Published on May 22, 2005 By ctophermurray In Multiplicity
I've had some difficulty with the non-pro version of Multiplicity and City of Heroes. I use the left computer for the primary and the computer on the right side as secondary. During gameplay I will run into this problem. I move the mouse to the right screen and switch computers. Then I move back to the primary and drop both mouse and keyboard control in City or Heroes. If I alt tab out of COH I can see that I still have control of both mouse and keyboard in other programs. If I move back to the secondary I have control over both on the secondary but short of unloading Multiplicity and COH on the primary and restarting both I haven't been able to find a solution. My Thanks, C

Neil,

Any updates on your progress on these games?
on Oct 11, 2006
Last post was on August 31, 2006 06:20:55. Its now Oct 11 and you have posted nothing to show any progress on this... ITs not very hard to recreate the issue. Setup 2 accounts 1 on the primary computer and 1 on the second computer.. make sure you logged in and playing. Keep switching back and forth for a few min and you will see that you have lost connection to it and will no longer be able to use the main. Not sure why this is taking so long for you to resolve this issue but im getting sick of it...

Hey guys,

I have been jumping into City of Heros for about 15 min randomly through the end of last week on this one. We are also planning on making more tests for EQ. A of yet I have not replicated this problem. I have read this post along but I would like to get in a dialog with someone on this to help me test it. Perhaps a live one. Either contact me through our IRC channels or send me a emai at travis@stardock.com please. I would like to get this resolved for you as soon as possible.

Cheers,
Seabass

Just bought mutiplicity too... Playing EQ and get same problem. 2nd runs fine whole time but Primary get keyboard loss in game after awhile... alt+tab still works and i can move mouse around... but clicks doesnt get responded in game. Nothing is affected in browser and so on...

You maybe should look at synergy... it works great with that program if you dont count their problem with mouse sensivity on 2nd comp in games (its like mouse on LSD)

Please look into this. I would gladly help with testing if you have a debug version that making logs i can send to ya.

Ciao

Any update on the progress?

Neil, Seabass, and anyone else looking into this matter:

I'm having the identical problem EQ1, and it's pretty much preventing me from using the features of multiplicity when I'm playing. I'd love to be able to get use out of the product I bought, so...

Can you please update us with the status of your research into this matter? Did you manage to reproduce the problem? Any ETA on a fix?

I can help with replication of the issue in EQ1 if you're still unable. For me it generally happens when I'm working on a secondary for more than a minute, then the input poofies on the primary.

Hi,

I posted on this elsewhere but I will update here as well.

We know about the issue with CoH and EQ1 and 2. I was able, through help of our customers, to get some accounts and replicate the problem. I have spoken with the developers on the matter. What is being considered is that the anti cheat features of the games are interrupting Multiplicity. The reason that this is taking so long is two fold.

1) We are still working on how to correct this.

2) We don't want our software exploiting anti cheat software of another company. It isn't neighborly.

Rest assured that I bug our developers on this and the matter is in no way closed. If you wish to get refunds you will have to ask our good staff at sales@stardock.com. However please know that this issue will get resolved one way or another. Till then feel free to bug me with any other questions you might have.

Also the second I know something or an update is made available I will post back here with all the info.

Cheers,

Hmmm...I have been using multiplicity with EQ2 for 6 months or so. Works beautifully. EQLive on the other hand...

Argh... I wish I had seen this thread before placing my order! 

How 'bout giving us a progress report seeing as you've had 6 months or so to work on a solution?

Just want to add to this. Apparently there is a similar problem in Vanguard also. What happens is the right click is accepted in mouselook on the primary machine but moving the mouse no longer moves the character. This happens after it runs fine for a few minutes.

ZubaZ waves at Scott.
Hope this gets fixed for you.
