Multiple Diablo Windows?

Multiple Diablo Windows?

Ok, here's the thing, whenever I need a char rushing there's nobody there to do it, whenever I need a transfer, none of my friends will do it. So I'm fed up I need to know HOW to run 2 Diablo windows. I'm aware I need 2 Cd keys of both classic and LoD but if someone could give me a guide as to HOW to run 2 windows and if someone could also tell me how I could get my hands on another set of CD Keys... I know this Cd Key talk is sort of dodgy so if this is against the rules I'll edit it, thank you for your time ^^

P.S URL's or guides by yourselves would be nice.

Forgive my stupidity for overlooking that, I didn't see it, thank you very much.

Edit: that link explains it better than what I wrote.

Holy... That's confusing lol, would somebody be able to tell me where I could get me hands on another set of CD Keys I mean downloading them sounds a bit dodgy and unsafe so... Any suggestions? I'm not going to buy another copy of D2 by the way.

 

[ispankpigeons]

buying another copy is the only legal way.

unless you have a friend who no longer plays and he'll let you use his.

D2 doesn't cost much, and it's worth it buying a new set just not to lose stuff muling.

Do you think anybody on these forums (That no longer plays) Would have spare CD Keys? Not being selfish or anything just that, I'll just be hounest my family is poor and Internet is like the only luxery apart form my bike :X Laugh it up if you want but meh... Diablo II was a birthday present from soneone... I sort of feel bad for aksing for CD Keys but I guess it's the only way :X For me anyway... Dam my poor family lol.

Are you able to log into the same account using two D2 windows?

Once in a great while someone who is quitting drops by and gives their CD keys away, but I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you - once or twice a year is about the best you can hope for.

Anyway, it's obnoxious when people run around the forum asking for free CD keys, so please don't be one of those guys. :wink3:

In my post I did say I feel bad asking for free CD Keys lol and yeah I'm not getting my hopes up, I'll ask my friends if they still have their old Cd Keys...

yes, however you cannot be in chat with two chars from the same account at the same time. "1 inside a game + 1 in chat" and "2 inside a game" is ok.

And if you try to log into the same game with the the same character, you'll get a Failed to Join Game message.
