Two windows at once?

[Clarity]

Is there any way to have more than one VMK game open at once, so I can play my main and my mule at the same time? It hasn't worked when I've tried it before.

There are a few ways to do that, I like to use VMK Pal and you can open a lot of windows if you wanted. The previous way i used was using differant web browsers, I would us Internet Explorer, and Firefox. If you dont have 2 browsers there is another way with Internet explorer by hitting a certain key but I dont remember what it is

I use AOL for one and Internet Explorer for another with no problems. Don't know what you are using for going online so I can't tell you what you would need to do. Also what I do when I go on IE is use the direct log in web page. That helps.

Yes there is, but I don't have the other link here at work. Do us both a favor and send me a PM. I'll send you what I call "the mule link" when I am on later this evening.

Just be warned that VMK requires about 1.5GHz of clock speed, so two windows is about 3.0 GHz. Check your system because I do notice more crashes with two online at once. If all you are doing is trading stuff back and forth you should be fine, but I would not recommend being in the host queue on one and playing fireworks on the other. The fireworks will lag even worse than usual, and you will probably crash, thereby losing your place in queue on the other! You might ask me how I know this...

Here's the link; I use it all the time.

You can bookmark this, then open it in either two Explorer windows, or one Explorer window and one Firefox window.

Have you tried CTRL+N if you have a windows?

Well, I do have VMK Pal, I'd been trying VMK Pal window and an IE window at the same time. I tried two VMK Pal windows and it works! But, like DaraAllen said, it's really slow this way, so I'm not going to do it very often.

Thanks for the help everyone!

I use the direct login page:

Use that in two separate browsers. Like others say, your computer has to have enough power to handle two VMKs.

Woo Hoo! Finally got it to work!!! I hope the OP did too!!

I think for this, at least on IE, you need to open two of the sign in pages BEFORE signing anyone in, then sign one at a time. If you open a second log in page after the first is in game, it will cancel the first.

Pal doesn't require that method, don't know if it uses more memory then regular sign in or not.

I use firefox and internet explorer. So..it is much easier.

No, you don't have to open two pages before you log in. I do this all the time. If you go directly from the www.vmk.com page that might not be true, but not going to the direct login page I mentioned.
