The patch for the test tomorrow is now available. HOWEVER, we have updated the launcher as well. At this time there’s no automatic way for that to update, so you need to download the new version from here:
I’ve updated the original post in this thread to point to the latest launcher version as well.
The previous launcher will keep working as we didn’t really change a whole lot, but there is a new option for an “Alternate” connection type that I may have some people try out tomorrow if they are having issues. So I recommend downloading the new launcher before you start downloading the new patch.
Just delete your old OrbusVR launcher folder, download the new one and extract it to a location on your computer, and then run the launcher like usual to get the new patch.
Beta and Alpha users should both now have access to download the game files. If you are getting an error telling you that you don’t have permission, please let me know.
I just upgraded to beta but the download stops extracting about half way and then when i cancel it says that I might not have a valid password. Help pls.
I see, yeah I’m not really sure about that particular zip opener. Can you just right-click the Zip file and use the built-in Windows zip extractor? (Right click -> Extract All…)? If not I would recommend getting something like 7-Zip.
I just got the Mail to download the luncher. I did it, and bekame the message, that my account doesn´t have access to the alpha. I´m no native, so i´m not sure if it´s a mistake… I didn´t buy the game, so i´m not sure if i would have access to the alpha…
Greetings
If you didn’t buy the game (founder pack or higher) then you don’t have access for this Alpha test. However, there will be an Open Alpha test in two weeks where everbody can join for that test, including people that didn’t buy the game yet. So you yoo
If you previously downloaded the game already, you can copy over your resources/app/client folder from your old launcher folder into the new one, and you shouldn’t have to re-download the whole game if you were already on the latest patch.
Hey I want to pre-download for the open alpha but when i log in it says I don’t have access to it yet? Is there an account upgrade or something I have to do?
The download will start working for you later tonight. Sorry for any confusion. We are doing a pre-Open Alpha test for a couple of hours to prepare for the main event tomorrow.
Totally new here sorry in advance!
For the open alpha 7/28/17 I just downloaded the launcher and tried to install but it says I do not have access currently. Will I not be able to download the game files until the Open alpha goes live tomorrow? Was hoping to have it ready to go.
Excited to get involved on this!
