Using 2 displays for local play

[Trenloe]

I connected to the localhost and had the second instance on the second monitor but i wasn't able to access anything from my first monitor. I ended up loading the campaign on both instances and running them separately.

I think the final step you're missing here is that the second instance is a player instance and you need to share maps etc. with the player instance - just like you would with other players connected. For example: If you want to have a map appear in the player instance, share it from the GM instance: Right-click within the map/image and select the share option.

Yes in that you can run a second instance on your machine.

One monitor running the GM side, the other monitor (sometimes used flat on the tabletop) running a second instance as a player.
