Title: Installing an older version of PS
Post by: gagadude on March 05, 2008, 02:50:20 pm

I'm tired of waiting for the inventory bug to get fixed I NEED to play, can I download an older version of PS and run it?
Or will the sever tell me I gotta update before i can get back online?
If I can where can i get an older version of PS?

While testing this issue I found two possibilites to "ignore" the bug:

• taking out your real gfx-card and using a on-board or cheap very old one (Riva TNT2/TNT Pro was on-board on mine)
• playing under windows.

You have to decide which solution suits you better. I don't play (only test) until that bug is fixed, because both possibilities are not suitable for me.

PS:
If you are really eager to play and even want to install an old version: try to compile the trunk and get a backtrace in order to help solve the bug:
