    Default Enabling PTT in ventrilo with Octopus

    Howdy,

    Just got started on the whole dual boxing thing and do think it's kinda fun. Finally have Octopus set up to get the commands sent to my laptop so my two lowbie shadow priests can actually do thier damage at *almost* the same time (inherant lag ftw?). My only issue that I've discovered so far (which is fairly important to me) is that I need to have one key (the capslock key... :P) completely ignored so it can be sent to Ventrilo since it's my PTT key.

    Basically the way I have it set up:

    Desktop - WoW, Octopus Server, Ventrilo

    Laptop - (not the best for gaming, but for helping to powerlevel a priest.... it'll do) - WoW, Octopus Client

    What do I have to configure/set up/get taken care of for the capslock key to actually work in WoW while Octopus is helping me control my twin ladies of pain? It sends the PTT command when I have say... Internet explorer open (I can hit PTT while I'm typing this out, for instance), but not World of Warcraft. I put the capslock key in the list of "keys to not be passed through to the laptop", but it still doesn't want to pop push to talk.

    (This is basically a side venture while I await Wrath/3.0/etc. My mains are both 70, one is a raiding lock... so I can't dedicate myself to this full time... but it's something fun to do in the mean time!)

    Thank you for any help that can be provided.

    [wowcard][/wowcard]I am having the same type of problem with vent, keyclone, and multiple clients being run at the same time. 2 clients and PTT works, 3 or more and I have to turn off PTT because vent no longer recognizes the key. I've made sure that its taken out of any keybinding in wow, but still does not function correctly.

    Edit: ok, so I never really took the time to think about it, but i figured it out..lol. Don't know if Octopus would work along the same lines, but I just added Ventrilo into what keyclone passes keys to and it works fine now. Even set up a command profile and region in maximizer
