daoc running twice on same pc

[Moriath]

I made a copy of my daoc folder so i have it twice on my pc and then run both but i cant get them to run with different settings i tried paths.dat file with users/Moriath/Roaming/Electronic Arts/ Dark Age Of Camelot/LOTM/ for one and added a 2 at the end of camelot for a second instance .. but it doesnt like it

I want to run them at different rezz;s as one monitor is 1680 and the other is 1900

Anyone done thins ?

Cheers

I think you might find they run with setting in the user folder - are you running vista?

 

[Moriath]

windows 7 so yeah vista +

I know the settings are in the user folder in the path above its trying to get each copy to run against a different one ... thats the hard bit i cant crack

I also wondered about this since I use fullres for main char and a smaller window for buffer

Here's the solution:
How can I have different interface settings using two instances of the same game client? .: Dark Age of Camelot Knowledgebase

 

[Moriath]

i did that created two different paths.dat files with name1 in first and name2 in second and still wont keep the settings different for each

 

[Moriath]

However i tried a variation and if you have paths.dat in one and nothing in the other it seems to work

Thanks for the lead

It filters out numbers, try daocone and daoctwo or something

 

[Moriath]
