how do i get them all to go in same direction

I found out you can't use a script in combat to switch key bindings. dammit!



Going to play around with x-keys and see if I can figure a way to do it. If anyone knows a way to do this please let me know!

Macro? Isn't that against the rules?

Of course not, silly! Macroing can be done by anyone, even non-multiboxers, and is built within the WoW interface. You can access your macros by typing "/macro".

What can a macro do that a normal button pusher can't?

Absolutely nothing. However, macros are useful for binding multiple actions into a fluid keypress, such as trinket+AP+PoM+Pyro (otherwise known as the "I Win" button)

What do multiboxers use macros for?

Multiboxers will use macros for almost EVERYTHING. For example, each spell cast the a multiboxer makes will have to be targeted. A very simple macro would have to be implemented for each DPS spell a multiboxer wanted to use.

For example:
/assist Vyndree
/cast Lightning Bolt

This also needs to be done for healing. As you can probably tell, we very quickly run out of buttons and usually fill up every single macro spot with different spells.

Multiboxers also use macros for movement. Unfortunately, you cannot put movement into a macro like you can use your "wasd" or arrow keys. Therefore, multiboxers use the in-game /follow system and assign that to a macro while unbinding their "wasd" keys in the menu->keybindings window.

See also the following questions in my guide:

• How do I move my characters around?
• What is a macro, and how can I use it to perform actions?

The manifesto has a complete detailing of how to handle failover in the manner you're asking about.

As far as rebinding keys, you wouldn't have to do it with keyclone - whatever window you're focusing has full key input, then the do not pass list is applied to the remainder of the clients.

I'll take another look at the manifesto and test some thing out. I guess I'm just having a hard time wrapping my brain around it. Thanks!

The DNP list simply will not pass that key between windows with Keyclone. So when you mouse over to the next window or use PIP, just go on about your life. You may need to use a new focus/follow macro or use one that falls though selection based upon conditions like nodead.

This is what is missing from the manifesto!!! For some reason it just didn't click! I just told Octopus not to pass my forward/back/strafl/strafr keys and tried this again and it works perfectly. This should be added to the manifesto, me thinks.
