I have two accounts and they both use different video settings, like screen resolution and currently I have to have two wow folders for each account. There is a way to use only one wow folder for two different settings. Can someone show me how to do that? Something about making a shortcut on the wow.exe for the 2nd account and going into properties and editing something? I forgot, anyone know?
I don't think you can, once you open 2 clients then you can adjust the settings individually to your needs.
Create a second Config.wtf file with your secondary settings then you can just rename the one you don't want to use before launching WoW.
No you cannot. I was changing settings each time i loaded wow depending what i was doing. If you got the HD space just copy and paste it somewhere else and use one for botting and one for regular play.
So I was thinking about what you were asking, and came up with this. OS Support: Vista+ .NET: 4.0 Instructions: Extract and run. VirusTotal.com Scan Details: This will symlink all your files and folders to save you having to copy 30+ GiB, letting you have separate WTF (config), Logs and Errors folders. For each instance you create the folder will be around 4 KiB. For safety I didn't want to symlink the Cache folder so it will be recreated for each instance when you run WoW. Make sure when you apply patches, update addons etc it is your main WoW folder you update. Only tested on Windows 7 64-bit so use at your own risk.
I use VMWare so that's how I have diff. configurations for everything =/. Very secure to do it that way too! Imagine never having your main machine technically never touch the internet and if anything fishy goes on on one of your virtual boxes alls you gotta do is click "delete" . My main box has never had a virus (thanks to the virtual box downloading music, etc). Plus I could always password the image and hide the pr0n from the wife .
