Hi, I have searched the forums for this, but despite vaguely remembering seeing it before, I can't find the answer..
I've just opened up a second acount, and was wondering how I can run two copies of the client at once, so I can trade between my two people..
I vaguely remember it having something to do with modifying a line of text to say:
"Allow Multiple Instances = True"
But I can't find this line in any of the files anywhere!
Can anyone help? My Mon-Cal must have a house!!!

Create a file in your SWG directory called "user.cfg" and enter the following:
[SwgClient]
allowMultipleInstances=true
allowMultipleInstances=true
Exit and save. Now you can start one game, minimize and start another. This can cause A LOT of lag for you though, so you may want to have one character in 1st person mode and looking at the floor. =)

Plain text, then set the file as read only when you are done.

Only bad part is you'll get some lag if you dont have enough memory and it spikes when you close down the second client
