Default Running 2 RO's from one computer

I currently have 2 RO's installed and I can get into the game with both but it is very slow and notchy. Has anyone else worked on getting 2 RO's running on one computer at a decent speed in Linux? It looks like it is running on separate processors (i7 920 here) and the video card should be able to handle 2 RO's (GTX 460 1024M ram OC'd). Would be very nice to exp and have my own buffer during slow gaming times .

It will require either lowest settings on both instances, or a wery powerful pc.

Search function is your virtual friend.
I have i5 and gtx 460 and can run 2 clients on max settings. However, for more pleasant gaming, you should just decrease gfx settings to minimum and it will be fine.
If you have a lot of RAM, you can even copy Regnum in RAM, and speed it up drastically. But do not forget once you finish playing, to copy it back from RAM, to save any changes you might made during playing.

The computer has 12G ram so that shouldn't be much of an issue on Gentoo. I will try lowering the graphics settings to see if it helps. I remember that post that I wrote a while ago. I don't remember it getting that much action.

I solved the problem by taking the Anisotropic Filtering and Antialiasing down and switching to windowed mode. I am now able to play both without a problem. Now I am just going to be upset when the power supply for my windows box comes back and I have to move the second monitor back to Windows.

I can run 4+ RO windows at 800x600 (pipeline mode) windowed with no issues.
Then again I have a super computer too.

Don't do this, multiclienting is considered cheating and there are mechanisms to try and stop it from occuring (they don't always work).

People use it to heal themselves while grinding, avoid going back to merchant to sell, etc.

They seems allow to do this, we can do it since over 2 years now.
Like I said in the past, it is easy to check if there is already a processus currently run on the same computer, if they would not allow this, they would do this check point.
Many players using two account for grinder and/or perso conjuing at forts.
To keep ressources and less processor usage you can reduce resolution and use window mode (As example, your conju regnum window at 800x600 and the other window at 1024x768 etc... Multiple screen mode help too...)

The Linux client does perform this check and has for years. If it's not anymore then its a bug.
