Glad it has spurred you on.
Why don't I export my 5-box configuration and send it to you - PM me your email address - as that would give you a place to start... the video feeds might not be in exactly the right place but you can tweak it to what you want.
Eve really is a lot easier to get up and running with ISBoxer, short of WoW.
ha - just realised that's me in post #55 on this thread, when I started Eve boxing last year - come a long way in Eve since then
How do you get the abbreeviated views on the right hand screen. I have followed the wiki on setting up dxNothing and have nothing like that, Main screen is one character and second character is a very small windows on the second screen. I must be missing something here.
Moog
you said "Again, all 5 clients are stacked on the left screen and I use F1-F5 to select which char I'm currently driving with.
Right hand monitor has video feeds showing the ship modules/controls, drones and targets.
The green lights are something I use to indicate which client has broadcasting on - I've lost count of how many times I've spammed the corp channel with all my clients!!!"
how do you get the video feeds onto the right hand monitor? Is that another peice of software or part of IsBoxer?
Thanks in advance .
Open the isboxer GUI in game and create
vfx sources over the things you want to see, give everything a unique name. Then save as 'auto'. Do this for all your characters. Then go to the 'dxnothing' screen, open the GUI and load in all the vfx viewers that you require
I've just emailed you my 5-box config - extract the files where instructed in the mail and you should see exactly what I have set up... you can then tweak it to your desire.
But to answer the question, dxNothing is part of ISBoxer - you'll see in the config when you load it into the ISBoxer toolkit that there are characters EVE-PVE-01 to 05 and a dxNothing character, which gets loaded into slot 6 and runs on the right hand monitor in my setup.
dxNothing then hosts the video feeds - you define source windows on each of the 5 clients (identical windows in this case) and then have a viewer window on the dxNothing for each source feed
If you've loaded up my config, go to one of the clients and press ctrl-shift-alt-g to toggle the GUI on and you will see all of the video feed source windows for that client - do that same on the dxNothing window and you will see the viewer windows
I'm pretty sure there's a series of steps in here somewhere that explains how to set up DXNothing in EVE specifically and how some of us have used it to show just the parts of the main windows that we want to see. For example:

There's a lot of information out there. Have patience and make sure you understand each individual concept before you try to put it all together in dangerous space.

I followed this youtube vid step by step, and I have a really good blackscreen dashboard setup (using dxnothing). I manage 4 toons from the dashboard, it's a good vid:
