[Multibox] Dual Boxing

[Multiboxing] Dual Boxing by Come Undone



Hello, I recently started multiboxing, just to test it out and make up my mind about it. So far so good!

I didn't really know where to start out, what program I should use and which macros etc... That's why I wanted to share it from my point of view!

You may not want to spend cash just to test it. So I recommend that you start two trial accounts and try what I tried to see if it's worth getting serious!

Requirements:
Two active WoW-accounts
One decent computer
One multiboxing program

You may want to go here and make two trial accounts

For US:

For EU:

The program I'm using to multibox is called HotKeyNet and can be downloaded from here:
http://hotkeynet.com/down/hotkeynet_171.zip

The "script" required to multibox is something I've edited myself to make things easy for me. Download here: Free file hosting by Savefile.com

Some info about the script is that it doesn't move your 2nd character you're boxing with the regular WASD keys. It has a bit of problems if you try to send the same movement keys to both windows due to delays etc etc. To make it work I have a macro with a few actions.

Macro bound to Key 1 on character 2's Hotbar:

/follow CharName1
/assist CharName1
/startattack

My second character is a skinner, so for that I have a macro aswell.

/follow CharName1
/assist CharName1
/cast Skinning

This script in HotKeyNet relays on that you have scroll lock on to perform!
So after you have loaded the script in the program, you may want to edit a line. The line which launch and rename wow for you!

//-----------------------------------------------------------
// SUBROUTINE TO LAUNCH AND RENAME A COPY OF WOW.
//-----------------------------------------------------------
<Command LaunchAndRename>
   <SendPC local>
      <Run "C:\Program\World of Warcraft\WoW.exe">
        <RenameTargetWin %2%>

Replace the

<Run "C:\Program\World of Warcraft\WoW.exe">

with the location of your WoW.exe
For example it could be "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WoW.exe".

To launch the two instances of WoW from the script...
1. you put Scroll Lock ON.
2. you press (Ctrl + Plus)

Now it should be running. Then it's just to login on your accounts and start playing! I recommend choosing the same class if it's your first time for both your characters.

Hope this helps you or give you a little taste for multiboxing!

How Safe is this? (Is It detected)

I don't see any reason to worry about detection, aren't you just using a program to send keystrokes which blizzard doesn't ban for?

multiboxing is completley legit if it wouldnt be who wouldnt notice 2 ppl following each other and casting spells at the exact sam time

Well the problem that i find annoying whit multiboxing or whit HotKeyNet is that i have to manualy open the quest window for the NPC and i have to manualy LOOT the mob whit the "second slave". Any tips?

[hilion]

Use Innerspace + its Multiboxing Tools. (Mouse Clones)
Or use other PC's like i do. :-)

dont worry about getting banned for multiboxing, blizz have stated that its perfectly fine to do so.

[kacetado]

multiboxing isnt ilegal, you can do it without problem, and for the guy that made this thread i think octupus is better for multiboxing but i never tryed HKN

good post

[mouserino]

good to know...good to know

multibox is legit.
you actually sit there and controlling it, unless you afk and it does the work for you, then it's not legit, cuz that make you a boter :P

[eekje877]

i dont know if its legal but it cannot be detected except if you do something ingame that can get the GM's attention and trace your both accounts connected trough 1 IP.
Farming/Battlegrounds is legal to multibox. You pay 2x accounts so Blizz is cool with it.

Multiboxing arena is not legal i think, because its exploiting the arenasystem.

anyways, +1 for you =)
