Opening 2 GW windows? - Guild Wars Forums

Fanita · Jul 14, 2009, 07:43 PM // 19:43

Hey people, I own 2 accounts and often need to transfer things between them. I play GW on my desktop computer and when I need to transfer items/gold I pull out my laptop and use it. However, my laptop is slower than Christmas and it makes transferring items very frustrating and time consuming. I know there is a program that allows you to have 2 GW windows open at once, but I know nothing about it. So a few questions:

1) What is the program called?
2) Where do i get it?
3) Is it safe to use?
4) Is it legal to use?
5) Once I get it, how do I use it? I am not good at figuring out how to use things like this on computer, so detailed help is greatly appreciated.

I'm sure there is probably a thread about this already, but as I don't know what the program is called it was difficult to find any threads on it. If there is another thread explaining exactly what I have asked, a link to that thread would be awesome.

Thank you all so much for any help you can provide.

1. There are several. Guild Wars Multi Launch is the newest one, it is open source, and recommended by the tech guys here.
2. http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10373154
3. Yes.
4. Yes. It's also not forbidden by the EULA. Use of multiple clients on the same PC is not supported, however.
5. Information on setup can be found in the thread linked above. It's very easy to use.

Everytime I try to start that program up it just fails to even open with the "failed to initialize" error. I guess I'll just be sticking to two PC's at once for now.

You could always just buy a bunch of machines. Then you could have 8 and a full team of your own never have to worry about the slow one again
