Hello,
I am setting up a game and am new-ish to Fantasy grounds. I have an ultimate license but also have a free demo account under a different username. I would like to host a game on my pc and also login with the free demo using the alternate username so that I can test what my players will see as we move through the adventure.

Is this possible? or do I need to have two computers running?

Thanks for the help, apologies if this was posted somewhere.

You don't need a secondary account to connect to yourself. You just need to run Fantasy Grounds twice and connect to localhost on the second instance. This second connection will show what it looks from the player's perspective.
