2 instances in full screen?

[deskflowers]

I can run two characters and alt-tab between them fine but I cannot have them both full screen- is there any way to do that? I can do that in EQ just fine but I can't figure it out here. Playing them in a window would be ok but the screen gets really dark and the resolution isn't as good and screen is a bit distorted. Thanks!

I would suggest using EQwindows, making the resolution on each window your monitors resolution, and alt tabbing. It will seem weird, but you will have two maxed out windows sitting atop of one another. That is probably the best it will get for you.

Thanks for the reply. I have tried to use EQW but when I check the "Use EQW" box on the patcher, it opens EQ and not SoD.

You must point the EQW path to eqgame.exe and not everqueѕt.exe

That did it, thanks so much!

Also, you're going to encounter keyboard-bug problems eventually if you are alt-tabbing between toons. If you use EQW on both, you can switch instances with ctrl-alt-S and avoid the KB Bug. It takes some getting used to, but you'll get sick of re-logging your char eventually.
