Worth boxing in EVE?

[blast3r]

Hey all. Been a while since I posted on the site.

I have two EVE Online accounts and have been trying to find some recent information about boxing it as well as using ISBoxer for EVE. I haven't had much luck, and by the looks of the posts in this forum, it doesn't seem very busy. Is anyone boxing EVE? If so, please share your thoughts. Thanks!!

Late reply but...

Multiboxing is extremely prevalent in EVE Online, particularly among nullsec/wormhole players. At this point since key broadcasting is not allowed, you're effectively just multi-clienting. ISBoxer does work with EVE, but most people just use EVE O Preview.

To add a bit to EatCarbs response, you not only cannot use key broadcasting but also cannot use VideoFX to modify the UI/layout of EVE client windows. I can't remember if it was verboten to create another separate dxNothing window and dump things in there so you could monitor it.

That's effectively the same thing, so yes. More or less, just don't use VideoFX or key broadcasting with EVE and you're golden.

I know i'm 5 months late, but thanks. I knew about the key rebroadcasting but I was happily setting up VideoFX etc ;3
