Affinity Problem in Vista

Had 4 WoW windows launched and out of sheer curiosity (due to strange performance issues I've noticed recently) checked the affinity of my WoW instances. All 4 of them were running on cores 1 and 2. So I had to manually change them, despite it being defined in Keyclone.

I checked with a guildy and they are runing XP and Keyclone is apparently setting the affinity correctly.

Latest version of Keyclone, so perhaps it was broken from a recent update? But at least I solved my FPS issues! Once all 4 WoWs are running on 4 seperate cores, it increases performance quite a bit.

thanks for the bug report... glad i stumbled across it...

and afaik, quad core vista affinity support does work... are you running vista 64?
please PM me any extra info that might impact

Yeah, Vista64. It was definitely working a while ago.

Small question from me here, I am not sure where but I read a bluepost regarding the affinity and that world of warcraft is only able to address two cores by standard.
I guess this is the case if you don't tell keyclone to assign client 1 to core 1 (and so on...) so he just goes and takes two cores by himself leaving 2 cores unused?

Yes, World of Warcraft uses core 0 and 1 by default.

But it is possible to assign other cores through keyclone so WOW will use them or is it limited to two cores?

Xorn

You can scratch this Keyclone, I figured out what I was doing wrong. Sorry about that!!

Yes Xorn it is possible.

I was using Maximizer to do my commands in keyclone. When I had one monitor I guess this worked fine and Keyclone was able to set the affinities right even though for my commands I was making Keyclone launch Maximizer.exe --blah blah blah

So instead I decided to figure out how to use Keyclones built in Maximizer thingy.

Hard to explain but I'll post some screenshots of what I was doing wrong. Whoops!

@d0z3rr
thanks for letting me off the hook...
i was staring at it going "it's one line.. how'd i mess that up??"

i hope the maximizer was simple enough to figure out.
let me know if you have any questions

btw, there is a beta if you would like to give it a whirl. so far, 1 bug reported... otherwise, seems happier
