 How do you get into the Test server i've tried before but couldn't figure it out, I looked on the PS website, looked at what it said couldn't figure it out.

I'm not the best with computer, So say as if you where telling a 5 year old, or a Foreigner.

I'm not certain how the instructions on the PS forums could be any easier.

All you are doing is making a copy of the existing Planetside folder already installed on your computer and pasting it to a different location on your hard drive. After you paste the folder you will have two different Planetside folders, one for normal servers and one for the test server. Next go into the Planetside folder you just pasted and launch Planetside using the PlanetSideTest.exe to start Planetside and get onto the test server.

Timebomb,

 

What you do is this..  Find the planetside  folder from this location    C:\program files\soe\planetside   Create a new folder on your hard drive. 

Example: C:\planetside2   

 

Copy the planetside folder into the new folder your created

Once it's finsihed copying,  go into the planetside folder and look for the executable named Planetside "test" or "Beta"   I can't remember that exact name.  Once you find that,  create a shortcut of Planetside test/beta  to the desktop.   Don't copy the icon, but create a short cut.

If you're not the best at computers you might want to get help from a family memeber.

 

If I missed something somebody please fill in the blanks ...

Good luck

The file you want to run is called "PlanetSideTest.exe"
