Download all 5 parts and the
Reassembler which builds a big .exe.

thanks again... i have all of the files.  ran the run_me_first.bat done.  i searched through all of the files and there is no icon that goes directly to the game.  there is no icon to planeshift on my desktop either?  which files opens the actual game?

It should have made a PlaneShift.exe file in the same dir.  This is a self extracting executable and should launch the installer.

there is a \'PlaneShiftV0.2.010.exe\' file and i clicked on that.  but that installs the game all over again.  which is the EXACT file name of the .exe file that fires up the game???

Wait wait wait wait... i see a psclient.exe.  

arrghh... i clicked on it and it said \'Windows has generated errors blah blah blah...\' and shut it down.  it said \'No Harware Acceleration!\'  What do i do?
