Dumb question....

[Velassra]

I spent a couple hours plugging away at Keyclone maximizer tonight (been alt+tab for my train so far.) The set-up guide was pretty good of an explanation. My only issue I can see so far, is I only get 1 version of WoW to launch when I launch Keyclone. (Account name set in the launcher etc.)

I think my error is I only have 1 WoW folder on my C drive and I'm guesssing this is why I'm not getting all 5 sections of my maximizer to go along w/ the primary one? (I get the primary one taking 3/4 of the left hand of my screen and the last 1/4 where I designed the other 4 to stack are left empty.)

So, I'm guessing the fix is I have to actually copy all 11.5 GB of wow 4 more times and rename them (totalling about 46 more GB on my HD), then place them in the command line of the command editor and then in the start-up command of the general section?

Let me be of some help here and save you some HD space.

Here is a picture of my keyclone command screen.


And here is a picture of my keyclone maximizer screen.


Commands: Region:
Shammy1 --- 1
Shammy2 --- 2
Shammy3 --- 3
Shammy4 --- 4
Shammy5 --- 5

You must make a seperate Command for EACH instance of WoW you wish to run. And you must have a unique REGION for each command as well.

My 'Connect' string looks like "Shammy1;Shammy2;Shammy3;Shammy4;Shammy5"
I hope this clears anything up. If you need anything else let us know

Thanks for the reply, it seems my set-up is almost identical to your. Where you have in command S1-S5 I named them differnt (named the commands wow1-wow5 and the regions by the toon names.) Ex. The region on the left, identical to what you displayed on maximzer would be named in my command list as wow1, corresponding to region 1, and I did that for the other 4 as well. Reghion 1 is the only one that launches.



I'm pretty sure I understand how to make the regions etc, I just can't get them to lauch except for the main that I put in region 1.

All of the target executables are "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Wow.exe" or whatever directory you have them set as? As long as its pointing at the NON SHORTCUT wow.exe thats fine.

Next would be to make sure your in 'connect' input box your commands are case sensitive. If the commands are named as wow1;wow2;wow3;wow4;wow5 make sure they match. WoW2;WoW3;Wow4;wOw5 will not launch.

You mentioned that your regions are named after your toons. You might want to revert to a 'simplier' naming policy so as to avoid possible misspellings or case sensitive issues, such as the 1-5 method used in my screen shots.

Lets see where those put ya

Ah, thank you, got it going. I did do everything right, spelling, case sensitivity etc..........you actually did give me the answer though....



the spacing on the connect line.....I was putting a space between: wow1; wow2; so only the first one was launching. Killed the space between each and all 5 began to launch.

Now the fun part begins w/ tweaking the spacing of the windows and the framerate. I definately think this is going to need a 2nd monitor to run w/o killing my eyes.

Thank you again, I was pulling my eyes out, thinking 'dammit, I think I'm doing it right, what am I missing!'

Glad my comments and advice were helpful Anything else start up another thread, jump in IRC, or PM myself.

I have a 22 wide screen monitor and it seems to work for me pretty well. I have the same setup as Gurblash, but when i get to outlands i might buy a new monitor for the wife (then i can take her old one lol).

Eh you get used to it. My eyes have adjusted to dealig with alt windows at 255x200. I've gotta pretty good at looting and interacting with NPCs. Practice makes perfect, as done persistance and stubborness
