Mouse repeater not working

I just updated my client yesterday. Now the mouse repeater doesn't work anymore. More info:

EQ1 boxing was not working well due to the DX11 update. Updating to the Inner Space version to Build 7260 fixed this.

Once on 7260, the mouse repeater stopped showing on all screens for EQ2. The clicks work, but I can't see the mouse on the other character screens. I followed these instructions, but it didn't help: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=11151 - But it didn't help.

Re: Mouse repeater not working

Update, after checking this box (see image), nothing was fixed. Now mouse repeater stopped working on BOTH EQ1 & EQ2. Unchecking the box didn't seem to help.

Re: Mouse repeater not working

I deleted my repeater profile for both games. Then I dragged in the Character sets to the Repeater profile window, as to recreate my repeater profile. This was advised by the onscreen instructions. This did not help.

Re: Mouse repeater not working

I figured out half the problem. The fist box must be checked at the top "show fake cursor..."

So, this got me back to where I started. EQ1 is working, EQ2 is not. This update "seems" to have broken the repeater for EQ2.

Re: Mouse repeater not working

We haven't had any other reports of this so my immediate suspicion is there is a software cursor being used in EQ2.

How do check "Software Cursor" ?

There is more to this story. (may not be relevant, just being thorough...)

Last year I was on "1.19 build 7111" - I randomly updated and it broke EQ2. I rolled back to 7111 and it fixed everything. LAX sent a message (see link below) saying he fixed 7204's problem and I should I update to 7208. I never did. I just stayed on 7111 until now, because everything worked just fine. Until the DX11 update from Daybreak (EQ1). This forced me to update to 7260.

So, the new update (7260) fixed the problem with EQ1 because of the DX11 issue, but seems to have taken away my cursor on EQ2. I am hoping it's a setting.

Re: Mouse repeater not working

I found Software Cursor, I didn't realize it was a EQ2 setting. No, this option is NOT enabled.

Re: Mouse repeater not working

I'm not aware of any other reason for it, unless the Fake Cursor option in the repeater profile is unticked, but your screen shot showed it was ticked, so didn't go down that route.

You might try disabling the New Virtual Input option in the InnerSpace configuration. See if that helps.

Thanks for the suggestion. I just tried this does not seem to help. I have uninstalled and done a clean install of IS and ISB, set up a simple 2 box character set for EQ2 and everything works perfectly, other then I can't see the mouse cursor on the 2nd game instance. Which is game breaking.

I've tried putting both game windows on 1 monitor.
Tried putting them in separate monitors
Tried enabled and disabled "allow active cursor window" - Though, this is for multi-PC. I am using 1 PC with 3 monitors.
Tried toggling " Fake Cursor option"
Tried 2 characters sets up to 6 characters sets.
Tried toggling "Disable New Virtual Input"

This problem started when having to update InnerSpace due to DX11 update by EQ. I'm at a loss of things try try.

Re: Mouse repeater not working

Tried something else. I tried this on another machine. Same problem.

First PC is Win 11, i9, RTX 3080
Second PC Win 10, i7 RTX 2080

Both do not show mouse on second or third game windows.
