AutoHotKey

I'v bumped into a little problem while running AHK.

I run two WoW-windows on on computer, running them on two different monitors at the moment (I'v tried using only one minitor aswell, but I guess this is irrelevant).
I'd like to have both WoW-windows up at the same time since it makes it alot easier to pick up questloot, accept quests etc.

It works fine and runs smoothly when I have the game minimzed.
But when I have both windows up, my secondary character gets logged out after ~20 seconds of playing, anyone else that have experienced this?

Nope. Never had a disconnect when 2 wow clients are in 2 different monitors. I only get D/Cs when one is in the background of the other. Check your memory load. Your comp might be choking. Also uncheck your V-Sync in the Video Settings.

If you havent already, make sure ur video settings in windows is in Horizontal span and not independent monitors. This will help your FPS tremendously.

The horizontal span helped a little regarding fps, got it up to 70. I'v got 1100mb of 49xx memory usage when running two wows, firefox and mirc.

So I don't think it's choking, I have no idea what the problem is tho .

Solved it, thanks for the help .

how/where i check this?

[unit187]

if u r using nvidia graphic card there must be software "NVIDIA nView Desktop Manager". It usually makes icon in tray. Also u always can find it in Control Panel.

Same with ATI... the catalyst control centre....


you must unattach (logically) the 2nd monitor as the option to span is only available when you attach it

I've been trying to bind some keys to the numpad but I'm unable to use the NumpadPlus and NumpadMinus keys, I get an error that says "key does not exist in the current keyboard layout."

Any ideas? thanks in advance.

[unit187]

if I am not mistaken, it spells like NumpadAdd and NumpadSub

yep, that works, didn't notice there's another auto-hotkey thread in the general forums.

So I just started using this program and have been playing with my hunter and paly in AV. Now in order to keep my paladin from going AFK I had set up my hunter's move forward key to be my paladins mini-map zoom out hot key so that he's be doing something every time I moved forward on my hunter. I just have my paladin /follow my hunter rather than bind movement keys together for both.... so I'm kinda stumped as to another solution because I don't like my paladin not having his move forward key bound. Andyone got an idea ? :P
