What this tutorial does
This tutorial uses the fan-made BLREdit application to connect you to the fan-made community servers, putting you back into the action. You will be playing Blacklight: Retribution within minutes after following these steps.
Download & Installation
**For the duration of this guide, you will be asked to look in the directory of your installation. It typically can be found in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\blacklightretribution.**

Start by installing Blacklight: Retribution from your steam library. If it is no longer in your Steam library, please consult the link in the credits at the end of this guide.

The installation is as easy as four steps

Configuration
BLREdit will prompt you to:

  • Add a game client
  • Change your player name
Click on "OK" to continue to the settings tab.

Set player name
  • Replace BLREdit-Player in the Player Name textbox with your desired player name.

Add Game Client
  • Click the Launcher tab
  • Select Client List
  • Click on Add Client (at the bottom of the window)
  • Select [BLR]\Binaries\Win32\FoxGame-win32-Shipping.exe and confirm

Click on the server list to view the available servers. The link in the credits also provides a tutorial to set up your own dedicated server.

That's all! You can now immediately begin playing.

Unfortunately, no one in the US has chosen to host a server yet, so we're beholden to EU hours. Once that changes, I think there will be a boom in player count.
