			==Testing with multiple clients==
			Creators commonly test worlds and avatars by running multiple VRChat clients simultaneously, each logged into a different account. This is an allowed practice among world and avatar creators.

			To launch a second VRChat client on a separate account, create a shortcut to the VRChat executable (for example, located at <code>steamapps\common\VRChat\VRChat.exe</code>) and add the <code>--profile=2</code> [[Launch Options\|launch option]]. The <code>--profile</code> flag stores credentials separately, so each profile only requires logging in once. Common launch options for a testing client include:

			<code>--no-vr --profile=2 --enable-debug-gui --enable-sdk-log-levels --enable-udon-debug-logging</code>

			Building a world with 0 clients in the SDK build panel causes any already-running test clients to reload the world without launching a new client.

			When testing avatar visual consistency (such as Bounds or Anchor Override changes), checking with a second account is more reliable than checking in a mirror, because the local mirror view may differ from what other players see.
