Everquest 2 - Multiboxing in World of Warcraft and Beyond!

pjdriverdude · 08-02-2009, 06:56 PM

Hello! I've purchased pwnboxer so I would be able to broadcast keys between two accounts in Everquest 2. It doesn't seem to work at all. The only thing I've been able to do successfully is start both of the Everquest two executable and that's about it.

I've noticed that pwnboxer is used with other MMOs so I was wondering if anyone else has used this successfully with Everquest 2.

Thanks

Does EQ2 go through a launcher?

Indeed it does. I was going through the executable in the EQ2 folder, which is not the launcher. I'll have to see what path the shortcut on my desktop is taking.

Would pwnboxer be able to go through a launcher? I noticed it was having a problem with warhammer's launcher in another post.

Well, I tried adding the launcher as the path with no success. It is only opening one launcher (the sony launcher only allows one to be open anyway).

I then tried to see if resizing the screens (on one monitor) with a default configuration would work, but that doesn't either.

Hey there,

We have found with a couple games (Warhammer Online, EQ2) that we need to add some tweaks to Pwnboxer to be able to work better through launchers.

It is definitely in the works!

great, let me know if you need any help testing. I'd love to be able to start 2 or 3 boxing in eq2.

That's what my crazy obsessive ass likes to hear.

Any update on this?
I would be really interested.

In EQ2, EQ1, and LOTRO you have to make the game believe it is the foreground window or else it will not accept commands. That means broadcast commands to your secondary windows will not be accepted without a workaround.

We can work with this.

Could you tell me what the executable name is of the EQ1 and EQ2 program (not the launcher) that it uses?
