it could possibly work by creating a copy of ryzom in a different folder and running that but don't quote me on it :p

If everything fails you can try to use vmware to run 2 copies at once, wich means installing windows twice and run both copies in a seperate windows environment.

you would alt-tab to the next virtual machine.

Running it like that can be a serious load on your system tho.

can think of some reasons,

* 2 accounts 1 pc
- dig/care
- heal/nuke
- extra storage space
- Roleplay characters ?
* to play on test and live and see if you can replicate a certain behavoir on test and live.

Well, not necessarily just heal/nuke, but having a healer so that i can level any skill i want without having to look for several days for a team is handy :)
Dig/care is another nice thing, but more of a minor issue. Same with extra storage space.

The other points, like the test server thing, is not why i want to run 2 accounts at once.

If same account wont even run two live.

Coz during crashes, when you log back in, it tells you "..have now been disconnected from game and can log in" or something....
