Like the title says I am wondering if I can have 2 different MapleStories on my comp. I might aswell be direct ( idk if I can get banned for this ) I enjoy both the real MS and Pizza Slices. Could I have both if I sent them to different folders? I haven't tried anything yet so I wanted to know before I waste an hour trying to figure out something. Thanks. I am not advertising any PS on this post.

So it's possible?

Yes, you can still have both as long as they are in different folders, however, you might not be able to run them both at the same time without the use of a third-party program. Also, the GMs and creators of Maplestory would much rather go after the creators of the You-Know-What than the players. I must advise you though,playing a You-Know-What and actual Maplestory at the same time could pose a risk for your account(s).

I just want them both so I can enjoy them. I don't want to run them at the same time. But thanks for the input.

I don't mean literally at the same time like running them both at the same time, I mean if you play both. Most You-Know-What have hidden viruses and such that can harm your computer. Keyloggers are also very common, and if you use the same login info, you just risked you account info being stolen by the person who made the You-Know-What.

Assuming you have the original 7.2 (latest) and check out ones for v6.0 and such. when you go to install choose a different installation destination. (different folder name/different hard drive) and you will have two seperate shortcuts on the Desktop. Its as simple as that. Its good for when you want to alternate if you get bored

If you have Windows XP, you can make two users and open one maplestory window in each. But, you said on one computer account. Yes, you can. These are the following programs that I know of which can accomplish this. -CrazyMulti (Although every version that I've found has a keylogger, but it works) -VMware Workstation -Windows XP ( lol )

using windows vista, all you do is hit the 'Windows' button on ur keyboard, and L at the same time. That brings up switch user option, log onto Another ADMIN account and find the maple story folder. Double click .exe icon and your on your way. Note: Some people for whatever reason can not do this, i have no idea why, but i can log onto 3 or more accounts simultainiously (spell check?) Good luck

People- you're not understanding his question. He doesn't want to RUN two MapleStorys at once, he just wants to HAVE two installed on the same computer. The answer is yes, it's possible. I used to do this with both Maple Global and MSEA. When you download and install the game(s), the installer program will ask you where you want to store the game's files on your computer, and will give you a suggested "default" location, normally C:/Nexon/Maplestory but you can CHANGE that to anything you want. What I did was to install GMS into C:/Nexon/MapleGlobal and install MSEA into C:/Nexon/MSEA That stored each version into its own folder and it worked just fine. I'd run whatever version I wanted to play at the time and it would run from its own respective folder. This should work for ANY two different versions of the game.

(slightly off topic) You can run combat arms and maple at the same time o.o
