step-by-step basic keyclone setup

first, welcome to multi-boxing... let's see if i can get you to the basics.

for this message, i will assume you have 2 mages, level 1, with nothing in slots 6 and 7 in your action bar. also, i assume you have fireball in slot 2 and frost shield in 3. also, please make sure you are running your clients in windowed mode (in-game, esc, video/windowed-mode) and in 800x600 mode (this is just to start.. play with resolution later). once set... exit, restart and log in both accounts.

you should also not have keyclone running at this time.
i also assume you have nothing else running. no broswer (except this window) and no windows explorer.

you should have 2 wows slightly overlapped with both mages standing next to eachother.

i will assume your main mage is going to be called 'joe' and your clone is 'sam'

click on sam's window.
you need to make 2 macros (esc/macro)
macro 1:
click new
select icon
type follow as the description
click ok
edit the macro body and type this:
/follow joe

click 'new' to create another macro
select a different icon
type assist as the description
click ok
edit the macro body and type this:
/assist joe

click-drag the icon for follow into slot 6 on your action bar
click-drag the icon for assist into slot 7 on your action bar

click ok to save your macro and return to game

test the follow by hitting 6.. sam should turn to follow joe.
on joe's screen... select a target
on sam's screen, test the assist macro by hitting 7... did sam get the same target as joe?

join sam into joes group.
set loot as free-for-all

assuming you're good to this point... it's time to connect up your clones.

run keyclone.
if you have the default settings in place, it should automatically add both wows to it's list. it would say 'world of war..' or something like that.

click on joe.
hit spacebar
both sam and joe should jump (there is something called animation latency you will see.. but both characters are actually jumping at the same time)

hit 3 and both mages should put on their shields

you now have keys passing between 2 clones.

on joe... click on a target
hit 7... look at sam's target.. should be the same
hit 2 and both should cast fireball on the target
repeat 2 as necessary until target dead

hit 6 to have sam follow joe
click-hold left+right mouse to drive to the body and loot

congrats.. you are multi-boxing

there is more beyond this point... but this is the ground floor. if you didn't get this working, drop me a PM and i'll see what i can do for you.

ok so i got it to work kinda. when my main walk forward my clone goes backwards and when i turn left it goes right how do i fix that?

[AcidX]

I have the same problem, it follows the main a little bit then when u kill mob or two it just goes his own way, if i go left he will probally go right, won't follow me anymore.Anyone know how to fix that? :thumbdown:

[Binaryzero]

hit the follow button again or look into the addons listed in the Wiki to help with that.

All of your clones should have A,S,D,Q,W and E aka your movement keys unmapped. When your main runs you do NOT want your clone getting keystrokes because that will break your follow.

All of your clones should have A,S,D,Q,W and E aka your movement keys unmapped. When your main runs you do NOT want your clone getting keystrokes because that will break your follow.

I started doing this but the better method would be to leave asdqwe mapped on each of your clones, and set them to do-not-pass in keyclone. That way if, say, your main dies, you can go to an alt and still move him around with wasdqe without breaking the other 3 remaining characters. I do this along with a focus macro so if my main dies I can quickly switch to a new window, use a macro to change the focus to the new char, and wasdqe all still work (only for the current window).

I still leave up/down/left/right set only for the 4 clones as that way I can position them/turn them without affecting my main, if needed.

Thank you Vyndree, This is some of what I was looking for. Having trouble with keyclone passing info and getting macros set up. Not much of a scripting or any kind of "programming" person. Haven't found any in-game boxers to ask for help on Burning Blade. (They don't like to answer whispers) :cursing:

I will scratch everything I set up and try this out to see if I can get my two lvl 1 hunters on the right track.

Howdy Gunner,

if you are a bit confused how to get it working, drop me a note and i'll see what i can do for you.

talk to you soon,

Step-by-step Basic Keyclone Setup

Firstly, welcome to the world of Multi-Boxing... Let's see if I can get you to the basics.

For the purposes of this example I will assume:
a) You have two mages, level 1 with nothing in slots 6 and 7 of your action bar
b) You have fireball in slot 2 and frost shield in slot 3

*Please make sure you are running your clients in windowed mode (In-game > esc > video/windowed-mode and that you are running at 800x600 resolution (this is just to start with, you can change the resolution later. Once this is set exit restart and log into both accounts.

**Please ensure keyclone is not running at this time (It may also pay to make sure nothing else is running ie: Browser (excluding this window) windows explorer etc)

You should have two WoWs slightly overlapped with both mages standing next to each other.

I will assume your main mage is going to be called 'Joe' and your clone is 'Sam'

Click on Sam's window. You will need to make two macros (type /macro then hit enter)

Macro 1:
Click new
Select an icon
Type 'Follow' as the description
Click ok
Edit the macro body and type this:
/follow Joe

Click 'new' to create another macro
Select a different icon
Type assist as the description
Click ok
Edit the macro body and type this:
/assist Joe

Click-drag the icon for follow into slot 6 on your action bar
Click-drag the icon for assist into slot 7 on your action bar

Click ok to save your macro and return to game

Test the follow by hitting 6.. Sam should turn to follow Joe.
On Joe's screen... select a target
On Sam's screen, test the assist macro by hitting 7... did Sam get the same target as Joe?

Join Sam into Joe's group.
Set loot as free-for-all

Assuming you're good to this point... it's time to connect up your clones.

Run keyclone.
If you have the default settings in place, it should automatically add both wows to it's list. it would say 'world of war..' or something like that.

Click on Joe and hit spacebar. Both Sam and Joe should jump (there is something called animation latency you will see.. but both characters are actually jumping at the same time)

Hit 3 and both mages should put on their shields

You now have keys passing between 2 clones.

On Joe click on a target then hit 7. If you look at Sam's target it should be the same. If you hit 2 both should cast fireball at the target. Repeat 2 as necessary until the target is ANNIHILATED.

Hi 6 to have Sam follow Joe. Click-hold left+right mouse to drive to the body and loot.

Congratulations you are now multiboxing. Ensure you read the wiki as well as stikys for more advanced information about multi-boxing.


Good luck.
