Introduce

An easy to use and powerful tool makes WOW multi-boxing players more enjoyable. Because Blizzard has banned the FollowUnit API , so many addons which support "auto follow" function can't work as design,such as autofollow, FollowMePls. This tool not only provides the basic key multicasting function, but also repaired the broken "autofollow" function. Of course, to achieve the goal depends on autofollow addon, in addition we need to set up two simple macros and bind them on two keys.

Installation

  • Download the released version: Release1.0.0

  • Decompress the zip file to any folder, and the folder content structure is as follows: image1

AutoFollow addon installation

  • WOW classic put AutoFollow to the folder "World of Warcraft/_classic_/Interface/AddOns"
  • WOW retail put AutoFollow to the folder "World of Warcraft/_retail_/Interface/AddOns"
  • classic version
  • retail version

start

  • for classic wow,please run wowclassic.bat
  • for retail wow, please run wow.bat

Parameters

  • Please input you key for moving forward, the default value is W: W
  • Please input your key to turn left, the default value is A: A
  • Please input your key to turn right, the default value is D: D
  • Please input your key for following, the default value is T: T
  • Please input your key for stopping following, the default value is G: G
  • Program startup input is shown as Figure image

Preliminary functional verification

After the program starts normally, the player can operate with the leader role wow window and press the Space bar. If all the wow characters jump at the same time, it means that the key synchronization function has been enabled normally.

Core macro definitions and key bingding

There are only two core macros, because the player mainly controls the leader character, so all the following characters must make two macros, namely "Follow macro" and "stop following macro".

  • Follow Macro (bind to Key 'T)
/f leader's id
  • Stop Following Macro (bind to key 'G')
/af stop
/f player

you can see the upper macro contains af command which comes from AutoFollow addon, so AutoFollow addon is mandatory.

Important movement control key

  • 'DEL': turn on/off key synchronization by pressing DEL. It is a good idea to turn off key synchronization when you are not playing games
  • 'T' : press this key to let all follower characters to follow the leader character
  • 'G' : press this key let all all follower characters to stay where they are
  • 'W' : player press this key to let the leader character to move forward, at the same time, this tool will send 'T' key press event to all followers automatically, then followers will follow the leader again

Team movement

  • When the player presses the T button, all followers will follow the leader character. The player presses the G button, and all followers stay where they are
  • some classes such as mage or warlock, when they cast channel spells, then their following state will be lost, but this tool has enabled the followers to automatically follow the leader again in most cases. If the follower fails to follow the leader role in time under unexpected circumstances, you can press T to let the followers follow the leader again.

Additional config for melee follower

  • ESC- Interface - Games - Mouse - Click Move (checked), click Move View Mode - always adjust the view
  • ESC- Key Settings - Select Target - Interact with target - E (strongly recommend to set the key to E, because E key is very handy!)
  • If the melee follower is far away from the monster which leader is attacking, the player should presses the E key, then the melee follower will actively adjust its perspective and move close and attack the monster

Some group play tactics

  • each group play tactics has one dirctory. under the directory, There are at least 2 files in the directory, one is keyclone.txt file, and one is MD file, which describes the macro Settings, the key macro binding, and the general battle process description.
  • beast mastery hunter & deamon warlock
  • combat Rogue & dark priest

Key Setting

  • the key is defined in key.txt. The tool can be used normally only after the user gets the valid key and copies it to the key.txt
  • the original key.txt contains a trial key and it may expire
  • After getting the key from the admin and running the tool, the key will be bound to the current computer

Key Multicasting Config --- keyclone.txt

  • The built-in sync supported keys of this tool is:**A-Z, 0-9, SPACE,OEMMINUS,OEMPLUS, F1-F10(except for F11,F12)**

  • You can customize your keys to be synced by modifying the file keyclone.txt

  • Open the keyclone.txt, the original content should be :

D0 D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6 D7 D8 D9 SPACE W R U I E J Q T G Z X Y K H OEMMINUS OEMPLUS F1 F2 F3 F4

it means: digit keys 0-9, space bar, letter keys W R U I E J Q T G Z X Y K H, minus sign, plus sign,F1,F2,F3,F4 These keys will be synced, other keys will be ignored

  • Users can add or reduce the keys defined in keyclone.txt, but the added keys are only allowed in the software built-in synchronized keys.

Other MMORPG game support(Experimental, effectiveness should be explored by players)

  • press CRL+ALT+DEL,open windows task manager,select detail Tab, to find the game process name, for wow classic, the name is WowClassic.exe
  • Assume that the process name of the online game is xyz.exe
  • Make a text file named as xyz.txt, which contains the following contents
@echo off

exit
  • change the file name of xyz.txt to xyz.bat
  • run xyz.bat
