Multiclient trick
So when i used to play and multiclient, there was a trick for controlling both clients simultaneously.
Anyone know how this was done?

Easy, it was done through leaking. You just need to minimize one by clicking the toolbar icon instead of the minimize button and it will leak any input.

I think that only happens on Windows XP, it's been a long time since I've leaked anything. If you get a script to rapidly flick between the two windows you can control them pretty well.

Thanks :) had to disable combining in the taskbar but it worked perfectly in windows 7. I had to have one window maximized and one normalized, hold a key on the one that is maximized and minimize it, swapping to the normalized window ASAP.
For anyone else who tries this, remember that the window you minimize will receive ALL input from keyboard, this would include things like messaging applications and other junk. So refocus and normalize(restore) both windows before you do anything else.

It works on windows 7 too, I have to make sure I minimize mine correctly all the time so I don't end up leaking credentials or anything.

Also works on windows vista. Just one character would lag a little. Not sure if that happened on XP or 7.

I usually just hold ctrl. Window shouldn't have to be maximized though.
On a further note, you may want to mentally start clicking "Login" and "Ok" buttons instead of pressing enter, or at least check your client before pressing enter...if you even want to leave the damn thing open. xD

Leaking occurs on all versions of Windows. As Plasma said, a popup window will block it. Easiest is clicking the logout button. It will disable chat from the client.

Well I really ment, watch what you're doing when you're entering credentials and such. ---
