Fenimore Hapmouche Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Yes, that is possible. In Preferences, go to the General tab and check "Allow multiple viewers". Then just start another instance of the viewer and log on your additional avatar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amethyst Jetaime Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 It's possible if you have a powerful enough computer. Some computers just can't handle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alwin Alcott Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 if it's only for being in sl and answer notices or chat...or testing animation/furniture, i'd advise to use the Radegast viewer. Low impact on your system, and even possible to have a limited visual (little) screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GondolaBar Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 It's possible. I have both SL viewer and Firestorm, so I can open two accounts at the same time. However mine is a laptop, so it gets laggy quite often. Best if you use a desktop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just have to set your options to allow more than one running instance of the viewer and then you can run as many accounts simultaniously as you want (or as your computer can handle). I once did this when I went to a ballroom but wasn't willing to put up with some random dance partner. It was quite relaxing. Finally a well dressed, good looking dancepartner who didn't start some chessy conversation. :smileylol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again, my alts usually just find reasons to argue with me. ...Dres (Especially when they've been drinking.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's quite possible to sign on two alternate accounts from the same computer, but you can't sign on the same account again once that account is signed on. Perhaps you remember the exact situation incorrectly. ...Dres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheriColette Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Well no...I remember it quiet clearly. I was sailing and my computer crashed so restarted FS and arrived at home and messaged my partner. He said I was still with him on the boat but anchored and tp (the 2nd) me over.

I was sailing and my computer crashed so restarted FS and arrived at home and messaged my partner. He said I was still with him on the boat but anchored and tp (the 2nd) me over. That kind of thing has happened to me and my friend while sailing. We were chatting. After a while I was wondering why my friend got very silent, not answering to anything what I said. Well, I thought maybe there's been some sudden RL thing the friend had to take care of. After some minutes I got an IM from my friend: Friend: Where are you? Me: What do you mean? I'm with you in the boat. Friend: What! I'm not in the boat. I crashed and logged back in. Now I'm at the place where we started from. Me: You definitely are with me in the boat.Friend: Humm... TP me. Me: Ok, it would be interesting to see two of you here. What happened next was: - My friend's avatar was still sitting near me in the boat. - I TPed my friend. - After a short while I saw my friend's avatar appearing hovering in the air near the boat. - At the same instant my friend's avatar sitting in the boat vanished. - Thus I never saw two of his avatars near me at the same time. This surely was some glitch in the system. When my friend crashed the system gave me no message that he went offline. His avatar was still in my view. When he came online the system gave me no message either that he came back online. How the system saw things and how he saw things, was that he indeed crashed. But for me, the system failed to deliver that information. The friend's avatar sitting in the boat while my friend was offline was just a ghost. I only new what had happened when my friend IMed me.

SirLeighBastard Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 And the answer to the obvious follow up question is "yes". And the answer to the subsequent one is "yes, it still counts as masturbation". ***Call me and I will get straight to the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
