I need something (prefereably free) that will allow me to mouse turn both toons.

Mouse turning is when I hold down the right mouse button and my character turns based on which way I slide my mouse.

Its not mouse clicking I'm concerned with, only mouse turn.

I've used hotkeynet which I'm pretty sure has no support for that kind of thing however I tried Mubox thinking it might but have so far been unsuccessful in doing so.

Is there a program out there that will allow me to mouse turn both characters?

I'm running two accounts on two different machines by the way.

ISboxer allows you to set a keybind to toggle mouse movement mimicking on all toons.

Thanks for the reply.

I have a question about ISBoxer.

I see in one way or another that it has to be paid for. But I'm not understanding the cost.

Are they saying you have to maintain an active subscription to ISBoxer? I don't mind a one time fee to use a product someone took the time to create but I'm not paying a monthly fee to use it lol.

You can do a free trial, but that is short term.
It will let you know if you want it or not.

After that, there's a shorter subscription.
And a longer subscription.
If you say you were referred by someone else, your subscription is longer for the same price.
And they get some free time too.
The longer subscription is a year, but you get around 13 months if you list someone as the referral.

But Inner Space is a subscription that unless renewed will expire.

I personally think its the best boxing option out there.
And many would agree to that.
But there are a lot of other options to look at.
HKN is free, and it is extremely powerful too.

Mubox has a "Mouse Clone" feature which replicates the mouse movement over all toons. I don't use it for panning views, and panning the view would only work correctly if you had separate machines (e.g. mouse cloning on a single machine requires all windows to be overlapped, until I can figure out a way to replicate the mouse data differently.)

Yeah, it's kind of retarded. I don't think the TOS concerns were ever resolved either.

Normally you clone your keys and use /follow to get the slaves to tag along. Independently changing the direction of both and then using movement keys to move forward won't work, they'll diverge if they're not perfectly aligned, which they won't really ever be.

Keyclone does everything I've ever needed done and is cheap and doesn't have stupid licensing plans. HKN is free but you need to learn how to set up scripts for it.

There are no ToS concerns with IS/ISBoxer + WoW. If anyone feels differently, I'd urge you to speak to Lax directly about your concerns.

In the world we live in you get what you pay for... for free or low cost you can get tolerable mouse replication.

For a low monthly fee ($36/year) you can have the absolute best in mouse replication available...

You mean like the TOS concerns of any 3rd party software currently available - the one where Blizzard hasn't given ANYTHING it's approval. (The one title that was almost given a nod of approval has since become inoperable and it's new versions which do operate have dozens of new features Blizz never signed off on.)

It all depends on what you think something is worth. Keep in mind IS is 36/yr for 5 computers, KC is 20 for 1 computer. Many do not use more than 1 computer so that is moot, but its important to note. However the ease, feature set and continued development make IS worth it for me.

Also we are looking forward to the new IS2 based software package (secretly named at the moment.) :D

And if you subscribe to IS you are already subscribed to the new product when it releases... so it's not like you have to buy a new app for a new version.

IS Boxer has a free 7 day trial.

They way I look at it, you have superb support for an amazing product.
There is nothing out there, that has all the features of IS Boxer.
And it costs you nothing to try it.

If you decide you like it, mention someone as your referral.
And you get an extra 30 days subscription.
So $36 per 13 months, less then $4 a month.
