I think it is safe to assume that the RoF version is the same, but if anyone happens to buy the expansion so they can play it on Live or whatever, please do a version check on it as well as described here:

And for anyone that runs into the same install error I was getting, I figured out how to resolve it. You just need to completely exit Steam and restart it. If you have troubles doing that, just restart your PC and it should download fine.
I highly recommend everyone downloading this now. As soon as I can validate a few things, I will make a news post about it to make sure people start getting it while they can (in case it goes away but let's hope it doesn't). As long as both the F2P and RoF downloads don't both poof from Steam, we should have a valid client available for EQEmu again for a while to come. The only reason I suggest getting it now is incase they remove the F2P download and leave the RoF one which costs money. You can't beat free!
