Do you know if we will still be able to play the current PRSP version along with the announced PR new release?

@SgtDad

Having luck won't help to find the answer there at all...

I think it should be OK to go but i also think that the game will not alter to most of prmp's changes. Correct me if i'm wrong :)

To be safe you could always make a backup of your 0.85 and change the PRSP client/serverarchive files to the 0.85 version, thats if you want the 0.86 patch for mp too :D

If you've got enough HDD space you can do "double" installs - copy the existing pr rename copy folder to pr0856, the prsp to prsp0856 - now install pr patch 0.860 - when released prsp0860...you sure have to fix the archive.cons and shortcuts too...

That way i had 4 different versions MP and SP playable the same time...plus one SP for hotfix testing...with my BF2 folder being around 70GB :-)

Acelondoner was asking in PR General Dicussion
Also one other quick thing, i am running pr multiplayer ver 0.86. Can i install and play the single player version of pr (prsp) or do i have to wait untill prsp vr 0.86? Thanks in advance! DAN
As it's not the right place i linked us to here in my post:

Dan

The hard ( but safe) way

Part1
rename pr folder to pr086, change existing shortcuts point to pr086, then get pr 0.856 and install it, then PRSP 0.856

best is Non Installer with Hotfixes: Battlefield-Basis© Community | Downloads: Project Reality SP - v0.85 Non Installer Full (~404 MB)

- now the hardest part:

rename pr to pr085, rename pr_sp to pr_sp_085 That way it's easier when PRSP0.87 is out)

Part2
then you have to edit pr_sp_085 clientarchives.con and pr_sp_085 serverarchives.con to make it link to pr085 folder instead pr folder. Also you have to edit the init.con and the desktop shortcuts.

If you consider to go the hard way i'll post those edited files for you while you work your way through Part1 - just tell me to do so :-)

If you are going to play MP too you should rename pr086 back to pr ( and shortcuts) for updating with 0.874 (tonight?) :-)

You still can play SP too when you have pr0856 MP and SP...till 0.874 PRSP is released
