Windows
- Make a new shortcut to the SL exe file.
- Then in that shortcut go to properties.
- Then in the properties find the Target box.
- It will say something like "C:\Program Files\SecondLife\SecondLife.exe"
- Just after the last " in that box put this in. -multiple
- So it reads like this "C:\Program Files\SecondLife\SecondLife.exe" -multiple
That lets you open as many as your computer can handle.
(You can only have one login at a time to an account. So you'll need a second account for the second SL client you have open. Etc. Max is 5 per household.)
Mac OS X
- Select the "newview" executable
- Open the "get info" dialog
- Navigate to the "Arguments" tab
- Add "-multiple" to "Arguments to be passed on launch".
