v1.2 Three problems while playing WoW
from
Stardock Forums
When Playing WoW
Multiplicity 1.2 on both machines
Logitech G15 and Cordless optical Trackman
Windows XP MCE 32bit on Both machines
Primary connected by Ethernet STP 5ft
Secondary connected by WiFi 4 ft from router (doesn't disconnect from the game)
Both machines have, clean installs, latest drivers, firewall exceptions, and manual virus scanning.
--------------
Problem 1:
When switched to the secondary machine, when I use R+L mouse buttons to move,
it will sometimes lock up the mouse for 5-10 sec.
Result: running uncontrollably running into large packs of enemies
Problem 2:
Upon switching from primary to secondary OR secondary to primary while holding down any of the movement keys q/w/e/a/s/d instead of stopping the keystroke upon switch it continues to hold the keystroke until you switch back and press the keystroke in the direction that you are moving.
This might have to do with the way keystrokes are registered "W(down)" and when you release "W(up)" pressing down W and releasing on the secondary will not register the release of W on the primary.
I can see how some might use this to their advantage but I wish it could be toggled off.
Result: Spinning around in circles, running forward or backward into packs of enemies.
Problem 3:
When switched to the secondary machine control will be lost at random and reestablished on the primary machine.
Result: when coupled with problem 2 this is a big problem... holding down "W" and getting randomly disconnected prevents me from being able to stop. (problem 3 forces problem 2 to happen)
-------------------
I was going to ask about it in the WoW community forms but I figured I would ask here first.
If anyone has suggestions for things to try, please respond, I'm open.
