Snapshot Installation

Understanding Snapshots

Snapshots are development builds released after each short development cycle, containing bug fixes and new features. These are early-stage versions of the game, not a finished product, so you should expect to encounter bugs, unintended issues, and incomplete features.

Prerequisites

Before installing a snapshot, make sure you have:

  • Downloaded a snapshot file from the Download snapshots page
  • Sufficient disk space to extract the game (minimum 10 GB recommended)
  • Permission to run executable files on your computer

Installation Steps

Step 1: Extract the File

  • Locate the snapshot file you downloaded (usually a .zip or .rar file)
  • Choose a location on your computer to extract it (e.g., C:\Games\CSCDVMP)
  • Right-click the file → Extract All (or use extraction software)
  • Wait for the extraction process to complete

Step 2: Launch the Game

  • Open the extracted folder
  • Find the cscdvmp.exe file
  • Double-click to run the game

Step 3: Initial Setup

  • The game will launch with the opening screen
  • Configure graphics, audio, and control options to your preference
  • Save your settings to continue

Managing Multiple Snapshots

If you want to play multiple snapshot versions:

  • Extract each snapshot into separate folders
  • Use clear naming (e.g., CSCDVMP-Snapshot5, CSCDVMP-Snapshot4)
  • Each version will store its save data independently
