creating keyclone step-by-step beginners guide

[keyclone]

does this help?

or this

if you think of keymaps as translators changing a key into a 'hotstring' ... then the other keymaps would translate back from the hotstring back into a key

the default action is to ignore the hotstring. any key that is in the keymap of the active window will not be sent to the other clones... only the hotstring gets sent

the purpose would be to allow you to generically map to different keys depending on the window (or function of the character). this should give you plenty of key combinations and potentially finer control over your clones (ie: one key to order all types of casters to do a ranged attack)

if you'd like to take a crack at writting up a guide, i'd gladly put it in the FAQ/hotstring area (with proper credit, of course)

Hi keyclone,

Firstly, a quick thanks. Just got the app and it makes life a lot easier.

The tutorial is good as a basic "get it up and running" guide.

[keyclone]

thanks Druid.

i definitely have to revisit the tutorial... and add more advanced stuff as well as update it for the new features (the tutorial shows v1.6b...)

if you have any suggestions or requests, just let me know

[Druid]

Apart from having a brain ache learning macro's ...

All I can think of would be to divide it up into chapters:

Chap 1 Download & Install
Chap 2 Setup (1, PC, Multi-PC, etc)
Chap 3 Other stuff
Chap 4 Even more advanced stuff
Chap 5 Etc

It would make things easy for beginners and advance as they would go straight to the section that interested them.

Plus you can concentrate on a particular area without having to try to remember everything :P

Just some quick ideas :shock:

I've tried making a tutorial for it at
http://home.comcast.net/~iamnotaloser16/tutorial.html

Since keyclone already has enough to do (korean and japanese language support :shock.

I haven't added the Keymap Editor, Mouse-Map, Command Editor, or Proxy sections. If someone could explain those to me please PM me so I could add them (with credits to you of course).

Nice work penguini !

Thats exactly what I meant in my previous post

Ty

I still need to figure out what all the other sections do that I didn't know about.

[keyclone]

very nice penguini... i think you have the right direction.

once you get it completed, including appropriate crediting of course, i'll include it on the main site if you'd like.

fyi... new version coming out tonight. a bunch of updates and new components.

doing language support with a changing feature set bites... you end up re-translating everything... so i've tried to push through all major requested changes before proceeding on language updates. (if you have ideas... speak now...)

Yea that would rock.

fyi... new version coming out tonight. a bunch of updates and new components.

Oooo new stuff to play with.

Also, how's this: http://home.comcast.net/~iamnotalose...e/tutorial.htm

[keyclone]

looks good... but it needs more pictures. pictures along with text helps users with the context. highlighting the appropriate parts of the image would help even more... but i didn't go that far

also needs more sections. at least 1 per setup area. maybe even a detail wow setup (ie: formations, macros, etc)

looking good... keep it up
