What I did was rename Login.dll & update.dll to say login-toa.dll & update-toa.dll then extracted those two files from the gorre.zip file.

If i wanted to play on the old servers, i called the new files Login-nf.dll & update-nf.dll & rename login-toa.dll to login.dll & so on.

Sure it's a 5.4 meg d/l everytime but least it saves me the hassle of doing 2 toa directories

Open Update.dat with Notepad

Delete all in it and exchange with:

Mythic Patch
193.252.123.21:1280/updates/english/atlantis/mpatch.dat
193.252.123.21:1280/updates/english/atlantis/mpatch.dat


Make sure you have no " " at the ends of each lines (space tabs, that is)

Then open your Login.dat and exchange all inside with:

# Socket descriptor list
[main]
numofservers=10
quickplay=0

[daocclient0]
addr=193.252.123.20
port=10500

[daocclient1]
addr=193.252.123.30
port=10500

[daocclient2]
addr=193.252.123.20
port=10501

[daocclient3]
addr=193.252.123.30
port=10501

[daocclient4]
addr=193.252.123.20
port=10502

[daocclient5]
addr=193.252.123.30
port=10502

[daocclient6]
addr=193.252.123.20
port=10503

[daocclient7]
addr=193.252.123.30
port=10503

[daocclient8]
addr=193.252.123.20
port=10504

[daocclient9]
addr=193.252.123.30
port=10504


Again, make sure each line dont have a " " at the end (again, space tab)

Then run camelot.exe, you should now be downloading a new camelot.exe and be told to restart application.

After this, re-run and you should be downloading stuff to patch to 1.69 OF (Old Frontiers), gogogogo excal ;)

Mind you, be aware that the 10 sec lag spikes are affecting all the servers !
