Dual Account Access

Hey, a quick question.

I have 2 accounts and I want to use the heroes from one account in combination with the other. All I need to do is log in, set up the heroes then zone into the area I want to vanq then log the 2nd account out (giving me 6 heroes).

However, I can't seem to open up a second guild wars program whilst the first is still running. Is there a way to do this? Ive seen people with two accounts open on the same screen before. Could someone explain?

Thanks,

Will

A quick google search directed me to: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/content...ars-id1837.php

I haven't read all that's written there.. but I assume it works since it's already on guru.

There's a program called GWx2 which most people use, or it is possible to edit the registry values I believe. It's probably just easier to use the program though.
This is a fairly comprehensive guide - http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...hp?t=10301247&


Good luck!

thanks guys. I'll give it a go.

Remember of course if you go through any zones when its just you and 6 heros, that you will lose the three from the other account (Just in case you were looking at a long Proph vanq run through Kryta etc).

I have been researching this. You must be careful though cause you can mess up the registry and then nothing will work.

Simple solution is to backup the registry before you mess with anything. And unless you screw with other stuff in the registry, the only thing it should mess up is GW.

Which is completely fixable.

I do this all the time but I use 2 computers (my desktop and my laptop). Its also nice when I have to "run myself" somewhere.

I'm still waiting for 7 heroes to be added, but I'm more and more tempted to buy a 2nd account for this reason.

I'll tell you if I do because you can be sure that the 7 heroes update will be the next day
