In future (after launch) will we HAVE to run it in GameTap or will we always be able to use the stand-alone client?

I may like gametap, but the flashy startup and the fact it takes a while to launch makes me hope we can open Myst Online outside of gametap.

As of right now, you can access the Uru Live launcher by the following method:

In the volumes\games\140000150\data subdirectory of GameTap in your Program files (or wherever you installed it), is an exe called UruLauncher.exe. Run it to run Uru Live.

I can make no guarantees that this will still still work after launch, however.

I was more or less referring to the client we got from Preview.

I really do not want to have to download MOUL again through GameTap if I can help it, anyway.

Actually, people have had success by copying their dat and sfx directories from the old install folder to the new one. It may save you a lot of downloading. :)

I meant the main download, but anyway...

I've actually figured out that they WILL need to have a standalone client, because otherwise, how will the free players aka visitors enter? They can't go through GT since they won't have an account there...
