Looking for Assistance

[NSC99]

Hi. I'm, abit new to all this, sorta. Back in the days of EQ1, my stepbro and I, had 6 accounts, and used to use EQWindows, to box 3 accounts each. Made for PL'ing our lower levels, really easy. Anyways, EQ1 is long in the past. Lately, I've been poking around with City of Heroes, and although, CoH has no issues with running 2 clients and alt+tabbing between them, it becomes a pain in the butt, after awhile. Which is what led me to look for some program, which could make that, just a touch, easier and in such, led me here.

So, I DL'd the program, used the beginners guide to setup a basic script, just to test the program and see if it would work. No luck. So, I poked around for abit more, before coming back here and doing a search and finding that the program has issues with CoH.

My question, is there a workaround, for this program and CoH, or, can anyone point me towards a freeware program, of similiar nature, that does work with CoH.

Thank you, in advance. Have M-Boxing.

What Program?

[NSC99]

:shock: Oh! Guess that would help. AutoHotKey.

Could you please post the script you tried with COH?

[NSC99]

WinGet, cohid, List, City of Heroes

~1::
KeyWait, 1, D
#IfWinActive, city of heroes
{
ControlSend,, 1, ahk_id %cohid1%
ControlSend,, 1, ahk_id %cohid2%
}
Return

Is that the title of the Window?

Make sure the case is correct, erm, try and make sure the Window title is correct.

It *might* be that City of Heroes will only accept keystrokes when the Window is Active, in which case you'd have to find a way of Locking COH to the foreground for each window. Only program that I can think of off-hand which does this is Innerspace. Although its not freeware, it carries a monthly subscription.

You could also try KeyClone, but you'd need to find a seperate way of locking COH to the Foreground.

Good Luck :-)

I'm rather new to all this. But, how do I check the Title to figure out if it's correct, or not?

Err.
Open Task Manager? Applications tab - observe the "task" name.
