Re: Planetside Installation Guide '11


I wish they had an updated download, not one from five years ago, so only minimal patching was necessary

Re: Planetside Installation Guide '11


*Sighs*
Does PS1 work with Windows 7, 64 bit?

I've been through the download hell described above. I've reactivated my station account and have a live sub. (I've resubbed so I can complain about the Pro7 stuff).
I've downloaded both versions of the game, but neither will let me in.

For the original version, when I get to the page where it asks me to log in it says "must have a subscription" when I enter my station name and password.

For the Aftershock download, I get a fancy little launchpad but it says SOE is "down for maintenance" and won't let me log in.

Thanks for any help/advice

Yes, I run PS1 on Win 7 64bit. Can't say if the info in this thread is currently accurate or not. They just updated the game launcher so it might not be.

Re: Planetside Installation Guide '11


I have downloaded PS, installed it, ran the launcher and put in my Station name and password and I'm told I need to set up a subscription. I don't see a subscribe button anywhere. My SOE account goes all the way back to the PS Beta but as I haven't been on in a long long time I cannot see the sub in payment history nor can I find a place to subscribe on the SOE website. I'm in the UK so maybe it's different from the US?

Should I create a new SOE account and try again?

My friend just wanted to get some pre-taste to PS2 (new players to Planetside) with PS1, so he just went through this process. He said he bought the game from SOE site for 18€ and it included 1 month of sub.

Perhaps that makes someones life easier. He was not able to just sub to the game.

Re: Planetside Installation Guide '11


Like it has been stated above, I am told I need a Sub every time I try to log in after downloading and purchasing a new subscription. I used to play PS1 in it's infancy and miss it dearly. I just want a fix until PS2 is released!

Re: Planetside Installation Guide '11


I'm getting a network error when I try to log in to the launcher.

"Network error, the server is not responding. Please check your connections"

This is kind of rediculous, I mean the fact that I'm paying $15 for this 8 year old game is one thing, but to have to deal with stuff like this? ... come on.

I just installed yesterday; I still had the 45 days of comp time from SOE for the hacking incident. First off, installing from the old CDs did me no good and I was getting the launcher issue you were having. If you get a small little launcher that only has the username/password and a two little buttons under it, you have the wrong one. It will say the server's down/check your connection and I couldn't get past that.

I went here and clicked the "reinstall" link for Planetside
http://www.soe.com/getthegame

You get a normal-looking launcher with a progress bar that will download all the files. You have to enter username/password for it to work; I don't know what happens if you need to sub because I didn't need to with the comp time I have.

After that, if you have Win 7 64-bit, you will get a runtime error when you first start the game. I set both the launcher and the PS.exe file to XP compatibility and it fixed it (I don't know exactly which file actually needs it; I was just making everything I could XP compatible to get things to work). Also make sure there are no security issues where it chooses to not run as administrator and says you don't have permission or something. I made sure all users had permissions for everything.

How do I get my old character back?! I haven't played since about 2005 but I had a BR24-ish/CR5 NC on Emerald....plus a few other BR15-ish toons on Markov and other empires. Now the only thing showing is "Petehmb2" BR1 CR0 NC on Gemini.

So I hear this is no longer accurate - what's inaccurate about the OP?
