GR beta question

I downloaded the entire thing last night. It isn't the same thing as the test client. Different splash screen even.


Badging in a PvP zone?

If you are treasure hunting on a battlefield wearing an enemy uniform, there is a high probability that you will be attacked.

the Slpasher screen difference is due to the tag -uiskin 2 in the short cut path (which works on the test client by the way). The strongest indication that you need the new download is that it will take you to different servers then the test client

My computer doesn't want to download the 3.7 gig file without corrupting within 5 minutes of starting the download and suddenly shutting off. The only way I'm gonna be able to get in is via the test server. Hoping that 600-something mb patch I downloaded on there is what I think it is. If not, well, Hope everyone has fun in Praetoria.

I managed to do it with the test method, just appending -beta instead of -test to the command line. Client loads up fine and takes me to server select screen. So far so good.

So if I were to right-click the Test Server icon and change the "-test" to "-beta", will that work? I have tried downloaded the beta client a few times now and each time I keep getting an error.

Just follow the Test Server installation instructions, but use '-beta' instead of '-test'.

Well shucks, I wish I had known that earlier. I let it run last night while I was sleeping so no time was really lost on my part.

if you use -beta, it will want to create a new folder "C:/Program Files/COHBeta". After it creates the folder, just stop the updater, copy->paste the test folder into the beta folder. Then restart the -Beta shortcut



Your character does not have capped defense. Depending on your AT the cap is between 175% - 225%. Your defense is not teal in the combat window, it can go higher. STOP SAYING IT IS CAPPED! The correct term is Soft Cap.
I enjoy playing in Mids. I specialize in Melee Characters, other AT's usually bore me.

For the directions referred to, go to search, and search for the tags "test server" and "install"

Oh. I didn't know or I didn't remember that. That is worthy.

We also have the new mod12.

Guys I think GR-Beta stuff belongs on the Closed Beta forums.

Talking about Closed Beta issues on the Open forums is a no-no that can (will) get this thread deleted, and *could* lead to you getting kicked from the Beta and never invited to any others.

In before the Delete!
