Did a quick search for 'playxpert' and didn't find anything...

A company is developing a in-game overlay product that would do away with ALT-TABbing. I'm curious if using this application overlay would be OK w/ ArenaNet. By the description, it should even touch the GW client, but better safe than account banned. I can't imagine it'd be any different than running a VOiP client in the background.

Thoughts on the product, anyone (devs included)? It would be nice not to have to go into window mode every time I wanted to look something up on the wiki or GWG...

Disclaimer: Not at all associated with this company, just think it'd be a nice thing to have. Found it on the Big Download blog.

I use dual monitor setup for this purpose, so meh.

But yes, it's ok with Anet. It's even OK with any game. The only condition is that it doesn't interfere with gameplay in negative way. This primarily includes botting.

Using voice overlays or similar however has never been a problem.

Guild Hall, Vent, Guesting, PvE, or the occasional HA match...

I registered myself at their web, but didn't downloading it yet, as they are preparing a new version. Will look into this tomorrow and virus scan it. It looks sincere though. :P

You should know

It will probably be ok because it doesn't do anything to the game
