# Getting Started
|
||
|

|
||
## **Before getting started**
|
||
BeamMP is only compatible with legitimate, Steam versions of the game. "Cracked" copies are not supported.
|
||
|
||

|
||
## **Windows Installation**
|
||
1. Go to our [Official Website](https://beammp.com/) and download the latest `BeamMP_Installer.zip` by clicking the green, "Download Client" button.
|
||
2. Open the `BeamMP_Installer.zip` archive.
|
||
3. Launch `BeamMP_Installer.exe` and follow the instructions.
|
||
4. The BeamMP Launcher icon should appear on your desktop. If not, just search for “BeamMP” in the windows search bar. Afterwards you should see a little black window appear, shortly after BeamNG.drive should start. Remember to keep this console open while you are playing.
|
||
5. Once BeamNG launches, press “Play”. In the main menu you should see “Multiplayer” and from there you can play BeamMP.
|
||
6. You will be prompted with a login pop-up, you can either play as a guest (not all servers will allow guests), or create an account on our [Forum](https://forum.beammp.com) and then login to BeamMP with your credentials.
|
||
7. Select any server you like, and press “Connect”. Enjoy!
|
||
|
||
Just to note, as you are loading into a map with multiple vehicles spawned it might take longer than expected to join.

||
## **Known Issues**
|
||
If you don’t see the “Multiplayer” button. Make sure that the BeamMP mod is activated in the “Mod Manager” then try pressing CTRL + L.
|
||
|
||
It's also important that BeamMP is the **only** mod activated in the “Mod Manager” as otherwise this can cause issues.
|
||
|
||
If you need further help with installation, you are welcome to create a post on our [Forum](https://forum.beammp.com) or ask in the [Official Discord](https://discord.gg/beammp)
