[CONFIRMED TO GET FIXED] Pwnboxer bug: Autofocus game window on mouseover not working

[Iru]

I mentioned this in the latest pwnboxer release thread but had no additional details & Tim & others claimed everything was fine.

As this continued to happen today, after a clean reboot I decided to try an experiment and installed the previous version of pwnboxer into a separate folder so I could run both versions independently.

Started the new version, no autofocus. Shut everything down, started the old version and everything worked fine. Shut everything down, started the latest version and autofocus was immediately broken again. Started the old version and autofocus is again fine.

Having established that it's not me, I am back-revving my pwnboxer version until someone can clear up what might be causing this - my money is still on scary action-at-a-distance from the new dockable keymapping code

Tim, let me know if you'd like the details of what else was running, the output of dxdiag or anything similar.

Hey Iru,

I'm going to test this live during a gaming broadcast on justin.tv/multiboxing. Could you drop by and say you are Iru and try and work with me through testing this so I can make sure its AOK?

Thanks again for all the info!!

yeah, I'm getting the same problem with the new version.. but in my case sometimes works, sometimes doesn't.. And I have no ideas what I do to make it work... Probably is random..

[Tim]

Could you explain a bit more about autofocus being broken, like, it just doesnt snap your mouse?

[CAPO]

In my case, before I was able to go from one window and click normally something in another window.. Now when I want to click on another window, I have to click twice (one to "activate" the window, and the second to do the action I want).

[Tim]

Hey guys I've confirmed this and will be fixing it!

Cool. I never updated from the day I bought pwnboxer and never experienced this issue... I know some updates came out since I bought the software but I've always been one of those "if it aint broke don't fix it" folks. Glad I didn't because that woulda drove me nuts.

I'll take that as a compliment

Wow, Pwnboxer has come a long way since it was initially released! You can also have multiple versions of it on your PC to test out.

Theres a new version probably coming out today in fact with some enhancements to zoom as well as some minor bug fixes!
