    Default Dualboxing 3acc same pc. I need help.

    Hello ppl here on Dual Boxing.com :wink:

    Well, this is my first post here and I hope I have found the right section for my question about this. This with dual boxing is very tempting for me, and I will give it a try.

    I'm not exactly sure about I should try out 2acc boxin or go straight to 3acc on the same pc..

    I already have 2 acounts ready for use, but I feel I get more out of it by taking 3 acount's..

    But I'm afraid I can't post any spec of my PC atm cause i'm at my ladys house right now, but I have tryed to play on 2 acounts on my pc at home and that is not really a big problem. So I think I could do with 3 acount to.

    Well, this was just for the information to you guys, what I really needs is some support to really get this started..

    I have already been reading some post of how to start out, but Im not sure if I found the right thing or maybee it was to hard for me to understand. What I will ask for is if someone could make a easy setup guide for me, what I need of software, do I need another monitor, or new hardware to get 2 monitors upp..
    What I think is maybee to start with 2 warlocks and 1 priest or maybee 2 mages and 1 priest.

    I will be very glad for all usefull answer. As said before i have never been into this, I have only been watching some movies that I really have feld in love to, and I hope you guys here can make this "dream" come true..

    Well, I need a step by step guide for everything I need, I really wish to do this on one computer and 1 monitor..

    Is this possible? Do you recomend 2 acounts on one monitor or can it go with 3 accounts one 1 monitor?

    A: Well that would depend on how many accounts. Most computers can handle 2 accounts with sound turned off and GFX turned down. If you are like me and want to run 5 accounts at once below is basic hardware you will need.

    At least a core2 duo CPU
    at least 2.5-3 gigs of ram
    at least a 256MB gfx card made in the last year. I have a radeon x800xt and it can do 5 at about 10 FPS 3 accounts at 30FPS

    Q: What software should I use on my 5box setup on 1 computer or multiple computers?
    A: I my self started out the hard way. Autohotkey this software allowed me to write a script that would send keystrokes to out of focus windows in order to control my characters. A member here named Keyclone [url
    http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums2/viewtopic.php?t=883[/url], made life much easier for me with this program. Sure its 10$ but man did it save me a lot of time when I needed to edit my script.

    Should you wish to use more than 1 computer to control all 5 accounts there are multiple ways to do so. You could do it the xzin way and use 5 computers and KVM switches and what not to control 5 computers off 1 keyboard. More info can be found here http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums2/viewtopic.php?t=18 for hardware you might need. Pictures and setups can be found on this post here by xzin http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums2/viewtopic.php?t=410 thanks :}
    Thanks=)

    But, well.. I think im more in need of what software I need to use and how to set them upp, at 2acc or 3acc etc.. I think that sticky lacks a bit of information.. btw I have a 19" monitor.

    How can my "clones" fitt nice into my screen and take away the actionbar on topp of the program when (example) the its maximized?

    If I have understand right that clones are the selected example 2 other secondary acouns on my screen and the 3th is the main character window, if you understand?

    Get key-broadcasting software (KeyClone, AutoHotKey) to send keypresses to every instance of WoW. (insert links to KC/AHK topics here)
    4. Setup macros to make things easier such as /follow and /assist etc.

    well.. if you are truly interested in mastering multi-boxing... that will require a lot of reading.

    my suggestion would be as follows:

    go to the beginner forum. read the first 20 posts on the first 20 threads.

    then go to hardware and do the same.

    then software

    and finally general.

    by the time you are done, you will be up to speed on the current issues around multi-boxing.

    if you have a tough time with english... try this:

    go to this link: http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/tr

    under translate a webpage, paste this: http://dual-boxing.com

    now you should be able to browse the forums in your own language...

    but be warned... babel fish isn't the best

    thanks Keyclone, I will do what you said, english reading is very good, but other than that I'll follow your tip, and I will come back to my post later on.

    If you look at the sticky on "How to Box on One Computer" you'll find a section in that guide about 3 Boxing.

    It will give you a step to step along with the whole guide on how to set up for your 3 boxing on one monitor.
