I'm not a fan of TMO or IB but they are doing their share of Velious Beta. Everyone that plays on blue/red's goal is to have velious out. Doesnt matter what guild your from we should help each other accomplish this for the server.

I don't prefer the term "forced beta", but I think another "beta weekend" would be good, where both red and blue are taken down so everyone has the opportunity to focus on Velious without distractions. So technically it would still be a "voluntary beta" :)

Would love to help test but traveling in London for work and the issue with the dsetup.dll being detected as a Trojan in MCafee doesn't allow me to install p99 on my work laptop. :(

I tried installing before I left :( sorry!

Mcafee is trash and more of a virus than the p99 dl.

Just fyi

Just format your work computer. Velious more important than whatever lame work files you have.

Oh I'm aware it's trash, but that's not my choice to make. Interestingly enough, they have the security settings so locked down on these things that I can't change anything in Mcafee to bypass the auto scan, but I can transfer files from my USB drive, install EQ Titanium using Daemon Tools and update from the EQ site while on my work network without any issue. But that one damn dsetup.dll sets off all sorts of alarms, bells and whistles. le sigh.

Try copying your install to a flash drive and make a new shortcut and just run it from there. Works sometimes.

No need to "install". Just copy your normal p99 install folder onto an external, then run it from there. Whether that will escape McAfee scans I can't tell you (depends on your ITs setup) but I've run p99 off an external with good success doing it this way. EQ didn't install any registry keys or anything else so a simple folder copy works fine.

Uninstall McAfee, install Microsoft Security Essentials for the win.

BDA and taken are at fault on this also. But lets face it, no guild is doing large amounts of beta testing. Can't even think that they are with beta player base numbers always being below 5 lol.

Also, blue should just be taken down until velious testing is completed. Can't help but think that a wipe is in order and then release an xpack every 5 months.
