| Project Visitor Setup (Win XP/ Win 7) |
|
|
| |
| |
* Windows 10. After you run the installer
you will need to right-click on the ProjectVisitor.exe, select properties, select compatibility tab
and then turn on compatibility and select "windows 7". Then launch Project Visitor from the web page
as you normally would.
* If running dual monitor setup, you get much better performance out of ProjectVisitor
if you unplug one of the monitors
The Windows XP/7 installer provides the standard install that runs
fullscreen only.
If after you install ProjectVisitor and launch from your member page on ProjectVisitor.com your browser tries to save a PV.PVL file.
Just save it to your Desktop and either double click it or if you use Chrome it shows up at the bottom of the browser window, click on it there.
This will activate the PVPatcher and it will patch the game and launch it for you. Some browsers will just open the file and handle it, some you need to save the file and click on it.

DirectX - 9.0c End User Runtime
----------------------------------------
ProjectVisitor relies on DirectX-9 and many new machines
no longer come with that installed. DX10/DX11 are not
backwards compatible. You may need to install the
DirectX-9.0c runtime for Project Visitor to work properly.
You can download that installer at this link
Microsoft DirectX-9.0c End-User Runtime

Launching Project Visitor after installing client
----------------------------------------
*Special Note for New Users: Project Visitor is a little different then other games when it comes to launching the game.
After you download and install the Project Visitor client, Log into the ProjectVisitor.com website and on your member
page select a subscription.
Afterwards you will see a 'Launch' link on your member profile, select it, ProjectVisitor.com will attempt to launch the ProjectVisitor updater (if you get a pop-up for pv.pvl, select open).
The patcher will patch up the game and then launch ProjectVisitor for you. Each time you wish to launch into
Project Visitor, you launch from your member page on ProjecVisitor.com.
*CHROME Users* - chrome by default will not open the PV.PVL file, and it will not let you open it initially. Just let it save it, once the file is saved you should get the file listed at the bottom of the browser window with a little arrow that you can click on to give you options. You can select, OPEN, or you can select ALWAYS OPEN FILES OF THIS TYPE. Then click the launch button again and it will run the patcher with the file and you will not have to mess with this anymore (if you choose always open). The PV.PVL file is just a special text file containing the login ticket information to get into the game and it triggers the running of the patcher to get you up to date.
----------------------------------------
Anti-Virus Note
----------------------------------------
*Note: AVAST users, PV typically updates the EXE, so you may need to have an exception for it.
This applies to some of other similar programs as well otherwise PV may get blocked from accessing the servers.
