Hello Stellaris Community!
The Stellaris 3.99 Open Beta is on-going. While we’ve seen a great number of players opt-ing in, and giving feedback on the open beta, we’ve seen a few issues crop up over the course of the open beta that are outside of our control, and as such we’ve put together a document to help those of you who are unaccustomed to opting-in to open betas on Steam, or are having issues with getting the latest and greatest version of the Stellaris 3.99.* open beta on Steam.
How do I opt-into/out of the Open Beta?
It is important to note that this open beta is only available on Steam.
1. In your Steam Library, Right-Click on Stellaris, then go to Properties
2. Click the Betas Tab, and then in the Beta Participation drop-down, choose “Stellaris_test - 3.99.0 Open Beta”. If you’re looking to opt-out of the Open Beta and return to the live version of the game, choose “None”.
3. After the game updates and downloads, you can confirm your version of the Open Beta by loading the game and checking the main menu. Your current version of the game is listed at the bottom of the main screen. This will also tell you whether or not the checksum is modified. If you are getting a modified checksum message, you are running mods and should restart the open beta without mods - mods will experience significant issues running the open beta!
I am opted-in to the Open Beta, but I am not getting the latest update
This is an issue that has only cropped up recently, and while we are investigating the cause of this issue, there is a workaround that has worked for most people who have tried it so far.
1. Uninstall Stellaris. Right-click Stellaris, go to Manage, and then click Uninstall.
2. Right-click Stellaris, go to Properties, then the Betas tab, and in the Beta Participation drop-down choose “None”
3. In the top bar of Steam, click “Steam”, then open “Settings”. Choose the “Downloads” tab and scroll until you find Clear Download Cache, then click the “Clear Cache” button. This will require you to re-login to Steam.
4. Reinstall the game, and then follow the opt-in instructions listed above.
On behalf of all of us here on Stellaris, we want to thank everyone who has taken the time to try the Open Beta so far, and those of you who are planning to try the Open Beta in the future. Community feedback is a big part of what we do here on Stellaris, and we want to say thank you to everyone who has taken the time to offer their feedback on the Open Beta so far!
