I just tried it on my system (didn't know you could do that, although I'll probably stick with using my laptop for my 2nd. account). It ran ok in Anchorhead at ~20fps while a raid was going on.


My system:


AMD Athlon64 3200+, 1GB PC3200 RAM, GeforceFX 5900 Ultra 256MB, 200Gb Maxtor 7200RPM 8MB Cache Hard Drive, WinXP Pro,Cable internet access.

What directory does the user.cfg file go in?

I am sure you will get the post soon, but SWG officially does not support this. Usually an offical will comment on these posts saying that the CSRs will not be able to help you if there is a problem.

And you know what I find really strange about that last comment is that when I asked a CSR they told me they didn't know but I shouldget in touch with Tech Support.


I'd been crashing a lot when starting my second client but soon figured out that if i leave the first one at server select then the second one has a much higher success rate of loading (didn't need tech help afer all ).


And sure they don't support it because of all the different variables like machine components and setup and driver versions etc etc... but there is no harm in asking the basic questions like "where do I put the .cfg file".

I had to kill the SWG_setup.exe just after I hit play on the second account in the taskmanager for the 2 session to run properly
