    Yes, according to this you each can be online on your computers with 2 accounts open each. However there is no account sharing. They don't want one person just logging multiple accounts on multiple computers.

    *Example: If you're a family of 3 playing PWI, then you can have 2 accounts for each member of your family. You WILL have to prove this though if we notice any suspicious activity from your household.



    *Example: You (as an individual human being) cannot have 3 accounts active, it doesn't matter if you own 3 or 30 computers.

    I'm pretty sure that this alread was answered considering the above post...

    So now It's fine to modify our client and use dual acc? The GM's are saying that we can only use It for selling purposes, but I see a lot of people with kitting Sacers and others training their low level chars.

    I find easier to level up your apothecary than train a Sacer but oh well... I'm asking this cause If It's ok I want to use another accounts like a Safe.

    um you can do w/e the hell u want with both toons, as long as it's just two toons/accounts w/e..

    "You may only play on two characters at the same time. They can both level up OR one can level up while the other is a vendor alt OR both can be vendor alts. "

    btw wtf's a Sacer?

    No......its still against the ToS to modify files. You don't modify anything to dual log. Go into the PWI folder in your program files and start elementclient.exe twice. Voila, you are now running two clients.

    I'm reading about the rule change that says you can do it. So the question is how do you start multiple instances of the client on one machine?

    Thanks in advance

    But that does not allow you to run two clients it will tell you that this account is already logged in

    Find your 'Perfect World Entertainment' folder > 'Perfect World International' > Element > Element Client.

    And feel free to log as many clients as your pc can handle. The limit of 2 clients per pc is more of a suggestion as it is enforced in no way. Most high lvls with decent pc's run 5-6 clients simultaneously 24/7. Have fun :)

    You may only have 2 accounts per person, regardless of how many computers you own.

    There isn't a viable reason to create an excessive number of accounts, so any suspicious activity from now on will be fully dealt with. We aren't going to punish you for having existing accounts prior to this rule, but you can only be online on two at once at the most.

    *Note: Excessive account creation has been and will continued to be pursued. Provided you did not abuse this before, you should have nothing to worry about.
    If someone has way more than 2 accounts who can we talk to?

    How do you get more than two? The main launcher does one. the laucher exe in the folder does the second. However if you try to use either again it just closes after opening.

    So you have to edit a file somewhere to get the 3rd up and running, which by editing, is bannable.

    lol

    No, I just have a shortcut to elementclient.exe on my desktop. You can open as many clients as your computer will allow. I had 3 up for a couple of minutes last night for trading, and have opened as many as 8 this way for testing. (not all were logged in as I only have 7 accounts)

    Opening 20 clients requires no editing at all. You just need the CPU and ram available to handle it.

    I only use the launcher for when I need to update the client.

    So... you are allowed to interact/trade/etc. using the same computer with two characters...

    Are you allowed to level up both characters at the same time (no third account though)?

    Two characters maximum online at once for any situation.

    Yes... You can have 2 accounts online at the same time each person... It may be on the same pc or on 2 diffirent pc's... You may lvl them at the same time as long as you don't use illegal things like botting programs (ppl might not be happy if you put a useless puppet in the squad though)...

    Oh and when a thread is older then a month it's better to make a new one since this is considered necro... b:cute
