My Problem

[Tiddily]

hi

i plan on starting to Multibox i am going to start with a small set-up which will just be two accounts on one computer. i already have an account that i have been playing for 3 years. i have looked around the forum and found a few usful tips but i would like to have some advice for my specific situation.

1. currently i can only use one computer with average specs and that i know can run two account together without any problems.

2. i would like to know some simple easyish to use software and so i can control both of them at once without major hassle. i think im going to get a huntet to 19 and duelbox my twink hunter with it until i get used to multiboxing and the i will level another character.

3. information about software, macros etc please.

i would appreciate it very much for anyones help!

• OK! welcome to multi-boxing.. I would love to see u expand to more characters!..... First of all your going to need a couple of things.. This is going to be a simple guide for you to follow (hopefully).. Its what i use in the 1700 brackets of 5v5 atm....

What you will need-

• keyclone
• addons- automaton, jamba, pitbull
• macro's (which are simple! once u learn how to do them)

1. Download automaton, jamba, and pitbull (or a UI that allows u to bind any keys to any spells in wow)..
2. Keyclone- keyclone is a program used (19.99$) that can be downloaded off this site. What keyclone does is, it links whatever key presses you do on wow1 and wow2 (different wow's open on ur computer)... There are several things you need to do to become advanced at keyclone. But most of the things come already started for you. Once you install keyclone and your set, and have 2 accounts open ur first wow. Go into your game options and select windowed mode. Move ur size of ur new wow window to fit half the screen or however u want to set it up. Then, open a second wow, make another character and split the screen again to have it set as you want it...
3. u have ur characters made-- dont get carried away.. keep ur characters at the starting spot because all the keys are bound, and this gets realllllly messy...
4. is it working?- before you get moving around.. press spacebar while on "wow1", you should see both "wow1", and "wow2" jump at the same time.. this means that keyclone is working and ur set and ready for the more complicated stuff.. if not working.. going back and makesure keyclone is open, and keyclone has noticed you have opened wow.
5. Do-Not-pass- in keyclone, there is a tab called, "do not pass" go into this window. click the area that says "<click here and hit a key>".. dont hit a key please... (these are the keys that will not be transfered from "wow1" to "wow2".. ) you will want to have keys like, C, H, L, M, O, P, Enter, /,... ect.. while your running around and trying to open different windows, its very difficult to have all of the windows opening and closing.. whenever u see a problem with things opening.. just go to hear and put them in thedo-not-pass...
6. keybinds-- in wow settings- while on "wow2" go into ur settings and to keybinds.. this is another way that u can use make it so the alt does not do what the main is doing.. This is where ur going to go to "movement keys" and unbind the keys w,a,s,d,.. or up, down, left, right keys.. whichever u use to move.. This is so that you can have the main move and not the alt. (if u want to get fansy, you can have the movement keys for the main w,a,s,d.. and for when u just want the alt to move (for getting out of aoe or something).. u can use the arrow keys..)... Some more items that u might want to unbind are "enter" and "/" because u dont want them all talking at once!.
7. Macros--the most important part!!!-

• follow- when u just start a character say the first "free" button is "3" because u have like 2 spells at the start.. On "wow1" you will leave this space blank forever.. on "wow2" you will make a macro.. and place it on the button 3.. this is what the macro should look like.. ..... /follow wow1 (wow1= the name of ur main character name.,.. which i do not know).. place this on the button 3 on the alt, and leave it blank on the others..
• Shoot- now that u are running around and jumping at the same time and ur figuring it out, now its time to kill a mob. (dont do quests yet please).. (pretend ur a mage...) the only spell u have at the begging is fireball.. on ur main, you will leave button "2" as fireball, and then on the alt, you will create a macro place the macro on button 2.. replacing the normal spell please!!!- the macro should have the same picture to make it easier.. you will need a macro that looks like this /assist wow1 (now press enter to go down a line)... /cast fireball

• again-- do this step again for all spells that you get.. but do not use them for self cast things like frost shield.. because u want to give that to urself..

8. addons- and finally, you will need to setup macros. which are self explanatory..
Jamba= a addon that links that accounts so that they auto accept groups, trades, quests, focus, follow (pulsates every 1 sec.. different settings can make variables).. and all that (go into the main settings.. add all the alts names that will be included in this addon on "wow1" and the mains name on "wow2"'s addon..
Automaton= skips all the unnessisary things in quests, group invites, summons, deaths, trades, says ding! which is funn in guild!, and more auto thinggs like going into BG. and passing on
Pitbull- a new UI that allows u to put spells anywhere on the screen and bind them to keys.. So for example, if u want to bind 1, 2, 3, 4, to spells,, and cntl 1, cntrl 2, cntrl 3.. to buffs you can do that..!!

Hope this helps.. any questions please just ask!..
