Problem with opt-in - Having both versions

Bashar_al-Assad

So I changed the folder name of the open beta and downloaded the opt in.
In the opt in launcher, when I click launch game, I get a message box saying Ambiguous package name ... etc.
After I click ok around 80 times(after each "ok", a similar box appears with some different map names.) the game starts and works fine.
Clicking "ok "80 message boxes is not fun.

Oh and my eyes hurt because of the yellow tint in every map.

change the yellow by ~nameplatecolor 100 200 250

That happens when you have duplicates of the same files (matching filenames) within the same folder structure/location that the game uses to look for files to load, it should be a lot more than 80 if you have duplicated your whole game

That’s what causes it.. I assume you need to move your normal beta game install to a different folder on your HDD (for eg.. not in steamapps/common where the opt-in is kept), that 'should' help. Then after you move the beta game, you will then need to run it from the AAGame.exe executable instead when you want to play that version.

I've had it plenty when working with the editor and backing up my maps/assets.. I didn’t even know it happened when simply running the game.

Ah thanks will try moving.
Is there a way to replace all the yellow colored text in the HUD with blue or any other color? As in some setting.
I'm least fond of yellow and playing the opt-in with yellow everywhere causes a headache for me

@-Nero I even deleted the open beta, the problem still exists.
It looks like in the Maps folder, <insert_map_name> and <insert_map_name> GEO folders are clashing.
