Meh, it installed into a totally different area on my PC anyway.

It should install in its own beta directory and have no impact on any other installs of eq. I don't think the launcher they use now can even detect a titanium install

Is it free to play or is it going to be a premium server?

Beta is free I think. Real ragefire will require all access sub.

It is premium - you'll need to pay. (Ele is correct - Beta is free)

Yep, if you use a copy of your P99 folder you're going to run into trouble... some zones (Nektulos etc) aren't going to be the same.

Copying over live's files would be best if you have it. Otherwise, You can copy titanium over to save some time with downloading the zone files that are still shared and beta will patch 10 gigs or less to their default directory which is not your program files. Eq, for me, patches in users/public/soe/installed games/Everquest

Yes, Ragefire is Daybreak's progression beta.

I keep EQLive attached to Steam, and P99 in its default. The two never clash, also I can use my Steambuxs from selling TF2 hats to fund SC.

CS:GO also good for that kind of thing, skin gambling getting really popular lately :)

If you have live EQ installed already, you can make the whole process far faster by duplicating your live EQ folder and choosing that folder when you launch the beta installer. It's only a ~400MB patch that way.

Ragefire is running off titanium client? I find that hard to believe.

How did you come to that conclusion?
