    Default Completely new to dual-boxing

    Hello, I am completely new to dual-boxing. I have keyclone installed, and I have 2 level 1 shamans. I dual-box on 1 computer. I have read numerous guides on Google and this guide: [Keyclone] step-by-step wow macro setup (level 1.5), but I still don't get why, even with the recommended macros, I can't get my second toon to attack with my main toon. Can somebody please help? Thank you.

    What are the macros you are using?
    Does the other toon do anything at all, such as jump when you press the space bar?
    Did you look at the 2.0 Keyclone guide?

    With Keyclone, I'd go with a Focus based approach.

    You'll want one Focus macro (per toon on the team) on all characters.
    So with two shaman on the team, both of them have two Focus macros.

    Those are:
    /focus [target=ShamanA'sName]
    /focus [target=ShamanB'sName]

    If there were four toons on the team, all four would have a focus macro for each of the Shammies on the team.
    Everyone has the ability to make any of the others (or them self) their focus target.

    You'll want these on the same keybinds.
    So when you push (for example) Shift F1, it makes Toon A everyone's focus.
    When you push (for example) Shift F2, it makes Toon B everyone's focus.

    In Keyclone you have a hotkey to swap regions.
    As in Toon A is in the main/large region initially.
    And Toon B is in the smaller region initially.
    Assign the hotkey that makes Toon A everyone's Focus (in Warcraft) to Keyclone as the hotkey to bring Toon A's region to the larger window.
    Ditto for Toon B's hotkey, to make Toon B's region the main region in Keyclone.

    So when you push Shift F2...
    Keyclone makes Toon B the active toon in the larger region.
    And every character makes Toon B their focus.

    You'll want a follow key.
    Have this on the same keybind for all of your characters.
    /follow [target=focus]

    Your attacks can be straight spells or castsequences.
    /cast [target=focustarget] Lightning Bolt
    /castsequence [target=focustarget] Flame Shock, Lava Burst, Chain Lightning, Frost Shock

    Heals are a little more complicated, but still will work fine.
    If there are [multiple conditions] within [a set of brackets], the first condition that is valid will execute.
    So we stagger our conditions, to aim first at the lead toon's (our focus) target, but only heal if they are friendly.
    The second condition is the target of that target, also only healing if they're friendly.
    /cast [help,target=focustarget][help,target=focustargettarget] Lesser Healing Wave
    EverQuest I: Bard / Enchanter / Druid / Wizard / 2x Magician.
