The guest key is tied to your specific computer identification, it cannot be changed easily.

Is it what?

Seriously though, why are you interested in doing this in the first place?

It's based on the hardware configuration of your machine. Beyond that, I don't feel like this is something that should be discussed openly on the forums because describing the process of changing your computer_id assists people in bypassing sticky bans.

We'll leave this one at: If you need to do this, odds are you shouldn't have done whatever it is you did that caused you to want to change this.

Use a different PC, there...now you have a different guest key...other than that...you can't really do anything.

There shouldn't really be any reason to want to change it, unless you play as guest a lot, upgraded your PC, with a new video card, etc... and now you "lost" your character basically because your guest key changed.

In the other scenario, it's always best to simply use a normal BYOND key, and having signed up and login to that to play than worry about potentially losing your progress.
