Thanks.

absolutely

On the primary computer you can run as 127.0.0.1 for bccmd connect but the other computers you would want to connect to that computer's local ip address

example /bccmd connect 192.168.1.3

If you need help seeing what your local ip address is you can press windows key then type CMD and press enter --- you will have a command prompt and you can type ipconfig and press enter

and you will see something like this



so on my pc#2 I would do /bccmd connect 192.168.1.3

I've used EQBC to connect two computers that were located in two separate countries. It's a thing of beauty.

Try eqbc2, it's in the same folder and imo, better. I run my bc on a separate machine that has only a vendor account running on it and still would need to restart it after hours of gameplay because it would lag out or the clients would just stop entirely. eqbc2 I have running on that machine for weeks with no issues.

Also, if you're running Kiss, try editing your ini files:

EQBCOn=1

That allows kiss to broadcast certain messages and makes watching the other toons a bit easier.

I have the exact same experience and using eqbcs2 fixed it
