[Dagisbarn]

In this guide i will show how to setup HotkeyNet so that you can start multiboxing. With this program you can controll WoW over the network and it also work if you running 2 or more wow clients on one computer.

And the best thing, it's FREE.


First of all you need to download HotkeyNet here:
http://www.hotkeynet.com/down/hotkeynet_125.zip

Now we gonna set up HotkeyNet for local and network so lets assume we running 2 wow clients on the local computer and 1 wow client on the computer in the network.

Dont forgtet to install HotkeyNet on that computer in the network also.

We gonna use that computer that is running 2 wow clients as "server".


Here is the connection settings for HotkeyNet on the "server".


Now we gonna setup the other computer with HotkeyNet if you are using more computers in the network you should use this setup on all of the except for the server ofc.



Now we need to make a Hotkey file.
Open up notepad.

And put this in to your file.

<Hotkey Ctrl R>
<SendPC local>
<RenameWin "World of Warcraft" wow1>
<RenameWin "World of Warcraft" wow2>
<SendPC 192.168.0.103>
<RenameWin "World of Warcraft" wow1>

<Label local1 Local SendWinM wow1>
<Label local2 Local SendWinM wow2>
<Label network1 192.168.0.103 SendWinM wow1>

<BroadcastKey 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, space, tab, t, F1, F2, F3, F4, F5, Ctrl F1> </ Here you put what keys you press that will be sent to the clients>
<SendLabel local1, local2, network1>

<HoldDownKey up, down, left, right>
<SendLabel local2, network1>

And save it as keys.txt.

Now on your "server" you will have to load this in the main window where it says "Load hotkeys".

And remember for each computer you using you will need HotkeyNet to be running.

Start up all wow clients press CTRL + R and you will be fit for fight.

In my opinion, hotkey lacks functionality. I think it's more realistic to use octopus as your free solution especially since you don't go into a great amount of depth on how to use this.
