Multiple Cursors On Two Monitors While In Game

MrMCGuy

I'm not sure if this is in the right spot, but, I was wondering if it is possible to have two cursors, one on each monitor and be able to use both, while in a full-screen game. One would be for the game and the other for my second monitor. Is it possible to use the one on the second monitor without tabbing out of the game? I know there are programs but I don't know if they work like that.

As far as I know this is not possible, at least with a stock OS.  Using VMs you could probably pull it off but that's a whole other rabbit hole.  Also the answer is going to be platform specific and not related to your monitor, so I'm moving this to the Windows subforum, as I'm assuming that's your OS

i use a program called teamplayer for that exact purpouse, but you'll need two physical mouses, one for each cursor, i dont know if there is a way of doing that with just one mouse

In theory you could have mouse macro running in-game while you do other stuff. But setting that up will take time.

Ok, thanks!

 

EDIT: I downloaded pluralinput, but the mouse won't click, any idea why?

does this allow you to interact with two separate windows at the same time? or do the windows still focus one at a time but both mice can call focus?

Yes, you can use it with two separate monitors
