How are they doing this?

Taken from the WoW EU forum:

"Blizzard is NOT going to ban windows 10 functions … You do not need to /follow. Thats not how I got my long boi. I did not send my characters to same dungeon all together. They were in different instances. And I did not use a ‘3rd party software’ for it"

"Windows 10 allows you to do what Blizzard just said you cannot, but its one of the core functions in 10 - ability to send keystrokes to several apps at once. I mean … just tell windows to repeat keystroke later and its like 2 players."

The examples of his multiboxing seem to suggest he would just put his characters in a fresh instance/raid and then control them all at once. If he is using just windows 10 features i'd imagine the client stacking would be done with the 'virtual desktop', or the built in Snap feature (FancyZones maybe?).

With his key broadcasting? I have no clue what he is on about. He mentions playing in real time then talks about just adding a delay in the repeater.

I would love to know as well what that windows 10 function is

think i have it lol...Wubsie gave me an idea

and here we go

There is some delay when you hover over another window, but maybe someone is able to get rid of this.

or make a G-key with alt+esc to scrolling to next wow client - if you have a keyboard with G-keys

Just tried this and this is insanely good for stand-still farming, which i don't do lol.
When you stop spamming the g-key, it's hard to find your mouse and it takes a while before you get your bearings again, so not ideal for moving around a lot

not a big problem - with mouse auto forcus turned on - have the mouse outside the windows it stay there

been working out possibles ways to do hardware boxing and one of the simplest ways i have tested is running my 3 dps on their own computer in windowed mode. then having a macro keypad on that computer with macros/scrips saved on the keypad itself, no software needed to run.
running a macro like this gets all the dps to hit 5 where i have a gse keybind for their full rotation.
5 Alt+Esc 5 Alt+Esc 5
running separate computers for tank and healer with imput director. have yet to get a warning.

@Nokk - what keypad do you have that is saving its macros to the pad itself? I had sorta though my Razer Tartarus did that, but apparently its only the profile that's stored locally, all the macros are stored in software on the PC (razer central)

Rotating through the DPS like that works via Alt-Est since only the DPS are on that computer... Gets much more problematic if you mix the Tank or Healer on the same PC.

I think this is the first time I have seen someone recommended grouping the DPS on their own PC/VM. Pretty ingenious.

look up Koolertron on amazon.

the only issue i have with them is i haven't found a way to toggle on/off a looping macro but that would likely break tos anyway. you can however set a toggle for a single key which works great if you run it through a switch to single client pcs.

i got it because i couldn't use Logitech gaming software through kvm switch and it solved that problem just fine.

I tested something similar with my Logitech G613 Keyboard and G502 Mouse and they work fine when directly connected to the PC but don't work through my KVM (tested on my regular not synchronous KVM).

To not have to deal with that I went with a Koolertron Programmable keyboard which should be hardware based and hopefully will arrive in few days. Link for it is in the hardware section here:

Interested in what Nokk is using and I will add it to the hardware section as well.

Update: Just saw after I posted that Nokk also went the Koolertron route... The link for the Koolertron I ordered is above...

Yeah but others will and all that's going to happen is the next step - all boxing banned for good.

I won't be dropping any more money into the game after 13 years. Not worth it anymore. People on the forums are still complaining.. it's just a matter of time.

I completely agree with the sentiment that they "fixed" the wrong problem. They haven't even addressed stand-still farming and 4x2 herbing/mining at all, and I would have thought that was much of the main complaint from users.
