What is "GWx2"?

I suggest you just change the .exe file with any reg-editor instead of using that silly program... never worked for me either.

are you running vista? if so, then gwx2 does 'not' work on it. other than that, gwx2 runs perfectly fine with xp and other OS

GWx2 works for me with no problems at all and has done so for many months.

GWx2 is a program that allows you to run two instances of Guild Wars at the same time. Very useful if you have 2 accounts and wish to trade between them.

The basic principle is having two folders, e.g. GW1 and GW2; GW1 having the original Guild Wars installation and GW2 having a copy of GW.exe, GW.dat and the GWx2 executable. The only downside (that confuses a lot of people) is that you frequently have to replace the gw.exe file in the GW2 folder, pretty much after every update. Apart from that, it's pretty straightforward.

@OP, if everything on your system is as I've stated, you'll need to post more info - I can only assume you've made some small mistake during installation.

Looks like its running just perfectly to me on Vista.

OP

1st do you have 2 folders of GW on your computer?
2nd did you set the paths to both .exe properly? Sometimes you can accidently set both to the same path.

If that is all fine then uninstall GWx2 and reinstall it. just remember to have your second folder name something like Guild Warz and Guild Wars is how my 2 folders are set up. Then just remember to copy and paste the GW.exe and Gw.Dat files to the second folder after every update.

Yup, what Manitoba said. I also run GWx2 on Vista - no problems at all

(Thus far, I've never needed to update the second .dat, just the .exe - GWx2 seems to update the secondary .dat by itself?)

Technically you dont have to update the .dat file too but you'll end up D/L if you zone. Just a little faster if you do both at the same time so both are fully updated.

NP glad I could help.

I've never used this before... looks pretty useful if you create a new character and you want to run them somewhere your main char has already been or you could even use the main char to powerlevel your secondary char...

Snograt · Mar 12, 2008, 04:43 PM // 16:43

Hehe - I would never dream of doing something like that!

Maverick2201 · Mar 12, 2008, 04:59 PM // 16:59

I wouldn't see whats wrong with doing that. Its somewhat bypassing the rules but its no worse than paying someone to do it for you and they don't really discourage that...
