Me and my brother have always shared a Minecraft account, and we recently got a new laptop and want to play on a LAN world together.

Sorry, but you can't, because since you are on the same account you can not see each other. You need to get another account in order to play with each other.

  • Some people have managed to do it, but it was on an older launcher. Is there a way to do it on the new one/ – Turk Apr 09 '15 at 19:15
  • I've seen some people do it but it was on an older launcher. Has anyone figured out away to do it on the new 1.8 launcher? Thanks for the help anyway. – Turk Apr 09 '15 at 19:16
  • Setting the compatibilitymode to "Windows XP(service pack 2)" forces the old launcher to be activated. See also https://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/374954/how-do-i-change-my-minecraft-displayname – Joachim May 31 '21 at 18:07
