I don't understand. I have AutoHotKey with the sample script running: http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/AutoHotKey
Yet, when I press button the clones fail to follow, basically they do all kinds of stuff like shadowmeld but they wont press the "2" key wich is configured for Arcane Shot.
Any help with this problem? I've had this problem before but tought it was becouse of my bad computer..
Btw that script works fine for 3-6 box but anything higher and it goes bonkers (?)
Autohotkey is unpredictable now (it used to work fine with wow all of the time) so I really wouldn't suggest using it. If you must, try one of the other free clients, or better yet just shell out the $3 a month for isboxer, it is definitely worth it.
I used ahk the first two times I attempted multiboxing (I did 4x druids to 60 in BC, and then a resto druid with a prot paladin during wrath). In cata I switched to isboxer and have never looked back. AHK is a great program for many things, but multiboxing just isn't its thing.
Are you referring to new problem surfaced when you are boxing more than 6 toons? If not, the "2" key not functioning will need more fault descriptions for troubleshooting purposes. BTW there is no reason I can think of that AHK will have issue with the button "2" and make life difficult for you.Quote:

A short delay (sleep) is done automatically after every keystroke sent by Send or ControlSend. This is done to improve the reliability of scripts because a window sometimes can't keep up with a rapid flood of keystrokes."
A very reasonable built-in feature, as AHK needs to serve user with slow machines.
My codes -
Process, priority, , High ; set the script to high priority
SetKeyDelay, 0
SetWinDelay, 0
SetMouseDelay, 50 ; I believe this setting affects the mouse click broadcasting reliability. Didn't test fully, but works for me
I sometimes boxed with 8 toons with a healer friend. This is the recent Lich King kill after I felt bored with DS.

Please note the killing style is catered to lazy man like me, and not for max dps.
My tanking and dps key is button "2"! BTW, running with 64-bit WOW clients, you should see good improvement in system performance. Rather significant to me.
Software is after all just software. It follows your instruction. Good luck, and have fun!
