keyclone not working??

[submdi]

Firstly: Hi, just been lurking until now

I have been using Keyclone for a few weeks now, and loving it, but it seems to be not working all of a sudden.

I'm using 2 PC's for 2 toons. I noticed my slave toon wasn't helping in combat, then realised none of the key presses were transmitting to second PC. This has happened before, so I just closed both clients and keyclones, then restarted.

Then I noticed MOTD for new version. I loaded anyway, and still slave wasn't responding. So I closed, then downloaded new version.

Updated, and seemed like all settings have been retained, started both up again, but still no transmitting from either client to the other???

What has happened??

This is very frustrating, as I'm only a short time from level 40 on both toons.

May I suggest deleting your Keyclone.ini file, start fresh.

Sometimes starting over works. You never know. So I suggest back it up, delete it, try it again.

I'm afraid that didn't help.

I thought it had worked at one stage, when I was typing my password, it was transmitting to the slave, but after that it stopped.

This is driving me crazy!!!!

Why would it just stop working?

Edit: and what are the 2 new buttons (dnp & rr) ?

[submdi]

okay then.............

I don't understand why or what, but it's working again now...??

Please disregard this thread.

Great program!! I am enjoying it :thumbsup:

[keyclone]

the dnp and rr buttons are overrides for do-not-pass and round-robin. by pushing them, your do-not-pass and/or your round-robin list is suspended.

useful for when you are entering a password, for example

you can find a hotkey for each on the override settings panel (keyclone/setup/override settings)

Alright, it's doing it again!!

No settings changed at all.

I don't know why, but keys stopped going to both clients again.

I shutdown and restarted both PC's but still not broadcasting to both. However, mut works accross both??

Anyone else having this happen?

[keyclone]

i have noticed the override overlay has put a strain on the cpu... which, in turn, could be starving the keyclone for cpu time.. at which point it would drop connection.

try UNCHECK keyclone/setup/override settings/overlay reminder

i am currently working on a replacement for the overlay that will have minimal cpu/gpu impact.
look for an update tonight

[submdi]

I will try what you suggest.

But this also happened before the last update as well?

Still not working, and I was thinking anyway, it wouldn't work, as restarting both PC's had no effect.

What is strange is the client only shows the IP of the other PC. It doesn't show World of Warcraft for the other PC



This must be happening to someone else. I changed no settings. It was working fine, then it just stopped. Please help?

This has been happening to me too.

The other night I was having issues where they KC's on both computers would not communicate to the other computer but worked fine on multiple wows on the same computer. On my main computer no sound would happen when I press Pause (to mute KC) while on the other computer sound was just fine when I pressed Pause on that computer.

The next morning I shutdown keyclone and cut & paste my keyclone.ini file out of the folder it was in so I could save it. Now KC was making sound on my main when I pressed Pause. Still would not make a connection with my second pc. Stopped KC, cut & pasted the keyclone.ini file on the second pc to save it as well and started KC again. Both KC's worked fine with each other.

Since then though I've been having issues where it seems to stop communicating with each other, usually I notice it when pausing because then the MUTE does not show up on second computer. To fix it I only have to shut down KC on the second computer then bring up task manager and kill the orphaned keyclone left behind. It also leaves a system tray icon that cannot be interacted with. After killing keyclone from Task Manager I am able to start up keyclone on the second computer and re-connect from my main computer and it works again for a while.

I'm running 2 smaller wows on the second computer and it's a sad 3400 Sempron single core with only 1GB of memory. It has a halfway decent AGP card though.
