Hello! Does anyone have experience dual boxing with a Mac using a Wine and XQuartz setup? When I attempt to run two Ashita boot.exe's, the second one always crashes with a "Failed to bind to listening socket". |

For some reason on wine it crashes trying to open two clients at the same time. The solution i found was to run two wine instances running the same exe. I copied the wine prefix that contains nasomi, deleted the nasomi folder in the new copied prefix and made a symbolic link to the original nasomi folder with all the files. Then I ran the first instance using one prefix, the second instance using the other. You might want to get a program like Lutris (linux only) to manage multiple prefixes, i think for MacOSX its called PlayOnMac. |

Yeah, what they said. For those who want custom patches, you can follow my guide here since: http://vaughanhilts.me/blog/2018/10/27/ ... l-box.html I discovered this as well that it causes crashing if you run two instances in the same `WINESERVER` The tldr; is get two copies and run it this way. I just compiled my own and have a script that logins into either or character, starting the right thing. I installed NasomiXI twice so each character could have their own custom settings as well but there is no need to do this -- you could use one install folder as well as Badios has noted. |

Someone is going to have to bug Nasomi to take a look at it since it's a pretty problem for all the new players coming in. Not sure if it's isolated to macOS or not yet. I can't check since both my chars are past that point... not sure when it was introduced. |

Setting up dual boxing on macOS—whether running multiple MMO clients side-by-side or managing separate game instances across multiple monitors—requires smart window management and efficient resource allocation. Apple silicon chips handle running concurrent game instances remarkably well without thermal throttling, making multi-account gameplay smoother than ever.
