aeabotts Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 I have BF2142 on an XP machine. I had been playing the game under one account. When I created a couple other accounts, I'll call them A and B, I would get kicked by PB. I uninstalled the game and reinstalled it while logged into account A. I could then log in and play under account A. If I log into account B I get kicked. So, is it possible to set up BF2142/PB to work whether I log into account A or B? Thanks. Quote
RodeoBob Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 Does both A and B have the same priveledges on the computer? Quote
aeabotts Posted February 4, 2007 Author Posted February 4, 2007 Yes, both accounts are setup the same. Both are admin accounts. Quote
MaydaX Posted February 4, 2007 Posted February 4, 2007 Yes it does support multi-users (shares the same cdkey) but settings are saved in the My Documents folder Quote
aeabotts Posted February 4, 2007 Author Posted February 4, 2007 Some more info - I tried another test. I created a brand new Windows admin account. When I logged in and tried 2142 again, I got kicked. I appears that PB is setting up some config files or registry entries that only allow it to run from one account, the first one used. Has anyone successfully run 2142/PB or anyother game/PB from different Window User accounts? Quote
