with an install wizard

I'd imagine you'd download the 1.2 update and it would be an executable that updates your ESF directory to the latest version....much like the 1.1 update for 1.0.

Besides that, EVM is server-side for the most part, ESF is not.

Yes, it's good that it's completely automated. Because I can't get that EVM working either. suxXx

It will be on Steam. And basically it will be an installer (both update patch and full install) just like the other updates ;).

yeeah and hopefully I have to upload it another 6 hours (the full version)

Yes it'll be like the B1.1 installer (just made by me ....) ... for sure there'll be a lil difference ... but basically it'll be the same

we're trying to make it as easy as possible for everyone ... (I get sick of the amount of threads in help section)
and I think there'll be a WON and a steam installer for B1.2 (if WON still exists then)

Hibiki ... he wasn't comparing ESF B1.2 to EVM (as the topic said) ... he compared their installing methods

EVM Client shouldn't even be called a client. I mean the only thing it really does is give you a bunch of open folders for you to put your own models into. A new sound for each of the transformations, and a new aura. The rest is run through 4 servers that lag like hell. They are being really hush hush about the SP that would include the code and .dll files for us to make our own servers (obviously). However, Some people are saying it will only work on Linux.

Listen, it's very simple.

You have ESF 1.1 on your harddisk.

You download the 1.2 patch.

You install the 1.2 patch, which converts your ESF files from 1.1 to 1.2.

You can start playing.

no it doesnt convert anything the way patches work is they replace the old files

EVM is just an addon created by a bunch of people who don't have the patience to wait for 1.2 to come out...by the time the server version of EVM comes out, 1.2 will be out for a long time already...
