IMPORTANT NOTE This guide is for setting up the client to play. If you already have a client from Sunset you only need the launcher. If you do not have the client then you only need to download the client since it has the launcher already. * Game account and forum account are separate to play VG you need a Game Account the forum is only for the forums * ORIGINAL GAME DISCS WILL NOT WORK AGAIN ORIGINAL GAME DISCS WILL NOT WORK
Video Tutorial

Written Instructions
1. Create a Login Account
This account is used to log into the server in-game. This is not the same as a forum account!

2. Download Client
Download the sunset client (original discs do not work)
http://vgoplayers.com/downloads.php?tab=client
2.5 Download Launcher (Optional)
- YOU ONLY NEED THIS IF YOU ALREADY HAVE THE CLIENT FROM SUNSET IF NOT THEN SKIP
- Download the launcher from http://vgoplayers.com/playvg/index.htm and extract it to the root folder of vanguard.
- After you have extracted it verify you have the following three files in the folder.
- If you already have the launcher verify it say's version 4.0.0.0 or higher at the bottom left
- If it does not download the launcher from the link above
Unblock Client .exe
- VERY IMPORTANT YOU DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP
- Once it has finished downloading right click on the file and select properties.
- If it has the Unblock box check it then hit apply/ok
Extract client files
You can now extract the client.
Client Folder Verification
- Vanguard folder should look like this now:
Start the launcher
Double click on VGOEmuLauncher.exe
Configure the Launcher
- Click OK on the box.
- Here as long as it say's Client Found! go ahead and click Save

- This is where you enter your game account username/password not your forum credentials if you created a forum account
- You should see New Telon in the server list select it and hit play
- If you did not download the client but already have one in window mode verify
- the version on the top left is
