Playing 1.2.3 with 1.3 Open Beta

I read the following in the FAQ thread:

"Q: Am I still able to play ESF 1.2.3?
A: Yes, you are."

Does this imply that I'm able to play the 1.2.3 version with the Open Beta Final download? If not, does it mean that I have to uninstall 1.3 and download 1.2.3? If so, how do I play 1.2.3 with the Open Beta Final 1.3 version that I currently have installed?

Thanks,

It means that the folder names of the stable version (v1.2.x) and the Open Beta are seperated. This means you can install both of them and play both of them as well without having to worry about removing one or the other.

esf v1.2.x folder = "steamapps\username\half-life\esf"
Open beta folder = "steamapps\username\half-life\esf_openbeta"

Thanks for the quick response bro, I appreciate it.
