Just getting started!

I finally d/l'd everything and read over the guide probably 5 + times.
Everything was explained well in the guide.
The only major problem i am having is about macros and the mouse over thing in keyclone.
I am only doing two accounts since i am new at this.
The problem i am having is, my second shaman is not doing anything.
Also the macros aren't really doing anything either, not sure if i am supposed to press a certain button to activate them or not.
Only one that works so far is the /follow main. =(
I have a multi-boxer on my server, don't know his name but i have seen him around so i know how it is supposed to look. The same movements and /cast spells etc. Mine looks like 2 individual players just with the similar name lol.

Please help with any suggestions. =P

Hi and welcome to multiboxing :)

First off macros - at low levels and while you are exploring what to do you only need 1 macro :)
/tar main
/follow
/assist

A fight for me goes like this :- main targets mob, press 1 (activates macro and other shaman targets mob), press 2 (all shamands lightning bolt), press 3( all shamans shock) mob is dead :D

this will do most of your initial encounters and you will refine it as time goes on. using focus or target of target macros. you may want one that just targets the main if your second shaman is the designated healer.

Second thing you need is something like autohotkey or keyclone that will send key presses to both screens at once. have this in place you are good to go :) There's lot more to learn and things to improve the job but this is enough to start.

Thank you! =)

Secondly, I am not getting the hang of the maximizer. I read something about 0,0,0,0 top left corner, but it got me confused.

Another problem is when i enter in numbers and scroll down to press apply, the mouse auto moves the box and ruins it.

Anyone have a good suggestion with just two boxes. :pinch:

Half and half, but it distorts the game and looks weird.

I had lots of fun trying to manually setup maximiser until I started using keyclone. I confess I just put in numbers and looked to see what happened :)

For 2 windows it depends on your setup, if you have 2 windows on one reasonable size screen I'd actually recommend not bothering with maximiser, open up two windows get them to a comfortable size and have them overlapping so by clicking on a window you bring it to the front. has the disadvantage of not being able to see what is going on in both windows but does mean you can be comfortable with the window you can see. if you have a large screen then go fancy :)

If you want to use maximiser then keyclone does it brilliantly. you can drag boxes to the size you want in the setup window. the biggest problem i had with keyclone is getting the mouse to let go of the box when i resize it :) but clicking enough times worked. you will also see a box showing the dimensions of the window box so you can fine tune your numbers there. Keyclone does a good guide and explains things way better than i could :) Keyclone also does a good job of adjusting the picture resolution to the box size you want so the game won't look too weird :)

Hope that helps

TY so much for your help. :D

Hopefully i can get a smooth start now! haha

btw, in the upcoming release, v1.8g, the maximizer editor got some love... so it works a bit smoother now.

last night i think i resolved the focus-follows-mouse / mouse-spasm-jumpy bug... so i will be moving on to other issues before pushing v1.8g

keep an eye open for the release

Woot! Almost a month since last release. It's crazy to think of all the features that have emerged in Keyclone since the days when there was releases every few days :) Keep up the good work Rob.

i'm trying to do about a month between releases. i think every couple of days was throwing people off a bit

i suggested auto-update.. and i received negative feedback... BUT.. a voluntary auto-update .. hmmm

i can put that on the list :D

Yes, make sure it's optional :p I LIKE my old version thank you, every time I upgrade something that ain't broken it either ruins a part I DID like or simply adds new features that I, personally, don't need yet. (Though I do appreciate your constant updating and additions rob ;p)
