Multiboxing Guide : how to start multiboxing in 5min
What is multiboxing :
multiboxing is the art of playing multiple characters at the same time. we can do this thanks to software like HKN, wich broadcast our keystrokes to all our wow clients. we use also the Jamba addon to make things easier like flight path travel.
what you will need to start multiboxing :
-wow client (3.3.5)
-jamba addon (release 0.7b)
-mbxing software (HotKeyNet)
-at least two different wow accounts.
how to download HKN and setup :
https://github.com/nanpuhaha/HotkeyN...keynet_210.zip (from github, nanpuhaha)
open hotkeynet.zip and extract into a new folder.
copy paste HKN script (raw) into a new text file. save it as "script1"
https://gist.github.com/jonathanarge..._5_players-txt (from github, hkn script)
now launch HKN and then click "load script". search for the "script1" you just created.
HKN will now say or not if there is any errors within the script. if there is any errors, you will need to correct them otherwise it will not work. this script will need aslo a couple more things to rewrite. (more on that later)
open your wow folder, copy paste the wow folder adress into the script. for me, it looks like this :
<Run "D:GamesWoW 3.3.5 USWow.exe">
now save the script, reload it and try launching the game to see if it works (with alt ctrl L).
at this point you should have 5 wow clients popping up. to rename them, use ctrl r. now the 5 wow client are correctly named "wow1" "wow2" etc.
login with your two accounts or more and try doing something simple like using mount. if the mount is set on the same key on all of your character and the HKN is running and on, all should mount at the same time. if not, check if HKN hotkeys are on or not. a red cross is shown when its off.
You are now multiboxing two or more client at the same time congratz.
To setup Jamba addon :
first download from curseforge the file for 3.3.5 (release 0.7b)
https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/jamba/files/all
then unzip/put in the addon folder in your wow directory. (interface/addons)
In game, type : /jamba and change the following :
loot --> free for all
team display -> you have to put the same character name on all your slaves jamba accounts. on each of your seperate windows, make sure the same name is set as master : click add name, then set as "master" click push settings.
Quest Watcher : enable or disable // hide blizzard objectives uncheck it. (my preference)
jamba proc : you can disable it.
jamba item use : show on master only. this is usefull for stuff like heartstone
