[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPYun1JQb34[/media] Found this video very useful. This definitely works with 1.5 and 1.5_01, I'm sure it should work with all version though.

Such is common knowledge

I can't get it to work. I'm trying it with the portable version, but my friend and I are figuring stuff out.

Or just change the name in minecraft.jar\net\minecraft\client\MinecraftApplet.class

Is this only if you have 2 accounts? Or can you use one because it is over LAN?

[QUOTE=Rocket;29520385]It's for 1 account.[/QUOTE] its to change the name of 1 client, as you can't have more than 1 user named Player, so if u wanted 5 ppl to play on 5 computers, each needs to use the code and each need to set a different name, e.g Player1, Player2 etc.

I just play over hamachi even if we're in the same room. Easier
