Multiple Sessions on One Computer

[Lionofthewarriors]

How do you run multiple diablo sessions on one computer? Thank you!

Look around, plenty of guides out there.
I don't know of this one still works, but go into your d3 folder, right click the .exe, click properties, and add -launch at the end of it

One way there also works

CMD

Your file location:
(Mine is this)
"D:\Diablo III\Diablo III.exe" -launch

The main and easiest method seems to be to copy your D3 install, and then make a shortcut to D3.exe. Make sure to add "-launch" at the end of the shortcut. Copy the install for as many clients as you require.

I will say the cmd way is better you dont have to copy game or anything

I'm sorry for the dumb question, but could someone explain the CMD way to me or point me in the direction on where I can find it? Thank you!

1 - copy your d3 folder into d3-2 or something similar
2 - find diablo III.exe inside this new folder and create a shrotcut to it on your desktop
3. add -launch after exe inside the target field of your new shortcut.

So lets say your new (copied) folder is in Diablo III - 2 folder (C:\Diablo III - 2), your new shortcut should have the following in its target field (right click/properties)
"C:\Diablo III - 2\Diablo III.exe" -launch

Thats all you need.

Thank you guys, got it to work. I'll really test it once the servers come back up

Are you sure this can work to run multiple copies of D3 with just one installation folder? It seems functionally identical to creating a shortcut with the -launch option...
