Possibe to run 2 WoW??

[Niko33]

Would it on anyway be possible to run 2 World of warcraft on the same computer? And still use the same keyboard and mouse and screen??
Wondered to know could be pretty cool

[amrican93]

Nope, WoW Is designed to just have onw of itself up and running....

That means if you try to start 2 WoW'S on the same computer you would get a message like this:

"Unable to run Video Hardware"
"Only one WoW can be running"

Wrong ive had 2x WoW's running many times (boosting my alts through instances with friends accounts). But cant have 2x WoW's on the same account.

How'd you do

I do it alot!


Its pretty easy to do, but imagine running your old WoW with over 2x the lag so you should have a very good computer.

First, I suggest closing out of all windows: definetly nothing that takes up game space, like vent or itunes. You dont need to do this, but it really helps game play.

Start up the first WoW, but dont send your info. Leave it at the first page where you see news. You should be able to set up a second WoW.

If you get the error like american posted, just do it again and it should work. Sometimes i've had to restart.

You cannot play on two accounts at once, you must have two seperate payed accounts. If you try to log onto two, it will simply disconnect you from the first one.

Enjoy! Some good uses of this are using friends accounts to do things like watch your character as hes testing something, for example the /sit /stand macro on fraps if you dont have a friend to prove it. Its also good for running yourself through instances so you can get all the loot.

WEEEEEEEEE have found uot of it by myself!
Im using one of my friends acc's (he dosent play more but he still pey )
I dont lag AT ALL my computer specs are (even when u wow at same time):
2GB ram
3,2 Prossesor So no lagg


Just one more thing
can i be banned for playing to accounts on the same computer at the same time??

Hmm and how in the hell do i take a picture of that there is on my screen (NOT INSIDE WOW)

[Niko33]

It was pretty easy

[amrican93]

lolz, I'll try it

[Liania]

No lag? Lucky! (;

If you press the "PrtScn SysRq" button (same for WoW screenshots!) they will still be taken, just wont tell you that a screenshot was taken. Just paste them in something like paint then upload them somewhere like www.photobucket.com

All Programs < Accessories < Paint

And I'm not really sure about this. Don't use it to farm so they dont think you're some asian farming site. Other than that, like anyways, just dont log onto your friend's account to much with different IPs, because WoW might think that theres a keylogger in his account.

PAAINT FTW! and real men, doenst need a mates account for instances, WE SOLO IT ALL! Arr

[Niko33]

OK :P
Thinks i'll try to send a E-Mail to Blizz OFC not from my Ip ...

[wowpew]

Get a mac
Its even easier there. Just copy WoW and start both games.

[amrican93]

I don't want a mac
