Welcome to PlaneShift and the boards!

You download a client based on your operating system, and you can use either torrents (for a peer-to-peer network) or download the binary (.exe for example) straight from a website. It's usually easiest to use the binary if you're not familiar with torrents at all. So if you're on a Windows machine, you would use one of the following mirrors from the Downloads page:



You don't need to download anything else afterwards. After the installation completes, it's usually advised to run the updater just to check that everything you have is up-to-date. Then make sure you have registered for a game account, and hop right in :]

We have several stickied guides in this very forum section for beginners, and feel free to ask anyone for help in-game. Not everyone will stop running around to answer some questions you may have, but don't let that discourage you. You always have the Help channel in-game for pressing issues - it's the last tab in your chat window.

Good luck and have fun!

That patch was to update from 0.3.015 to 0.3.015b. Since the most recent release, the patch is no longer a part of the process.
