FAQ:

• Q: Will redux ever replace the current live version of DD1.
• A: No. Due to the drastic changes and the original state of what DD1 is today the game is considered complete and in a stable state.

• Q: How can I have both versions side by side?
• A: After downloading Redux you can navigate to the installation location on Steam (C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Dungeon Defenders) and copy this entire folder to a new location. Then switch back the beta branch to NONE - Opt out of all beta programs. Create a shortcut to the bigger exe file DunDefGame.exe in both folders and name them accordingly to which version you wish to launch.
