo toon i was lvl 11 by the time i left the starting zone).
- Movement won't be as good because you always have to spam that follow command (plus i wasn't a huge pvp person in wow so i am not use to moving around). From the videos that i saw sorcerers are moving a lot.

Good:
- Less down time
- Mobs die real quick (i haven't even got to my more powerful spells yet)
- People soloing will think twice before they take me on in PvP
- If i can find a good healer and PvP will be a joke

Are you saying you got keyclone to work with 2 AIONs ? are you sure / how ? I've been boxing it the old way (see my other posts/threads)

Yup, found a post in here that you have to turn game guard off. There is a hack/patch/block (whatever you want to call it) that blocks it and acts as a "fake" gg (so when they shoot the 10 min check you don't get kicked). Once gg is off keyclone works except for the jump.

If you want i can send you a pm of the link. The reason i am not posting it here is that i am not 100% sure that it is safe. I ran 3 different scans on it and nothing turned up, but doesn't mean it is safe. I believe that most of the people are using it not to box on aion, but some people are saying that gg is not letting some people use certain keyboards and mice (plus when i used the block, my lag went down). You can disable gg yourself but i read it isn't easy and when you do disable it you will get kicked every 10 min when they do the check.

Edit:
Also was using 1 computer 2 clients. There is an option in the launch that you check off to have it launch multi applications. Just got to figure out how to use keyclone maximizer, i hate seeing the title bar.

Maybe Rob will put in a upgrade for Aion :)

I am pretty sure that disabling GG is not something that would be supported here. As much as it sucks, it's not something people should be doing if we want to maintain legitimacy as multiboxers.

I understand heffner. Probably the only reason why i said anything about this is because i read one of ellay's posts saying that he had to shut it down for keyclone to work.

I am pretty sure that disabling GG is not against the rules AS OF YET. Keyword, many people on the boards have been saying that they will edit the rules saying that if GG is turned off then you get banned when aion is released, but a large number of people turn it off to use some of there programs (example, windows media player, Anti Virus, keyboards and mice). I also read a couple of things about GG, like how it has full control over your computer even if the game is not running. Also a program that needs anti virus turned off to work kind of makes me question it. I have also read that NC Soft hates GG and that the only reason they use it is because they are under contract with them, and that contract is about to expire soon. But they also have that rule that makes them do whatever they want to do.

The reason that i didn't post the link to the site to block GG is not only because i didn't think it was 100% safe, but also because of the rules posting to this site (if it was illegal then i didn't want to promote it).

Heffner, I am not trying to be an ass to you or anything. I respect what you said and i am reporting this post to the admins. If this is against the forums posting I am sorry and you can lock or delete this topic.

It's all good. Was just preparing you for a potential onslaught of hate :P.

I hadn't realized it wasn't clearly stated in the EULA. I will have to actually read it.
