    Great sale again - question on ending up with 2 licenses

    At friggin $10 I was thinking of getting a second license. I already have an Ultimate and I use a second copy on another PC to text my extensions and adventure modules I work on. I kind of prefer not using my non license demo if I can just get another this inexpensive. I picked up my second Ultimate (meaning had prior FGC one) during the Kickstarter with all the nice extras you guys gave us backers. So another $19 is barely a top

    So, how would I do this? I need to create a second account on the forum for the login? I forgot what I needed to make my first one years ago. Was it just an email (I already use several) or phone or?

    The only downside I see is not have the tokens and what have you that came free with FGU KS (and perhaps a Humble Bundle I did once) other than that I wouldn’t need all the rulesets or modules I’ve bought since I’d be using it to connect to my Ultimate license and never a a DM.

    You can just buy another license using your normal account. Licenses aren't tied to your account; only DLC is. So you can have multiple licenses.
    If there is something that you would like to see in Fantasy Grounds that isn't currently part of the software or if there is something you think would improve a ruleset then add your idea here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featu...rerequests.php

    Question, are you connecting to a session on your main game to test, or just using it as a vanilla test environment? Because you can use the same license key on multiple systems for that, they just can't connect to the same game session.

    Trying to host a game on my ultimate. Then connect to it from one of the other PCs (Linux or Mac technically as I run only one native Windows PC in my office)

    I did so by using my normal “account” but removing my ult key from the app.


    I’d prefer connecting with a different “name” in the sense that then I could still do that (new license) and do a third with the demo license connection.

    I understand I could do that by creating another forum account for the demo license. But figure I can keep the demo using my account and new “name” (ie account) for the actual second license.

    I just wanted to make sure it is a new forum login I needed to register under if I wanted the new license to have its own “name” when connecting to the host FG instance.

    Ok then if I decide I wanted to buy DLC to use on that std license, I would THEN create an account and I could then take that same key and put a diff username on it?

    (And my longer prior post was about wanting to be able to connect with a name other than “Varsuuk” to distinguish should I want to test with multiple “clients” connected)
