This must have already been described somewhere, but I assume we should uninstall the beta completely before installing the full release, right? That will mean uninstalling from Programs & Features, and then deleting the ToH install folder that holds the beta patches. Should we also delete the ToH folder in My Documents?

Preload downloading now. Thank you, BIS!!!

Yes OMAC, you should first uninstall the beta and then install the final.

I'm unsure about the folders... BIS?

Make a backup at least. I will most likely overwrite the new TakeOnH profile with my current one, after I look at it anyway.

I just got a mail with the link for the downloader. It seems you can preload most of the content, and the final package on release.

Great… (downloading)

6. Once all 8 files are downloaded, the downloader will stop at about 95%

For me it stopped at 100% and then said something about "Product files not found" (I guess that's the .exe)

Glups, I hope this doesn't mean that we all should redownload everything... :pray:

The Installer of full version should detect installed preorder beta and offer you "upgrade". You will not have to even enter the Cd key again.

Yes,

it is waiting for the exe.

When the game is released just run this sprocket.exe again and it will download the exe.

Typical BIS: ahead of their time, totally awesome, and kick-ass. No fuss, no muss, no hassle. No wonder there weren't any complicated beta uninstall directions; smart upgrade tech already developed!!! :D

Any idea why my download location changed to My Documents\Sprocket ?

First time I started the download program it let me choose the location (I chose a folder in D:). But now later when I restarted the downloader it went straight to My Documents in C: with 0% progress.

EDIT:

I deleted a key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SprocketDownloader\Dirs so the downloader let me choose the right download folder again. Resumed the download successfully.

4 hours remaining on the download! hasn't slowed a bit. (thank god)

I'm sick of waiting. Literally.

Staying up late last couple of nights plus getting up extra early this morning combined to make me feel shitty today.

Dam you BIS and your fun games ! :p
