Multiboxing with Diablo 3

[Gutinat0r]

I've got a question for this. If I have two windowed mode games running, how do I duplicate the keyboard and mouse input on both windows without using ISBoxer (tried HotKeyNet but didn't work).

Any help would be appreciated

Hey guys, I've installed diablo 3 on my vmWARE and it did the updates and stuff but the game won't open. I believe it's because it's trying to go full screen but I can't figure out how to force it into windowed mode.
i tried moving the d3prefs.txt from my desktop to my vmware but that didn't seem to solve my problem. Any suggestions? I tried placing my vm into resolution auto detect and I've also tried forcing various resolution sizes.

Thanks!

i ran 6 bot sessions in 3 vms

i7 2660k
16gb ram
gigabyte radeon hd6870 1gb gddr5

cpu usage >75% (depends on my bot/i guess not d3)
ram ~12gb in use
gpu usage ~50-70%
gpu ram ~500mb in use


on topic:

if we talk about real multiboxing, 1 mouse/keyboard control sends to 2+ sessions... how would you deal the random maps in d3? or would you run all sessions in one game?

Your second choice seems like the one you'd want. You could have them join same game as party. They'd both get their own loot either way.
Alternatively, there are sections of the game that aren't auto generated. you could just have a bot that does that section. Example would be like crypts pot breaking before the nerf or something.

@suthek: what type/version of vmware do you use?
i use vmware workstation 8.0.4 (latest build).
did you checked the 3d acceleration option in your vm settings?
vmtools installed?

I didn't install vmtools. Thanks bud I knew I was missing something obvious!

Working now.

Hesi,
I understant you run 2 bot per vm, wich bot prog do you use ? From what I know, 3 vm is like 3 different computers, it would required 3 different licences (plus multibot license )
whats the trick?,
