CPU configuration

[Ughmahedhurtz]

Regarding CPU, I presume you want to set the CPU affinity to different cores? If so, that needs to be set manually in the config.wtf as Octopus doesn't have an option for setting that.

MAXFPSBK = Max FPS while WoW is in the background. Means you can set that to 15 so your alts slow down when they're not the active window and will give you better FPS on your main.

After search in forum.. I found this topic.

Final was:

Ok, so if i understand this correctly, set all 5 instances of WoW in keyclone to use cores 0,2,4 and 6?
And no instances to use 1,3,5 and 7?

So I have a question, do I need to change something in config.wtf to increase performance? (I have no problems to play 5clients +watch video +few programs like opera, skype & so on..) just for future...
Or by default WoW use 0,2,4,6?.. and is there any topic " config.wtf step by step for noobs" ?

many tnx

edit: what is this options for? octopus - status - ... - "name & value"..

For future reference, I just tested this. It allows you to modify/add any variable value in the config.wtf. So you could, in fact, add a value

processAffinityMask = 255

and it would edit your WTF and add that value. Note that you'll need to run octopus as Administrator if you want it to be able to access that file.

Do you know how to open clients using Octopus with.. I don't know how to name it.. standard windows menu?.. with small buttons like minimize, close.. you can find screenshot:


I need this sometimes.. like when I start lvling professions & I need 5 maximized windows..

Disable maximizer for the clients (just set to to nothing) and it should keep the window buttons if you need them.
