That way the update file remains in the install folder and you can copy paste it over to the rest of the installs and not have to download it several times. This only works if you keep your clients updated together, of course. You don;t need to separate installations anymore, so this isn't needed. They fixed the issues that caused those.
If you did still want to do it, you can still actually do it with 1 installation. Install it to like C:\EVE, then create NTFS junction from that folder C:\EVE2, C:\EVE3, etc. Then when you update 1, they all update but the settings sill split out.

On a more serious note, I did say before that the whole thing seems to be much ado about nothing.
So either the limited changes CCP have made to the rules governing the use of ISboxer have not really impacted on the play-style of ISboxers, or they have, in which case CCP probably did the right thing.

Having multiple screens can be an advantage, having better data mouse can be an advantage, having more sp can be an advantage. I remember that People ''cried'' in some other games that i have played that the people who killed them was using gaming mouses.. it's like, lol.. Having multiple Manufacturing characters in eve is an advantage. a lot is an advantage.. having a good computer that don't lag is an advantage, having a good internet is an advantage.. etc etc.lol |

Still don't see where I ranted and raved about "the Man is keepin me down" (very heavily paraphrased with the help of two screwdrivers). I've admitted that this will stop the HQ solo runners. I'll also admit it will stop the 50-man bombing runs from the larger fleets. But anyone who's dedicated enough will and has found a way to continue multiboxing. Scroll wheel down bound to F1, scroll wheel up bound to left click, and ta-da. If CCP wanted to do the right thing, they would've balanced the game instead of immediately pulling out the banhammer.
Never forget: CCP Seagull and other Devs LIED to everyone during Fanfest and EVE Vegas: "Multiboxers have nothing to worry about" and "Nothing's changing regarding multiboxing".
If CCP is willing to lie about that, what's next?

On a purely personal level, as I have said before, I want everybody and their alts to ISbox very large mining fleets to keep down the costs of the raw materials I need for my production of T1 rigs etc.
This means that on a personal level, I am not for, or against ISboxing in terms of whether or not it is bad or good for the game as a whole.
I leave that for CCP to decide.

WRONG!!!
Multiboxing refers to playing as multiple separate characters simultaneously in an MMORPGs. This can either be achieved by using multiple separate machines to run the game or by running multiple separate instances of the game. and if you have as many screens as you do toons you don't need to alt tab. your builds must be pretty crappy to have to use 4 |

Yet at the same time miners will be happy to be getting paid more.
The trouble with a game that allows multiple kinds of fun is that no one course of action ever makes everyone equally happy.
As for me, I'll just be glad to be able to go into Jita and not have to go through the list of spammers setting them each to "block" "block" "block"..... only to have a new spammer pop up. Or is that use of macros still allowed? (God I hope not.) |

A few others are going to continue VGs, and someone had just brought up the idea of heading to a quiet nullsec and running a fleet of AFKTars before I accidentally clicked "yes" to Windows Update.

I don't see any bias or anything that would make one question the validity of the statements. The only reason both he and I chose WP over something like the OED is because the OED does not have an entry on multiboxing. e: Additionally, I fail to see how this would be construed as an "idea" over a "fact".

In the past, multiboxing did refer to multiple PCs, hence the term. Now that PCs are able to more effectively multitask and that leaps and bounds have been made in the area of virtualisation, multiboxing refers to running multiple clients regardless of hardware setup.

You know, honestly, I've been surprised that this is the route they took regarding input multiplexing and multiboxing.
I would have expected them to add THEIR OWN multiboxing tools or control system, seeing as most eve players own more than one account, and that they try to sell extra accounts to people.
i am curious about future developments regarding multiboxing and 3rd party tools.... |

My favorite part about this rule change is how a large portion of the population now believes that multiboxing in general is illegal. I've been active because my accounts have four days left so I don't have anything to lose (active while following the rule change with only one command going to one client at a time).
I've had several people tell me I was breaking the rules and at least one fellow who was going to report me for multiboxing.. Oh joy |
