Speeding up the d3 ptr download(1)Category: Technical SupportJune-27-2014 1:25 AM PDT (8 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
Is it possible for me to copy my current d3 to the ptr folder and only download the ptr files needed and skip the 10gb dl required?

The reason I ask is because I live in South Africa and downloading 10gbs is a) time consuming (will take me a whole day to download) and B) Will result in my ISP shaping my adsl line for downloading too much too quickly.

So does the bnet launcher have a "discovering files" system like steam has, and is it possible for me to just skip the 10gb by copying my current d3 into the d3 ptr folder?

SirDoNKeY,

You'll need the entire PTR client as provided if you wish to participate in testing I'm afraid as it's a complete game client. You can't shorten the download by substituting files from the full release ahead of time.
