I purchased keyclone the other day and it works great on a 1 machine setup. Can I get it to work on a 2- machine setup? I have a windows box and linux ubuntu box setup, running right next to each other, each with its own monitor. I have WoW setup on each machine and want to be able to dual-box the 2 accounts together. Is this possible?

[keyclone]

yes, as long as you are running keyclone under the windows emulator on linux. then just type in the iport of the windows keyclone.. hit connect.. and you should see the connection line on both keyclones (make sure the 2 machines can send data between themselves... watch for firewalls and subnet routing issues)

what i dont understand with keyclone reading the posts here is when you press the direction keys (W,S,A and D) keyclone should do the same on the second wow account, but if i follow, using these key, break the follow, so i need to bypass these in keyclone. so for this to work you have to be in group, set some macro to follow up or assist and by-pass these in keyclone, if you play 2 toons not of the same class and want only use the second as a healer and dps, then you dont need to bypass, you can run around using AWSD, and just setup some common button to attack and heal the main..

did i explain tis correctly or i am mistaken

yes, /follow will break on your alts if you pass the movement keys ( WASD, arrows, or auto-run ) to your alts.

to resolve this, the most common thing to do would be to add your movement keys to the keyclone do-not-pass list (keyclone/setup/do-not-pass). this will block the keys from going to your alts and /follow will continue working.

don't forget to use the override hotkey (default is PAUSE) while chatting. this stops keyclone from passing the keys... allowing you to chat without an echo. once you are done, just hit the key again.

i hope that helps,

Rob

In order to get keyclone to work on 2 machines, do I need to purchase it twice? One for each machine?

[keyclone]

yes, the one-time fee is on a per machine basis

[xshadowdragon]

Is it possible to just clone a few keys? All I need is /follow /stopfollow (or whatever that would be) and /cast Arcane Explosion. I need to be able to NOT move same even if Joe is moving.

Hi

Since Wow patch 3.02 came through I have had problems with lag between the main and the following alts. This means the folow is breaking every 5 - 10 seconds, and the alt is often doing the key action noticeably later than the main. Is this a coincidence, or is there something I need to do to get better integration. It was working beautifully prior to patch 3.02 (great product!!)
