AutoHotKey

[Metho]

This is going to make you laugh, but your stuff is just a tiny bit jumbled up from making it work the way you want to:
[code:1]
WinGet, wowid, List, World of Warcraft

; *** Begin Action Bar sequence ***

#IfWinActive, World of Warcraft
~Shift & 1::
ControlSend,,{shift down}{1 down}{1 up}{shift up}, ahk_id %wowid1%
ControlSend,,{shift down}{1 down}{1 up}{shift up}, ahk_id %wowid2%
return


#IfWinActive, World of Warcraft
~Shift & 2::
ControlSend,,{shift down}{2 down}{2 up}{shift up}, ahk_id %wowid1%
ControlSend,,{shift down}{2 down}{2 up}{shift up}, ahk_id %wowid2%
return[/code:1]

By the by, I'm *just* starting to work with autohotkey, but the reason the switch was needed so that it only fires in WoW is because Autohotkey runs the script file line by line with the exception of hotkeys and hotstrings. So, you need that initial IF statement to run BEFORE the hotkey, so that IF it's NOT WoW active, SKIP this hotkey. Now... by my logic, you should be able to place a IfWinActive statement within a hotkey as well... but it just doesn't seem to work that way. *shrug*

I'm looking at this program and it kinda seems overwhelming and I bet that if anyone would modify this code so that it was just geared toward World of Warcraft or games in general and was simple to use, I'd bet that people would pay money for it.

Anyways I plugged in the the first script in this forum by editing my ahk doc then I ran it, then WoW. I then set both my mage's fireballs to number 2 keystroke and pressed 2. One mage began to fire and the other did not. Can someone help me with this.

What I would like to do is just have a script that will move both characters with the same keyboard bottons (awsd) and when pressing bottons 1-0 in one window, will do the same in another.

Right now this is looking kinda complicated so I'm installing WoW on another computer however I don't think I'll be able to multibox on it because of the amount of ram the comp has ie 512mb is crap.

I have a G11 Keyboard and I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to make the G keys work for only one client of WoW so I can have as many possible healing/support macros for my pally while I'm on my main toon

Thanks in advance

Change your macros to ignore input from the other client.

E.g. Alt+1 does cast bar 1 on one client. On the other, bind it to something else.

So is this program allowed to be used with wow. I don't want to start up 3 boxing only to be banned.

Bliz has not blessed it - I don't use it and it COULD be used for semi botting like activities. However, it also has plenty of legitimate uses. And a G15 keyboard or assistive technology or items to help with repetitive strain injury also have similar functionality..... so I find it hard to believe that Bliz would ban for use of it. But there is still a risk and it is up to you if you want to risk it or not. I personally choose to do everything in hardware.

[overkil2]

I see the wowid variable, but what would I use if i wanted to do this with EQ2?

[Runiat]

"Strain injury".. yeah I've heard of those.. the last 7 years I've been using a keyboard and mouse so much that by now doing so actually relaxes my muscles after overuse of pen and paper..

Anyway, to be of some help..

First of all you should know that Blizzard can ban you for anything or nothing, at any time or something they assume you might do in the future. That's what the EULA said.

Second you should know that they'd actually quite like people to 3-box as that's 3 times the subscribtion.

Unless someone here has actually gotten banned for using it it'll only happen if you use a delay function. You see, to avoid ppl using stuff like an advanced edition of the G15 to bot with Warden appears to have a function checking how long time there is between your keystrokes, and if 1.000 second pops up too often you'll be recieving a very polite /whisper asking if you're at your PC. The polite-bit is only if they're feeling nice, see the "First of all.." paragraph.

Stick with having it broadcast the commands and it wont do anything that couldn't be done with some fancy wiring, and so they'll have no reason to ban you for it. Againt the "First of all.." paragraph should be considered.

hello,

i am relatively new to this and have played 2 accounts at the same time but not using any additional hardware or software just dual screen playing on seperate wow accounts to do some grinding.

would this software be the one to use to play 2 accounts on the same computer using 2 screens? is there other software that will literaly replicate anything i press on one open window in all other open windows?

[Xzin]

would this software be the one to use to play 2 accounts on the same computer using 2 screens?

Yes.

I don't know of any other but there are probably other ones out there. AHK will not work for 2+ machines but will work for 2 copies of WoW on 1 machine.
