2 accounts and 2 computers

[Jakphrost]

Ok, so I'm really new at this and I was reading these forums and got kinda confused. This is what I want to do...

I have 2 WoW accounts and 2 computers side by side. Both accounts have level 70 mages on them and I wanted to try and level them both at the same time and do PVE once they hit 80.

What would be the best software/hardware for me to use both toons simultaneously?

Its all in the wiki/Faq

[Jakphrost]

Well the wiki faq has options but I was wondering what would be best for the setup that I have.

2 keyclones (keyclone is machine specific with its license) - other than that, read the wiki's and the stickies - they are a wealth of information.

[Jakphrost]

Thanks! I will give Keyclones a shot. I have been reading the wiki's and you are right, there is a LOT of information on there. Thanks again for the recommendation.

I personally use Synergy with broadcasting for my 2 acct, 2 computer setup. Hooray for free!

Multibox or Octopus will also do what you want for free.

I am interested in trying Multibox but when I go to link in one of the FAQ it is broken. Anyone have a good link to get me started on trying out Multibox?

welcome to dual-boxing.com and multiboxing

just wanted to link to this post in the Multibox (software) thread which is what i'd like to present to you as a reasoning behind which boxing solution would be best considering how much time and money you have:
MultiBox (software)

just an fyi: ive never used/tried Octopus nor Multibox as they seem to be unsupported now from what i gather from the threads about these tools.

i have used keyclone together with multiplicity though and these two together, best suited my needs and resources (time-wise) at the time. however, i fiddled with AutoHotKey (AHK) and Synergy at first (being free). the tutorials within here are very helpful but i spent more time setting up AHK up to make it work for my setup versus keyclone.

here's a link to the Octopus thread if you're still interested in giving that a go. the third page contains off-site/alternative links to its final revision (some ppl have raised concerns about the links being suspicious tho, so caveat emptor).

edit: oh i forgot. as a reply to your previous post- sorry, i didnt find any working links to Multibox via searching here and google. skarlot has probably left the building as his site's been offline for quite some time now.
