A second player account

Postby tinnitus » Mon Jan 28, 2019 7:48 pm

Another account is all that I need other than a second email and I can play on the same rig right?. With count two I launch the launcher logging in with my new details is that it.

Yeah.

I also found a trick.
Go into the install folder for the launcher and make a copy of the EDlaunch.exe and for simplicity rename it EDlaunch - nick.exe create a second desktop shortcut to this new launcher and login in to the second account.

Since it seems the launcher filename is used in the saved login info this way you can launch either account at ease. Only need to login properly the first time.

Rule 1: Pillage. Then burn.
Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.

Awesome tip Tor as usual your a helpful chap. Thinking I may do it even with thousands of E:D game play hours I am not going to get that new car feeling but may as well have a go. Thanks again :)
