Multiple Accounts on Star Wars: Commander

Quickly create and Use Multiple Accounts on Star Wars: Commander using PC

1.       Create a directory on your C: drive and call it “SWC” (c:\SWC). This is where you were store your profiles and shortcut for the game

2.       Create the SWC shortcut to open the game.

a.       OPEN File Explorer and paste the following in the address bar: “%windir%\explorer.exe shell:::{4234d49b-0245-4df3-b780-3893943456e1}” – Then ENTER.

b.      LOCATE the “Star Wars Commander” icon and RIGHT-CLICK to Create Shortcut. The shortcut will then be placed on your desktop.

c.       COPY the shortcut from your desktop and put it in the C:\SWC folder you created earlier.

3.       COPY your current game profile into the newly created C:\SWC folder. Replace YOURLOCALID with your actual computer user name.

a.       “C:\Users\YOURLOCALID\AppData\Local\Packages\Disney.StarWarsCommander_6rarf9sa4v8jt\LocalState"

b.      Copy the current “playerprefs.dat’ file and move it to the C:\SWC directory.

c.       RENAME this file to in this directory from the old playerprefs.dat to “playerprefs.dat.INGAMENAME” – Your name you use in the game.

4.       DELETE the playerprefs.dat file that you were using in the “C:\Users\YOURLOCALID\AppData\Local\Packages\Disney.StarWarsCommander_6rarf9sa4v8jt\LocalState”. Restart the game and a new playerprefs.dat file will be loaded. You can now make this a new ID. Repeat the process to get as many game IDs as you want to create and manage.

5.       CREATE Batch files that you can start that will bring up your ID and start the game as needed. You can only play one ID at a time, but now you can switch quickly between them.

a.       Open your notepad on the computer and copy this text into notepad. Change the bold items to fit your names.

cd C:\Users\LOCALUSERID\AppData\Local\Packages\Disney.StarWarsCommander_6rarf9sa4v8jt\LocalState"
ren playerprefs.dat playerprefs.old
del playerprefs.old
copy C:\SWC\playerprefs.dat.INGAMEID
ren playerprefs.dat.INGAMEID playerprefs.dat
cd c:\SWC
START SWC.lnk

b.      SAVE this text file as a .BAT file and NOT a .TXT file. I suggest naming this batch file something easy to recognize when you want to change like “MYGAMENAME.bat”

This batch file renames the old playerpres.dat file, replaces it with your newly created game ID and then starts the game.

6.       Open the C:\SWC older and click your MYGAMENAME.bat file to start your profiles and games.
