A Way to run multiple tekkit windows?

[Graziservers]

Is there any way to run more than one tekkit window at a time? would be nice.

[Graziservers]

Anyone?

bump again.

Not really. It's not wise to have two programs using and modifying the same files at the same time. It's the reason why programs can "lock" files so that no other program can alter them while they do their work.

It's for multiplayer, not sure what files would be modified?

You could try running multiple instances on MultiMC.

Yes. You can probably get away with running it from 2 different locations without the launcher.

explain? MultiMC?

It's a program which basically allows you to have multiple instances of Minecraft, so you don't have to remove all the mods and reinstall to change modpack, in almost the exact same way that the Technic Launcher does.

It may be possible to have more than one MultiMC running at a time, because if you put different instances of the same thing, the programs won't be modifying the same files. You'd just have to copy the TekkitSMP folder into instances, I think.

doesn't work. I use a batch file to keep minecraft in my dropbox.

::Tekkit.bat

set appdata=%cd%/tekkit

start TechnicLauncher.exe

::Tekkit2.bat

set appdata=%cd%/tekkit2

start TechnicLauncher.exe

I still get "cannot check launcher version" when I try to run each of these.
