New multibox program called clickboxer!

[Vyndree]

But there's no real way for me, using hardware, to reliably say "I want to go to this x,y coordinate" using a mouse multiplexer.

Technically, this IS possible to do with a specially made hardware box.

It's also possible for me to program a delay in a program using certain hardware keyboards, or a constant "rapid-fire" key on the xkeys (which was specifically called out as a "no-no" in a recent blue thread -- one keydown, one keyup per keypress), but that doesn't make it the correct use of a keyboard. The standard use of a ps2 mouse and keyboard, plugged into a multiplexer, does not allow me the advanced functionality of x,y coordinates.


Furthermore (on a rather off-topic tendril of this thread), keyclone is (afaik) the only software product that has, specifically, been addressed by the GMs. Granted, keyclone could develop brand new functionality in his future releases, but take the keyclone, in the exact release state as it was when the blues "okayed" it, and that's the closest thing to a "guarantee" any software product has (at this point).

Now stop derailing the thread. If you want to compare Keyclone to ClickBoxer, feel free to start a new thread. But for now we're treating this thread as the ClickBoxer info thread. If you want to compare ClickBoxer to all other software available, be my guest -- but a 1-vs-1 comparison is better left to its own discussion. Those tend to get quite heated, and I don't want to make closing/locking clickboxer threads a habit just because they tend to roll off-topic. Speaking from personal experience, of course. hehe

1997[/url], I played that until Beta4 of EQ in late 98 or early 99... played EQ while checking EVERY other MMO that released until WoW let me into their Beta in 2004... In the four years since WoW released I haven't had any significant desire to look elsewhere, I'm happy with the gameplay and progression the game makes, and quite frankly, I don't see myself moving on to another MMO unless that drastically changes... Since Ultima Online is still live, and it's population peaked in 2003, I'd be disappointed if WoW doesn't see the 10 year mark.

Problem is games change over time. UO was great in 97, and good till about 2000 when the devs took a major turn away from pvp and ruined the game for my friends and I. WoW could do the same thing. Fact is with a game that changes over time, its just not fun after a certain number of changes or repetitions.

Look at EQ1 and SWG for examples of drastic changes and extreme repetition.

Will wow be here in 3 years? Sure.

Will most of the people playing wow be here in 3 years? I doubt it. MMO's seem to have an extraordinary high turn over rate, getting worse and worse after your first mmo. WoW is the king now, and will be for a while, but over time people will get burned out.

...and Innerspace works with all of those games (well I don't know about UO, probably not). About any game that runs in directx is automatically supported, and those that 'might' have an issue are usually fixed quickly. WC3, DAOC, EQ/EQ2, WoW, CS:S, etc, etc. So to me it is irrelevant whether I will be playing WoW in 3 years, because chances are Innerspace will support the game I am playing at that time, right out of the box. As well as being able to use the common tools/utilities with them (Clickboxer, the sweet new Ventrilo interface, etc)

Yeah thats the main reason Im really liking IS, no matter what game I play it works with, I just hope the documentation has gotten better since the last time I used it. The site seems to have gotten an overhaul.

Documentation is an ongoing battle. You might not find a huge difference in the technical reference, but if you need more information on a given subject please just let me know so I can correct the problem. The stuff that isn't there will be added on an as-needed basis, and if nobody asks, then it's "not needed"

But yes, the main site got an overhaul and we are of course working to get everything idiot-proofed as far as basic usage and configuration for things like the Ventrilo interface and the multi-boxing tools and such, with HOWTOs and videos, etc

I don't think blizzard is going to be able to keep it alive. After we kill the lich king (What the hell we shouldn't have even killed illidan) all thats left is... Sargeras.

HAY GUIS LATS TEK OUT DIS TITAN D00D. HE CAN'T BE HRD ILVE GOT LIEK 400,000 HP AND HEZ ONLEH GOT LEIK 5,000,000,000,000,000,000 HP LOL

Yep, and it's 100% impossible for them to have created more, new lore, that we haven't even heard of yet...

They've already stated that the "other" portals in outland can lead to any number of planets, so yes they could.

We still have:

The emerald dream
under the maelstrom
the broken isles (I might be screwing that up, aren't those -in- the maelstrom?)

before blizz has to start inventing new lore.

I'm not saying they can't, I've just got the bad feeling that it won't be as good. Don't ask me why.
