Project Reality Forums

The PR:Z Open Beta Week will start on the 1st of February and end on the 8th of February. The server will be available 24/7 but you will only be able to play the minimod from 18h30 to 02h30 PR-Time as it requires an admin to be present and activate the loot spawns.

The PRZ Open Beta Week is now Over. Keep an eye on our moddb page for the next one.

You can find more information about this minimod on its Moddb Page where you should take your time to read the Survival "Game-mode" Set of Rules as well as the Frequently Asked Questions.

You can also check our main thread on the PR Forum Modding Section, it has plenty of information and feedback related to past events. Including a few videos of both Survival Games and PR:Z.

The download link will be posted here this Saturday, with clear instructions on how to install the minimod using our Control Panel and also how to install it manually (for the ones with screwed-up OS permissions).

Download the PR:Z Control Panel and place it inside your battlefield2/mods/pr folder. Unzip it and run the PRZControlPanel as ADMIN to be able to download and install the minimod.

(You might get a request to update your .NetFramework if your version is older than 4.0. The CP won't work without it. If the CP shows an "Uninstall" option it means you have a old version of the minimod. Click Uninstall, it should remove it for you.)

IF you have a older version of the minimod, please update it to v0.0.6.3.

IF the above installation process does not work, you have two other options:
- Downloading the minimod content (Link provided upon request), changing the name of the zip file to minimodPrZ.zip and dragging it into the CP. It should ask you if you want to install the minimod.
- The other option is unzipping it inside the PR folder, all files/folders should go into their correct place automatically. If you can't unzip it inside, do it outside and drag everything into the PR folder. Careful not to drag it into other folders inside the PR folder! In either case, you will always need the CP inside the PR folder to run it and enable/disable the minimod

Download the PR:Z Minimod, Enable it & come give it a try! Keep in mind that this is a BETA, meaning that it is still WIP and might contain bugs. Server Loot will only be spawned at 18h30 PR Time when the Open Beta starts. So if you join the server sooner or on other hours than the ones on this thread, there wont be any weapons!

DO NOT FORGET TO DISABLE THE MINIMOD BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO PLAY NORMAL PR!!!

This minimod does not alter your original PR so you can continue to play it as long as you disable the minimod in the CP (Similar to how the Anders Sound Mod worked).

The PR:Z server has been kindly provided by the [3dAC] clan which has supported this project from the start. You can find the server by clicking Co-operative and searching within the short list of servers. The server password is PRZ . There will only be 32 slots on the server because it is a 2km map.

If you have any questions, feel free to post them here or on the moddb page. Same applies to feedback on the minimod and it's features.

Hope to see plenty of you as Survivors or Zombies during the Open Beta.

I cannot wait! I've been wanting this for SO long!!! There's been plenty of zombie games, but the PR / BF2 engine is absolutely amazing, especially after 1.0.

I'm eager to give this a shot, especially with no time-zone conversions to screw up like a complete imbecile!

Its going to be interesting hunting players and then paying my penance in zombie kills ;D

Awesome, ill definitely give it a shot.

I really enjoyed the closed betas. Looking forward to rolling with a posse, killing zack

Nice timing, i'm currently watching the season 3 of The Walking Dead.

I'll give it a shot for sure.

Should be a lot of fun! Can't wait!

Too bad Aussies/NZ can't play unless we go in the morning, where we have school/work.

Isn't it like that with every other event unless if it's organized by you?

Which PR-Time would be suitable for you? If it's something doable, I can try and have the server open at that time for a day or two. But if not that many players show up, it's not really worth it in my opinion. You need to have at least 10 players to have some fun.

Ach you are not hardcore enough man. In our tournament team are two Aussies in the recon platoon, they play with us from 1800PRT till 2200PRT or longer - thats a start into the new week

Curry.

cant wait !!!

Hello guys,

In preparation for tomorrow's Open Beta Inauguration, I will be live streaming a bit of PR:Z today @ 18h00 PR-Time on my: Twitch

I will be answering questions for whoever pops up and asks something on chat. Will be explaining some of the unique features of PR:Z and giving away a few tips & secrets

Might even give early access to a viewer or two.

Cheers

Really nice stuff!

Gonna be a nice week

Streamed for about 3h30 hours.

Thanks you to the guys who popped up and interacted with me. Kovarro

Keep an eye on my twitch channel and you might get more sneak peaks during the open beta.

cheers

Is this happening all week?

Edit:

In Polish time this event would be taking place from 1:30 AM to 9:00 AM correct?

Quick questions:

Does PR:Z currently include the bullet penetration system's one-hit kill bug on non-armored areas of player bodies?

Also, is it now possible to stealth past zombies, by crouching or crawling?

from 18h30 to 02h00 PR-Time = 18:30 to 02:00 UCT = 19:30 - 03:00 Poland = 7:30pm - 03am Poland.

The bug has already been removed. It was fixed for the next PR Release and Onil got it already as far as I know

It is possible to sneak past zombies, I think line of sight is the most important factor though, so crouching and crawling does not have that of an effect. you can always try though. But player-controlled-zombies will always come after you

Thanks for answering Nate

Yes it will be happening all week. And you have a clock in the upper right corner of the PR forum so you can check the time difference yourself.

The 1-Hit bug has been fixed on PR:Z.

I don't see the download link anywhere, did i miss something?

Link will be posted 1 hour before the server opens. See first post for details.
