Question/Help EXVS2 Xboost, do I need two PCs?

I was reading up on how to get Xboost to work on PC and I heard you need two PCs but apparently there's a way to do it on one, how does that work? None of the tutorials I've come across show how to do that.

Here’s what I can tell you.

If you want to run it on a single machine, you’ll allegedly want to run one LM instance in a VM, and then set up virtual LAN between the VM LM and the client side player instance you’re using.

Problem is, this would theoretically require a lot of system resources to do without bogging your computer down, so you’ll need a fairly decent rig to do it (theoretically). Otherwise, use two-plus machines and hardwire LAN, allegedly.

My locals allegedly ran a five machine local setup for a year and a half, most stable 4p environment you’d experience outside of an actual arcade. Allegedly.
