Terminal Services honestly isn't much better (if at all) than VNC.


they both do the same thing for the most part. I don't know if Terminal Services would perform any better, not to meantion, it isn't free.

See I know other games had MUD clients and such, I would love that ability. I think with all the current tech it could easily be done. They already made AC2D at one point.

AC2D was a complete AC Client remake, and was quickly abandoned... for reasons I'm sure you can imagine.

aside for 2 clients at one time on w2k server and 3 on w2k3 server and one on xp you are right it isnt free.

I've used Tight VNC for control of single instances of AC machines that are both on my local network and from remote via a T1 or Hotel connection. I mainly do it when I am in Las Vegas for 2 weeks and want to keep the buff bot up for the guild. It works, but using VNC (or anything ... I've even tried Citrix) is slow because of all the graphics updates, but it does work enough for me to maintain a buff bot.

What's wrong with AC DualClient or whatever it's called. Maybe it's not remote but you could set up two trade bots on one computer and use another one for a trade bot and your main account to play on. Maybe I'm missing the point. I don't know. Maybe it wouldn't be to hard to make it remote. *shrug*

Any other suggestions as to why we could not make it work?


How about a mudd client?


Would be very good.

42" Plasma, Quad Splitter, KVM switch, Multi-tap video cards on three computers.


1A goes to quadrant Upper Left

2A goes to quadrant Lower Left

3A goes to quadrant Upper Right

KVM Video Out goes to Lower Right


1B - 3B are KVM switch inputs.


You could monitor all three sources at the same time, while playing/trading or ACMing via whatever is selected as the source with your KVM switch. This works in theory. It would be beneficial to get three 3 + 1 quad box, with three minis on the left hand side and a large image on the right. Lend me $8,000 and I'll get back to you.

Why not just use 4 ancient monitors from the 90s?
