This used to be possible but i cant remember how, can someone tell me? i heard something about it being changed and cant remember how i used to do it and with the search function not working i figured this as the best place to post it.

you need to open Notepad and create a file called user.cfg



in this file you need the following lines



[SwgClient]


allowMultipleInstances=true



it is very important that you save this file as a .cfg and NOT a .txt





Perdition - Evil Zabrak poison chucker
Em-aimee - 12pt fishy weaponsmith
Jay-el - Chief Pencilhead of Wrix
Lee-jay - Lesser Pencilhead of Wrix

yeah make sure you buy 2 copies of the game, make 1 character on each account ($15 each a month) on the same server. Follow the user.cfg directions from earlier.

he said to use the win XP Switch User feature, and have 2 Windows XP users logged in at the same time, then i can switch back and forth.

This is horrible! I return to find my new title on the forum is "Jedi". What's up with that? If they wanted to confer that I'm rare and learned, they'd make my title RANGER. and then make it camo colored.
