Default Two Copies of Guild Wars

Hey guys, not sure whether this is the appropriate section for this, however.

I just found a tutorial here which depicts the process involved in order to run two copies of GW simultaneously on one machine.

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/content...ars-id1837.php

I'm somewhat confused, it gives a detailed description as to how, yet at the end of the tutorial, there's a link to a program called "GW 2 loader" - I'm not sure whether this program will load two copies of GW for me without having to use a hex editor etc.

Clarification?

Also, is there an easier way to do this?

Thanks.

2 different possibilities, hex editing or the program... I'd say the hex editing cause the program never worked for me but yeah ;P

Ugh it's easy.

Download GWx2 to your Desktop. Unzip or whatever.

Now copy the GW.dat and GW.exe (copy NOT Cut) and paste them both into the same folder as gw x 2 (On your desktop)

Now load it, and for Primary, select the one in your Program Files Folder. And for Secondary select the one in the gwx2 Folder, leave parameters blank (for ease) and then hit "Run".

Then log-in on your two accounts on each client.

Any questions just ask.

How do you set the file as the primary or secondary program?

When you start GWx2 for the first time, it asks you the location of the primary and secondary executables.

If you buy additional copies of Guild Wars, can you combine the accounts? Sunrazor The Riverside Inn 15 Jul 19, 2005 07:22 AM // 07:22
