Hey, I am using Mosg2's setup, and I am having problems with mouse repeater. It will turn on, and then it will stick the mouse in the center of the main screen, and if I try and move it, it jumps back to the center.. kind of like the mouse repeater is active on more than one window, but I don't think it is, and I cant find anything wrong with it. Mosg2 uses 1 computer and has no problems, anyone have a solution, or encountered this in SWTOR?

Are you using input director to control the 2nd PC or some other software?
yeah, will that cause the problem? I am using Input Director. BUT, even when I move my mouse on the second computer off the swtor screens, and then hit the mouse repeater on my main, it still doesnt work
The only thing I can think of is a setting in InputDirector that centers the mouse when you switch to the other PC, though that's supposed to only happen when using hotkeys to switch and it is not a default option I believe. Any other software that's trapping the mouse? I'd start shutting down apps until it went away, then see if it starts doing it again. Also, did this only start happening after updating to ISBoxer 40? You might check with Lax and see if you can get an older version to test with if that's the case, just to rule out ISB as part of the problem.
I only started boxing SWTOR in isboxer version 40. I got the mouse repeater to work once or twice, but I cant remember what I did, I know i mived the mouse to the far left of the screen once, but when i repeated that several times, it failed to work again. ill test it out some more soon.
The only thing that comes to mind is if you really are turning on mouse broadcasting *from* both PCs. The default Activate Repeat mapped key (Shift+Alt+R hotkey, and the "A,A" icon) activates it only in the current window, so you would have had to either set up your own broadcasting hotkey (e.g. in your Repeater Profile, under Hotkeys, if you configured one there that would be important to mention since there is an "all windows" toggle option there that would affect both PCs), or edited that Mapped Key, in order for this to be the issue.
If you broadcast from both PCs, and both PCs have an active foreground window with the mouse in it, and you turn on mouse broadcasting from both, then they will attempt to broadcast to each other.
Broadcasting mouselook (right click and hold, move mouse) will not be incredibly successful in SWTOR at the moment if you try that. Especially not if both PCs are trying to broadcast mouselook to each other, and even more not if one is mouselooking while the other is not. SWTOR centers the mouse -- every single frame -- while it is hidden for mouselook, and that centering can get broadcast too.
I could probably rule this out by seeing your configuration. HOWTO: Share your configuration for better support
