How to install the Beta?

Post by Qwertfyu2 »

Hello all,

Apparently downloading, and installing the ISO file isn't as easy as it sounded in the dev blogs as I am having some trouble. Forgive me for my ignorance, but I don't understand the process of downloading, and installing the ISO file for the Beta. I would really like to play, but I am having extreme difficulty in the whole process. Thanks for the help, and please don't be too harsh on my ignorance. Thank you!

either download daemon tools lite and mount the image or you can use winrar or 7zip to extract the files and run the executable.

I followed the link in the description to SlySoft Virtual CloneDrive and downloaded Virtual clone drive

After you installeded that program you can find your .iso file and right-click it and "mount" the file....

This creates a "fake" aka virtual dvd drive that you can auto-run by double clicking (if it doesn't auto-run by itself).... from there it is as simple as installing any other game.

Just be aware that the test servers are all offline... so you currently can't play the game.... The game was lagging and crashing due to a mumble issue as far as I know, and it's currently being fixed.

Don't worry though, it will not override PR 0.981 so you can still install and play the current release version.

I found the problem. I didn't have Utorrent xD PR 1.0 Beta is successfully downloaded, and I'm ready to play. Now I just need to figure out the server passwords...
