Hi, without wanting to search for an answer Im posting here instead

Cool, thanks guys I knew it was possible before just heard some multiboxing policies have changed recently as well as the new launcher etc, i was septic as to if I could have multiple accounts logged without being at risk of a ban

Thanks all

There have been no such policy changes I'm aware of. One of the GMs explicitly said the policy on ISBoxer had not changed.

If I decide to have another account, is it possible to run both accounts at the same time no problem?

Thanks

How?

I'm shocked.

This is GD, I expected someone to give the OP hell for not searching, instead I see every post is a helpful response. Is this a sign of the end of days or something?

What's up?

I'm shocked.

People go read the discussion on the dev blog from the security team. There has been changes to the policy regarding ISBoxer. GM Lelouch was the one who said it was ok, but 3 days ago, he edited the 3 year old post to change the policy, basically saying that they can't say if it's ok or not.... use at your own risk as they are not sure it's not breaking the EULA.

Cant find the actual post, but ccp eterne said the stance on isboxer hadent changed, he said this fairly recently.

I'm shocked.

BTW, what sort of performance do you see running two instances of the game on one PC?

Seems people are getting banned for the use of things like ISBoxer.

Search for ISBoxer.

how about he searches for the other 40 broadcasting software thats also freeware?

They had to revise their statement, because ISBOXER does break the EULA.

"You may not use your own or any third-party software, macros or other stored rapid keystrokes or other patterns of play that facilitate acquisition of items, currency, objects, character attributes, rank or status at an accelerated rate when compared with ordinary Game play."

Since ISBoxer does provide a single player, with advantages over another single player not using it, it's against the EULA.

ISBoxer is free, but to run it requires purchasing an Inner Space license from Lavish Software. $15 for 90 days.

"Compared with ordinary gameplay" - ISboxer doesn't accelerate anything, it makes it slightly easier to make multiple accounts do the same thing. This is something that can also be done with out ISboxer with a little more :effort:

Some reading material for you. I would speculate that the reason for the policy change is due to ISboxer now offering users the capability to bot if they want to pay extra money or put a little effort in to coding the new module. Using it to multibox is still just fine according to CCP.

Stop drinking the koolaid.

Person 1:
Runs 20 accounts, No ISBoxer
Person 2:
Runs twenty accounts with ISboxer.

Do you really want to claim that that doesn't provide an huge advantage? Trying to justify it's use?

Doesn't matter, CCP is hooked on Alts, so the more you buy, the better...

Who knows, in a couple of years, you may be playing with yourself....

You're claiming that executing a single keystroke or mouse click is not faster than doing the same thing 20 times. Or that 20 ships does not execute a task faster than one ship.

Yeah, an ISBoxed character is not any more accelerated than normally played character.

But an ISBoxer is acquiring ingame items at an accelerated pace compared to normal player when both control the same number of characters.

Furthermore ISBoxer massively extends the maximum amount of accounts a single player can feasibly control.

Compare this to a mission-running bot running one account 23/7 - perfectly possible by human without external programs as well. Activating a module on 40 ships simultaneously- impossible for a human without external programs. Yeah yeah one can construct mechanical devices that replicate keypresses across accounts.

But so can one construct mechanical device that runs missions. And yet one is banned, other not.

Search for ISBoxer.

"PC" covers a hell of a lot of hardware / software / configurations.

My personal best about 2y ago on XP was 9 with max graphics. As a guesstimate on my hardware today 15 - 20.
