SOE windowed mode background macro's dont run

Post by azwildfire » Sat Feb 14, 2004 1:33 pm

is this a known bug or issue? EQW crashes in the new GOD zones... sooo i use regular SOE Windowed mode while dual boxing and whatever instance is in the background the macro's stop running or rather *pause* until it is the active window again. not an issue with EQW.

any ideas?

Um...

Okay. Since it's been posted so many times it makes my head hurt, I won't go on a rampage, YET, about how you should use the search button.

The skinny is this. MQ2 will not run in the background UNLESS you use EQW. That's the way it is. The other thing that's been talked about is how EQW doesn't play nice with DX9. Check the EQW site for more details on that.

So no rant this time.. but be kind and use the search button, kay?
