DAoC dual-boxing

I'm sorry, I don't understand this. Does "server/client" refer to Synergy or HotkeyNet? With HotkeyNet, every machine can do the same things regardless of whether they are clients or servers."

I configured the HKN to be the server, and my other 2 machines to be clients to test them last nite. I had to load my hotkeys into my main machines (the HKN server) and send out the commands with their ip addresses, whereas I was hoping to keep them separate on their own machines

Is this something you're planning to do with Synergy, or are you saying you'd like to see it added to HotkeyNet? As far as HotkeyNet goes, I don't have any immediate plans to add this sort of thing.

Synergy is just what I use to link the screens so I don't have to physically use my other keyboards. Otherwise I was just hoping to use AutoHotKey to have them repeat an action.

This may work with build 55. (If it does, I'll be amazed that you can stack three programs like this on top of each other and get something useful out of them. )

That'd be cool ^^ I'll check it out right now!

I started at 5, it worked fine, went to 6, it works well, Ill continue upwards. Seems 5 - 6 is the sweet spot, 7 breaks rarely, but frequently enough to be an annoyance.

Ryjara Autohotkey and Hotkeynet are 2 different programs, if that was a typo just ignore me =)

Okay, thanks a million for testing this. I think this is way too sensitive to tiny changes to be practical for the average user. I guess I'll implement the keystroke buffer tomorrow.

Better not break it! Id hate to have to kill you, specially after you have been so useful. Now... just to find the 90 bucks to activate these accounts...

Thanks again fred for a good functional program, First one I have found yet that lets me kick ass on daoc.

You been such a terrific tester I'll make a special effort not to break it. But no promises !!!

Thanks for the compliments, much appreciated.

^^ hehe I was trying to use them 2 programs together since HKN doesn't repeat actions, I just needed something that would, which is where AHK comes in.

So far with HKN, Machine #2 picks up that I'm pressing keys... I was really excited but then I found it still doesn't do the hotkey action. But it senses that I'm pressing keys (in the show keystrokes feature in HKN) when I mouse over from the main machine with Synergy. It's getting close!

And I tried using AHK to repeat a HKN hotkey, and no dice.

I look funny dancing in-game though ^^

Can you post the hotkey definition here? The one that isn't getting executed on PC 2?

[Ryjara]

<Hotkey 6>
<SendPC Local>
6
<SetFocusDelay 0 50>
<SendWinBackgroundDAOC daoc1> 
6
<SendWinBackgroundDAOC daoc2> 
6

It works when I press Machine#2's keyboard. Just not when I mouse over from the main.

When you try to trigger that definition from PC 1's keyboard, what exactly do you see in HKN's window?
