So, I found ID somewhere online through lots of free option multiboxing stuff, because i'm broke and don't want to do 36/yr for IS boxer and run the chance it not even work. anyways back to the point at hand, I know there's several programs that are free and legal, But 90% of them don't support background broadcasting, and I have three pcs so not being able to background cast is.... troublesome. I couldn't have looked like more of an idiot on my team when only two were jumping and casting, which i think was a miscalculation, but then again i was using HKN and I've not been able to get it to send keystrokes to anything yet, macros or otherwise. So How will using the keyboard mirror option in ID be different or will it even matter at all ? I run two wow's on my master, being my desktop, and I run the other two on my two laptops, so I don't know if the two on one thing will even be possible or not and I'm too tired to try it out. thanks for the help, Happy Boxing

HotKeyNet shouldn't have any problems with background input if you have adjusted your Sendmode Setting in the Options and are using the proper sendmode

I haven't had any problems using HotKeyNet to send commands to games that require focus to receive input, like LotRO, or games that do not require focus, like WoW. It sounds more like it's not background applications having an issue, it's the connection to your other computers.

Do you have a copy of HotKeyNet running on each computer?
Are they all connected and loaded with your script?
Are the secondary computers set up as clients and the primary as master?

Yes I do, I make sure to check it every time i turn them on


Are they all connected and loaded with your script?

I wasn't aware that I had to load a script on each one, I always thought that the server was the host of the script and the slaves just obey, I can try to reload each script again and try.



Are the secondary computers set up as clients and the primary as master?

Yes This is another double check I've done.
I think it's allot of user error on my end because I don't fully understand everything about HKN.

How ever I'm madly in love with Id, except that when I move my curser to one of my other computers my main character decides to run off in random directions lols

I can upload the script files for some one to take a look at and guide me if necessary
