Capable of Running Two Clients on One PC?

In no way am I a botter, but my room mate and I agreed to play his character for him while he was at work and class. Is there any way to run two clients on one PC, in windowed mode? I would much rather do this instead of using both computer side by side. Any info would help, thanks.

In LotRO I had the game installed twice on the same computer, that was the only way I could do it. I pl'ed my other toons with a buddies account, lol.

I even went so far as to hook up another monitor so I didn't have to ALT+Tab and stuff.

Im sure if you made two diffrent folders both with the files and different .exes you could. But he would rather have someone level his character instead of enjoying the game his self?

 

So much for games being fun...

You don't even have to install it twice. Just copy the folder, name it something diffrent, make the a shortcut to the new launcher and name it like War #2.

I totally agree with you, as does he. Its just he knows that I will outlevel the crap out of him. He is not as hardcore as I am, and we are taking periodic breaks at the PVP zone level caps to experiment with those. I love to enjoy the game but for him its more of enjoying with while playing it with me rather than having to play alone.

Okay that makes more sense, instead of him getting off and you power leveling him or him catching up, you guys can just jump right into action together.
