Program to minimize WoW, where is the thread?

[evilperro]

I browsed this site yesterday and found a thread with an AutoIt code that allows you to minimize WoW in a flash (I think? the point with it was that it was minimizing so fast), and not have to ALT-tab which can take ages on some computers.

But now I can't find that thread, I've checked the bot and program section and my previously visited mmowned.com URL:s but it's nowhere to be found !

Could somone please give me the link? :wave:

Hello, if you can't use this method as you described:

and not have to ALT-tab which can take ages on some computers.

Then you should get a better computer, cause when i ALT+Tabbed on quite a bad computer and i think quite old, it went fine, idk if you mean long by the process taking 2-3 seconds to happen or if you mean 10 secs.

If not, run it in windowed mode as m0rbidang3l said.

I know about this, but it decreases fps a little, right? So it would be nice to have that program.

It's my brothers computer, and it's really only the first time per session it takes 1-2 minutes, the following ALT-tabs is under 5 seconds. Guess it's due to XP priority system.

ffs just press Exit >Video Options > Windowed Mode
U can change screens in a sec so ur 500mhz processor isent a problem anymore xD

[m0rbidang3l]

windowed mode doesnt decrease fps. if it does, then ur brother really needs a new comp.

[Tristan]

It should increase FPS.

[MaXe]

It should increase FPS.

True

And you can even decrease the window size afterwards and then it will run super smooth and you can then hack meanwhile or idk maybe watch a movie.
Only problem is reading the text if teh window is too smallz0rz omgz

And yeah, as you said, first time takes 1-2 minutes, the following takes few secs, omgz that's how it has allways been, so if you dont want the 1-2 minute delay,
have ur wow up running 24/7 lawl

:P well then if windowed mode does not decrease fps we will go for that, thanks for the replys

Actually, I belive windowed mode does decrease the FPS, but only if you keep the same res and video settings, the reason being is because Windows has to draw the windows for the rest of the OS instead of just putting WoW at top priority and only drawing that.

But if you put in windowed mode and change WoW's res to account for it, then naturally you'll get higher FPS.
