Nother point... if Gorre isn't showing on your server list you are not logging in with a client that has been modified correctly as per those instructions...

Copy your Toa directory and put those 2 files there replasing the pre-existing ones. Then run Camelot.exe from that directory.

Now, having solved that, Goa give bandwidth to download that extra patch. I feel I'm back on a dial-up!!!

Nerf can't edit..

Connecting to the test server
To participate in the beta test you must download and install these files in your TOA directory. These files will enable you to connect on Gorre.

Can't install them as they are .DAT files, so how you get through that? :eek7:

Even if you are running ToA you need to make some changes to update.dat and login.dat as per the instructions given in the link above before you are going to be able to see Gorre as a server option

The .dat files you can just as easily open and then copy paste however please remember if you intend to keep playing your cutomary server as well as participate in the beta you will need to maintain both versions of the files as the new ones will not allow you to log into the normal servers.

Instructions said:
Finally create a shortcut pointing to the "login.dat" and "update.dat" file you have installed.

Hi, I'm a computer n00b. How do I do that? (Guess that's what I'm missing) :p

Connecting to login server..

Checking for new update client..

Checking for updated files..

Mythic Update (Not Responding)

And before you post the Instructions again, I've read them 5 or 6 times already. Yes I could be totally blind, and missing something, but I dont think I am. Maybe I should have paid attention in ICT lessons back in school. :\

For those having problems with the instructions on how to get to Gorre:

Copy C:/Mythic/ToA (or whatever you've called it)

into C:/Mythic/ToA_Test

download Gorre.zip from this link

unzip it into C:/Mythic/ToA_Test

use windows explorer (window key +E) to navigate to C:/Mythic/ToA Test and right click and drag camelot.exe to your desktop.

Select "Create Shortcuts here".

doubleclick the new shortcut.

Done all as I've been told, will try now :m00:
You can either copy the files into your test directory and overwrite the ones that are in there already or you can open the new ones with a text editor such as Notepad and copy/paste the contents into the exisiting files.

As I write this (18:30 CET) Gorre is full. Go to the server select screen (by choosing 'no thank you' as a quick login choice) and if there are more than 1500 people on Gorre, then it won't accept new connections.
