You could Recopy your PlanetSide directory again so that when you recopy it, it has most of the patches, and the only patch you would have to get is the newest Test Server patch...

.... plz read his post man. Just copy and paste your PS folder over your test and then run TestServer.exe

1) create a folder on your pc, and call it "PS test" (or whatever)
2) go into your harddrive and find planetside C:programfiles, sony, planetside.
3) then copy everything from inside that folder into your new folder "PS test".
4) remove all the startup buttion exsept the "planetside test"
5) click that "planetside test" button

there you go, should cut it down
