View Full Version : Install size, duplicate install?

My EQ2 folder is just under 18 gigs off a fresh install/patch.  I noticed that the inside of the /TestServer folder is almost an exact copy of the standard install folder though and I'm not sure that's how it's supposed to be...  I think I might have somehow patched a second copy of the game onto my computer.  How much is a full install of the game supposed to take up?  How can I safely get rid of the duplicate copy without harming anything.  I'd really rather not spend another 24 hours patching.  If it helps, I installed the game off the original DVD rom copy of the standard software (no expansions) and then patched from there.  After the first overnight patch stopped it still wouldn't let me play so I exited the viewer and when I turned it back on it started a new patch proccess.  Halfway through that second patch I realized how much space it was taking up (about 15 gigs at the time) and started to investigate when I saw the duplication.  Let me know if any other info is needed.  Thanks for any help.

The game should be around 10GB.It does sound like you downloaded the test server as well with tthe current size.  It will be a an almost exact duplication of the normal  game.Just delete what is in the test server folder if you do not plan to play on test.
