Private beta 1.4.2

Download private beta

Downloading does not start your test window or issue a key. No purchase is required for this invitation-only test.

Unsigned test build

Windows may show an unknown-publisher warning. Verify the file before running it. A matching hash identifies this build; it does not guarantee that antivirus software will accept it. Installation and antivirus acceptance are still unverified for this candidate.

Your test access

72 hours on one PC

Key distribution pending

You need a separate Nessie-issued 72-hour key. Nessie will send invited testers their key directly; this page does not generate or email one. Wait for that key before activating.

The 72 hours start at your first successful activation on one PC and continue while the app is closed. Downloading or reinstalling does not reset the clock.

A Discord invitation code is separate and cannot activate Nessie. Keep your test key private.

Verify this exact download

In PowerShell, from the folder where you downloaded the installer, run:

Get-FileHash -LiteralPath '.\nessie-1.4.2-private-beta-setup.exe' -Algorithm SHA256

The result must match all 64 characters:
