So, now it's all one big happy mouse??

Before this patch, the mouse position in each EQ window was separate from the others. So, if I left my mouse in a certain spot in Window 1 and then alt-tabbed to window 2 (both in Full Screen Mode) and moved the mouse around, when I alt-tabbed back to window one, the mouse would still be where I left it (when I left window 1).

Now, it's all one mouse across all windows. When I move it in one window, that's where it ends up when I flip back to the other windows. I realize this is how Windows work, but I LIKED it the OLD way. When two-boxing, I want my mouse to be where I left it!

Any way we might be able to get this functionality back ?

I'll see what I can do to make something optional for you.

Thanks, Lax. That would be awesome!

I hear ya on that, I would leave my mouse on top of my hotkey bar and cycle through, using whatever abilities I liked.

The new setup is certainly playable, minus one annoyance. If you use the right mouse buttom to look around on a second or third window, the mouse moves up to the first window when completed. Not an overly big deal, just making you aware if you weren't already.

A new problem I am having involving the mouse is that in say Everquest when I right click and use the mouse to mouselook things get screwy. Lets say the cursor is right in the middle of my everqest session. Ok now I right click and hold to turn my toon with the mouse. When I release the right click to stop turning my mouse cursor is up at the very top left of my session now and even sometimes off the session completely I think. So every time I right click and hold to mouse look when I let go of the click I have to pull the cursor down. Not a huge deal but somethin you might want to look in to.

One more addendum: If I am in-game and I resize my window, it throws off the mouse detection, as if it is still thinking my window is a different size. It's fixable by restarting wineq and setting sizes before getting in-game.
