Opening multiple LoL-Ingame Clients in a VM

[yuri624]

Heya,

I would like to open multiple game clients of LoL in a VM.
I start the game clients with the following C# code (from Legendary Client)

 Spoiler

            var p = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
            p.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = GameDirectory;
            p.StartInfo.FileName = Path.Combine(GameDirectory, "League of Legends.exe");
            p.StartInfo.Arguments = "\"8394\" \"LoLLauncher.exe\" \"" + "" + "\" \"" +
                CurrentGame.ServerIp + " " +
                CurrentGame.ServerPort + " " +
                CurrentGame.EncryptionKey + " " +
                CurrentGame.SummonerId + "\"";
            p.Start();

Problem is:
- If I start 6 clients with that on my main machine it works just fine. They all load up and end up ingame
- If I do the same in my VM, they will all go in the loading screen and bug-splat out before they finish loading (around 70-90% loading)
- Oddly enough, if I let only 2-3 Clients load in the VM, they go through without problems.

The VM runs Tiny7 and has 3GB RAM (more than enough, considering each LoL-Client takes up 400-500MB maximum, so there is plenty of RAM extra).

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.

Seems like a video issue. Ive been experimenting to and I dont have a problem with starting 5 or 6 bots in 1 vm.

Are you also sure you installed vmware tools for the accelerated video option?

Yea, I've got VMWare Tools installed. I took one of my normal bot VMs and gave it 3,5GB RAM, increased the page file to 2GB for testing purposes. I tried stopping all other VMs just in case. No way for me to start more than 3 game instances at a time (only a problem in VM, on the host 6 - and probably more - are no problem at all).
No idea what I could have overlooked.

Do you use Tiny7 or a normal Win7? (or XP?)
I might try with another Windows version if you're not using Tiny7, did not do that yet.

tiny7 unattended. How exactly are you launching all the games. Do you have them fully open or windowed?
