looks great. Looks like the pc's linked are DisplayPort/vga only and the monitor is HDMI only. do you use adapters for this ? did they come with the packages or is it additional costs

[@vanman2099]

Typically I use DP to HDMI cables on all of these.

Neat stuff. I use multiplicity atm. Been years since I used synergy. What's your class make up with 14?

[@vanman2099]

2x cleric 4x ranger paladin warrior enchanter druid shaman 2x bard monk, it started as a 4 box then got out of control

[@salvatorearbassio3609]

@@vanman2099 right on. Still undecided as group make up. Atm war, sk paly. 2 bard chanter wiz necro, 2 clr druid shaman ranger rouge bst monk mage. Same started out 6 box. Thanks for the content and the reply.

[@vanman2099]

@@salvatorearbassio3609 you got a nice mess going too lol, I think the 6 box combo for classic is like warrior cleric shaman monk monk bard but I could see an enchanter being used for charm instead of 2nd monk, I had started leveling an sk but gave up at like 61 and made a monk for dps.

I do sk sham bst bard mage with merc cleric on a live server

ever time someone is keyed up in discord , its because of multiplicity , i dont wanna have that annoying problem , do u know a way around it or a diff setup if u do use like 2-3 keyboards , 3 mice and laptops?

[@vanman2099]

All of that stuff is running off my main pc that isn't attached to multiplicity, if it had to be on a computer with multiplicity and it was like a push to talk thing you might have to use something like synergy and create a whitelist of keys that can only pass through or something.

[@STGinc719]

use a usb footpedal as the ptt key?

[@WH-xk5cs]

Are these still working after the directX11 requirement change?

[@vanman2099]

I have not tested it yet, I was on break from game but I will be firing it all back up shortly after I finish building my new gaming room.

[@WH-xk5cs]

@@vanman2099 Good luck on the new room build. Have one on order, will update when it arrives in a week or two.

When you do 4 pips what resolution does it run in each picture

[@vanman2099]

That’s a good question, I had to go look, I play on these minis in 1920x1080 but it lets me select all the way up to 3840x2160

[@christianherzog7972]

@@vanman2099Got a question about the pip: can I use one PC only, launch the game 4 times and put each window in one quadrant? for the purpose to no longer have to alt tab?

[@vanman2099]

@@christianherzog7972 yeah but you can't do that on the TLPs until they relax truebox, if you're doing that on a server that lets you run more than one off a single PC you can launch 4 copies of EQ in windowed mode and put them into your own "quadrants" on the monitor, if you're trying to hook the Monitor up as 4 monitors to one computer you will still need to have 4 display cables going back to your PC. You'd probably just want to run it as a single monitor and just make 4 smaller windowed Everquests. They used to have WinEQ and other things you could run that would assist in stacking/tiling your eq windows for you too. www.lavishsoft.com/wiki/index.php/WinEQ_2 don't know if it still works or if there's an alternative now.
