WoW + Octopus - Sync Question :(

[Raze48]

So I got Octopus up and running, 2 WoW's 1 PC. It finds my clients and does its thing, but I find after about 10 seconds of action, my character get out of sync with one another and 1 toon ends up all out in left field willy nilly like lol

Is there any way around this?

I mean technically if they are right on top of one another and I am pushing the keys at the exact same time they should never get apart, but they do

Is my better option to put the slave on follow and just have my action bar command go through and forget about dual movement buttons?

My bad, I did a search, found out its unavoidable. Just gonna make a follow macro and make the action bars shared.

Anyone have suggestions on looting quests?

If you're using octopus, enable the mouseclick broadcasting. It is le rawr.

I find that because the angles on the cameras that the two clients are running differ, clicking on a body on one screen is no where near the body on the other.

Any suggestions to streamline loot quests?

I add the following line to my main attack macros:

/script SetView(2);SetView(2);

Once you go in and set your view "2" to all the same in your config.wtf, you're golden. Then they all click mostly the same spot. My main is usually zoomed out a bit more so I have to click once on the corpse for my main to loot/fly/sell/etc. but then it's one click for all 4 alts, possibly 4 more just because quest items can only be looted one person at a time.

[edit] Change the following lines in your config.wtf file:

SET cameraDistanceC "50"
SET cameraPitchD "65"
SET cameraYawD "0"
SET cameraPitchC "45"
SET cameraYawC "0"
SET cameraDistanceB "30"
SET cameraPitchB "30"
SET cameraYawB "0"
SET cameraDistanceA "15"
SET cameraPitchA "30"
SET cameraYawA "0"
