AutoHotKey

im having trouble finding/setting up a good script for this tho, as you have to write it from scratch >.<

Would be nice for a simple app. to just send keys to another window, without having to mess around writing your own scripts.

ok how about using the other software listed on this site the multiBoxsoftware i know it is meant for 2 pcs but would it work for 2 copies of wow on 1 pc using 2 monitors?

how do i get ahk to work for clicking ? i want it to work so when i right click a mob my other toons will right click and pick up the items as well

i have
Click Right::
KeyWait 7
IfWinActive, World of Warcraft
{
ControlSend,, Click Right, ahk_id %wowid1%
ControlSend,, Click Right, ahk_id %wowid2%
Return
}

but that dosnt work ><

I'm interested in knowing how you guys loot with the alt toon. Do you alt-tab and manually loot everything?

Contrary to what others do here, I don't do collect quests :/

I just grind instances so only main loots and trades it to others for bag space.

But, if you had one of our Vetra KM switches, you can switch easily and use the same mouse to loot.

Better yet - you can set up each of your 5 person as a potential leader, switching leaders (with the appropriate macros - at least I do anyway) when one dude is done questing.

Overall, I find collect questing boring. I can kill for exp just as much, if not more, on the time it takes me to run from the quest guy, collect the stuff, and run back. Usually it's the running that takes too much time and I'd prefer to just grind it in one spot - like an instance :)

I've been trying to set up AHK to work with my keys that are shift binded. It seems that it actually requires me to click shift+# rather then clicking a macro binded to that key. Does anyone know if there's a way to set it up so when I click the shift binded key it sends to other client?

hello, I've got 2 simple questions just to make it clear (my logic sux and I am noob in PC languages :P).

First of all, I have binded on 1, 2, 3... etc some spells, so when I hit for example button "1" on main character, it casts a spell and 2nd character casts a spell binded on "1" as well. But looks like it duplicates or something because sometimes I get double message like "the target is too far away" and as well when I press "1" in chat box I get "11" instead of needed "1". Can this thing be solved?

[code:1]WinGet, wowid, List, World of Warcraft

~1::
KeyWait 1
IfWinActive, World of Warcraft
{
ControlSend,, 1, ahk_id %wowid1%
ControlSend,, 1, ahk_id %wowid2%
Return
}
[/code:1]

And 2nd question. I use keybind for "shift+1" - I have found only one way to do that:
[code:1]
WinGet, wowid, List, World of Warcraft

~Shift & 1::
KeyWait shift
IfWinActive, World of Warcraft
{
ControlSend,,{shift down}{1 down}{1 up}{shift up}, ahk_id %wowid1%
ControlSend,,{shift down}{1 down}{1 up}{shift up}, ahk_id %wowid2%
return
}[/code:1]

Well it works, but I dont like the way it does. I have to push "shif"t, then "1", then release "1", then release "shift" key just like it says in script.

But it kinda sux for me, is there any way to make it like that - push "shift" and "1" in the same time and then release both buttons in the same time?

Thanks.

What would I put in there if I wished to use the numpad keys?

Hey, I'm new to the dual-boxxing thing, so Im starting small with just 2. Anyways, back on topic.

It seems that when I bind a movement key for WoW to it, it, you know, just makes you stutter in that direction. Is there anyway to cause it to send that key for as long as you hold it down, like a regular keyboard? Oh, and...

[code:1]#IfWinActive, World of Warcraft
~Control & 1::
ControlSend,,1, ahk_id %wowid1%
ControlSend,,1, ahk_id %wowid2%
return[/code:1]

I'm trying to get it to send 1 to both the original and second WoW instance when I press control and 1... that however isn't the case. Any ideas on fixing it?

Its actually doing exactly what its told.

You press 1 on one window, thus "~1:: "

Since you pressed 1, you already have a 1 in window 1.

now, that 1 also triggered the script, so you get 1 twice in window 1, but only once in window 2. Understand? Here, in code...

[code:1]~1:: you pressed 1, so its there in the first window.
KeyWait 1
IfWinActive, World of Warcraft
{
ControlSend,, 1, ahk_id %wowid1% that 1 triggered this 1 in window one.
ControlSend,, 1, ahk_id %wowid2% the original 1 triggered this 1 in window two.
Return[/code:1]
