Hmm... Do you mean you get the popup with three choices:
 - open
 - open with
 - save

If you haven\'t the save options but you trust your browser, choose \'open\' and it will ask you for saving or if your window is full of @?,($qdfs, wait a moment then choose File -> Save As.

( Note that posting your OS can be a good idea. It\'s really hard to understand a problem when you don\'t know if it happens on Linux or Windows )

And for the full version, the game is in early devellopement but free. so the \'demo\' is all that you can get for the moment.

There are 5 parts and a reassembler.  You need to download all 6 files in to the same folder then run the reassembler to make the installation file.  Then, after you\'ve done that, run the installation file and go through the setup.  After that it\'s installed but you should update it using the updater.  You can do this by going to start -> All Programs -> Planeshift -> Planeshift Updater.  Let it go through it\'s thing and it will ask you to push a key when it\'s finished.  Then, once that\'s done, you can run the setup to configure it the way you want it...it\'s in the same place as the updater or you can just create a character and play.  Have fun.

You don\'t want to open the files seperately, that\'s what the reassembler is for.  Once you run the reassembler it will make the exe installation file and that\'s what you use to install it.

lol, seems ya responded to yourself before i got a chance to last time.  Well, all you have to do is just download the other parts you don\'t have, or just redownload them all if you don\'t know which part you do have.  Just make sure that all the parts and the reassembler are in the same folder before you run the reassembler.

Sorry, forgot to answer your second question.  No one really knows when the full version will come out.  I\'ve heard rumors that the next release (Crystal Blue) will be out this winter around December/January, but they are just rumors and for all anyone knows it could take longer or maybe less time.  What we have now is what the devs have completed...they have a LONG ways to go yet ;)

I played RS for about 2 hours before I dropped it.  What we have right now is a tech demo showing what the game engine is capable of.  There is 2 quests, but there is no reward for doing them and talking to NPC\'s is very frustrating right now.  There are also 3 types of crystals that you can find (ruby, emerald, and diamond).  If you get enough of those you can buy a weapon, but they are very expensive.  Here\'s a link to the merchant page:
 http://planeshift.fragnetics.com/merchant/merchant.html

There is no combat as of yet so the weapons are just for show.
