Activate windows/repeater in the lobby?

I am playing a game with a terrible long loading screen. I would like to be able to open multiple launchers of the game at the same time and be able to use the repeater to click play on multiple lobbys at the same time. Is this possible?

If i open them one by one the repeater works fine for all the windows after the game has launched in directx.

Re: Activate windows/repeater in the lobby?

DirectX rendering is the point at which all the magic stuff happens. If the launcher uses DirectX, then it may be possible. If it doesn't use DirectX then

The other issue is that most launchers don't allow multiple copies to be running at the same time. Some do though. You can set the time between launches in the Character Set. The default is 1 second. You can set this to 0. InnerSpace will tend to launch the second game instance as soon as DirectX rendering starts to occur, so if your launcher is rendering in DirectX it should all work.

Sometimes game also have parameters or other methods to lessen the splash screens that many have pop up. Sometimes you can find these on the internet (or in various forums like these), or you can search through the executable for contenders, or if you are good, you can lookup the jmp tables.

Hey, thanks a lot for your answer !

It is possible to launch multiple launchers/lobbys of the game at the same time.

I had the impression that a lot of games also did not allow multiple instances to open at the same time. But being able to open multiple instance is one of the features of ixboxer?. Like make virtual machines for each game window?

Is there a reason the magic only happens when directx launches? im sure there is a need for software like isboxer for windows applications?
