Multi-Machine emulators are programs that transmit key presses to multiple windows on the same machine, or on a combination of machines. See the link up top for more on topic.

"Is it sending an identical signal to all client windows or switching between them to send commands? Not automation.

Is it playing the game for you, or rather, for one of your client windows? Automation.

All hardware is considered neutral as long as its commands and features are not being used to automate gameplay."

The same sort of thing can be accomplished very easily using multiple wireless keyboards of the same type using multiple computers not to mention the semi widely used method of pressing keys on two wired keyboards hooked to two computers.

Honestly since we're limited to playing 2 characters at a time in SoD, the usefulness of ISBoxer or similar is pretty slim to begin with.

Doing something like playing 6 shaman in WoW, or 4 wizards in EQ, would definitely benefit from being able to press 1 key to have all of them cast the same spell simultaneously. In SoD, not so much.

I suppose if you were playing 2 DPS classes you could set it up so when you nuke on 1 window, the other character does the same thing, etc. It really is pretty trivial to control 2 characters manually though so I think it would cause more headaches than it would solve.

I would consider both of the above to be in violation of the "spirit of the law" of Shards of Dalaya.

And if Belfaire were on SoD staff, his opinion might actually matter!

It's irrelevant anyway since frame rate determines how fast you can do things like spin and your frame rate changes based on your focus/background tasks/horoscope.
