Hey all. Quick question. When boxing with mages, how does one target areas of effect utlizing spells like Flamestrike, Blizzard, Etc. on mutliple instances across machines? Im using keyclone and mutliplicity for software across two PC's. I havent tried it yet nor know how. lol Thanks. :D
keyclone will have mouse click passing... technically had it before, but it worked like crap with wow, so i removed it.
once it's working better, it'll be back.
As I am running Pally + Mage^2 I'd be more than happy to help test. Especially since I can provide a vista point of view :).Quote:

I also have a custom made UI mod that resyncs viewports automatically when I enter combat.
You can also resync manually by pulling to a totally vertical view.
The ghetto-fabulous way I do it is hit the shared blizzard key, then rapidly flip around between the monitors targeting and casting. Since it's just a mouse position and click it happens pretty fast. With improved blizzard you can still chew through mobs pretty good even though the cast isn't simultaneous. Multibox's mouse sharing doesnt work for me at all in terms of identical cursor positioning. Haven't been worried about doing this enough to invest in a hardware solution.
Nice Setup Xzin. Im not using that many PC's but sounds darn cool. Maybe in the future when i can explain to my wife about 5 boxes running lol!! OUCH
Xzin, any chance you would be willing to share that mod for syncing the viewport? If you need a place to host it I would be glad to do so.
If you would rather contact me via e-mail, it's zanthor at gmail dot com. Even without the hardware multicast it would make it a lot easier for me to target on the one box... mouse move - click click, mouse move click click would do it nicely.
Thanks,
I've used this before with AHK.. it's not perfect but it worked. I would hit a key so all clients were in the same camera view and then hit CTRL-z to do the aoe. Each client needs to be maximized as AHK won't send to minimized windows

ControlClick Xx Yy, ahk_id %wowid1%
ControlSend,, {Ctrl down}z{Ctrl up}, ahk_id %wowid2%
ControlClick Xx Yy, ahk_id %wowid2%
Return
}
Still hoping to talk Xzin out of the camera alignment mod...
PM me and lets talk. I will probably share it.
all youd have to do is save a camera angle to a hotkey and broadcast the key to reset the angle/zoom.. but how can you guarantee that all your toons are facing in the same direction to cast the aoe?Quote:
