Is it possible to make all 5 clients on Keyclone maximized to full screen then use hotkey for pip to switch between them?

reducing the maxfpsbk will nto effect how your character performs in the game... just how it renders on screen. and since you won't see the clients, since they will be behind your main window, 5 fps should be more then enough

What about my setup - I run a main window and 4 smaller pips along the top 15% of my screen with maximizer, so although the clone windows aren't "active" in front, they are still visible... will running the lowres macro and setting maxfpsbk to 5 kill my clones ability to maintain follow etc... or help it. Right now I havent messed with the maxfps or maxfpsbk settings and things run pretty well. If im runnin through shatt in primetime and hit a lag spike sometimes I'll lose one of my shared cpu clones (5 chars - 4 cpus = 2 clients share a cpu... which is just a tad slower than the standalone clients). How would you recommend I set this up to maximize fps but still maintain functionality with my clones.

Thanks!

@Lancerx: Sorry, have no answer for you there... I would suggest just biting the bullet and restarting your instances of wow with Keyclone. Are you experiencing a LOT of crashes? I run pretty stable for at least a couple hours every night... and by pretty stable I mean no crashes.

My KeyClones been running for 8 days now... I close wow each day but leave KeyClone up and running while I do other things...

(asonimie casts resurrect on the thread)

if you are seeing lag spikes in such areas, and your alts are already @ 5maxfpsbk, it most likely has to do with the amount of memory you have on your system (assuming your details are too high)

@zanthor
i believe those problems were resolved... about .. 8 months ago

No I haven't set up any keyclone maxfps settings yet, but I would like to as I'm sure it will maximize my setup over just letting wow allocate resources equally among the clients. My question was, given my setup as described above, would setting maxfpsbk to 5 or so help considering my windows aren't buried or minimized, they are just smaller and positioned above my main.

BTW: my system is 2.8quadcore, 8gbram, 512 8800gts playing on a 24"LCD split into 5 regions with maximizer.

your system specs are similar to mine (i'm using 260s)... and i run them at 30/42 just to insure i have plenty of cpu/gpu left over.
setting them to 5/42 would also work and would leave even more cpu/gpu for spike situations

of course, i also have the details set to low

One significant savings in resource usage I haven't seen mentioned:

Turn off sound for all but 1 WoW window. Makes a big difference. Esc>sound and video>etc

And Keyclone's right, get the Low, Medium, High details for graphics settings macros from the wiki, they help a lot too.
