EverQuest multiboxing PiP overlay tool for Windows.
Stonemite puts picture-in-picture thumbnails of your other EQ windows on top of your active game window, with click-to-swap, drag-to-reorder, hover highlighting, and character name labels.
Download the latest release from GitHub Releases:
- Installer (
stonemite-x.y.z-setup.exe) — installs to Program Files, creates Start Menu shortcut, optional Windows startup - Portable (
stonemite-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.zip) — extract and run anywhere
A system tray icon appears with access to all settings. Check for updates from the tray menu.
Requires Rust (MSVC toolchain) and just.
just build # debug build
just build-release # release build
Target: x86_64-pc-windows-msvc
just release 0.2.0
This bumps the version in Cargo.toml, builds a release binary, and packages it into dist/stonemite-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.zip. Then:
- Commit and tag:
git add -A && git commit -m "Release v0.2.0" && git tag v0.2.0 - Push:
git push && git push --tags - Create a GitHub release for the tag and upload the zip
The app checks for updates against eqlaika/stonemite GitHub releases via the self_update crate.
ISBoxer has been the go-to multiboxing tool for years. It's also a bloated, overengineered relic built on top of Inner Space — a game injection framework from 2004. Here's how Stonemite compares:
| Stonemite | ISBoxer | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free, open source | ~$50/year subscription for PiP windows |
| Setup | Run the installer, done | Endless wizard pages, Inner Space install, character slots, window layout configs |
| PiP overlays | Native DWM thumbnails, click-to-swap, drag-to-reorder | Video FX regions piped through a game injection layer |
| Character labels | Auto-detected from EQ log files | Manual per-character setup |
| Input broadcasting | Not included | Full key/mouse broadcasting and round-robin |
| Window management | Auto-detects EQ windows, z-order stacking | Window layouts with snapping and resizing |
| Resource usage | ~5 MB single exe, no injection | Inner Space + ISBoxer addon, injects into every game process |
| Updates | One-click from system tray | Manual download through Inner Space |
When to use Stonemite: You want a PiP overlay that just works — no injection, no subscription, no 45-minute setup wizard. Launch it and go.
When to use ISBoxer: You need input broadcasting or you enjoy configuring software more than playing EverQuest.
Config lives at %APPDATA%\Stonemite\config.toml. See config/example.toml for options.
Stonemite sends a single anonymous ping on each launch to help me understand if anyone is using the app. The payload contains only:
- A random anonymous ID (UUID, not tied to your identity)
- App version
- Windows version
No personal information, EQ character names, or config details are collected. Telemetry can be disabled by setting telemetry = false in %APPDATA%\Stonemite\config.toml, or by checking "Disable anonymous usage telemetry" during installation.
Stonemite does not inject into, modify, or interact with the EverQuest process in any way. It uses standard Windows DWM thumbnail APIs to display copies of your game windows — the same mechanism Windows uses for taskbar previews and Alt-Tab. This is significantly less invasive than ISBoxer, which injects into every game process via Inner Space and is widely used without issue.
That said, use Stonemite at your own risk. The author is not responsible for any account actions including suspensions, bans, or other consequences resulting from its use.
