Help trying to get into server

Post by NewPlayer »

Metaforge was not on the list when I got the client installed to I manually typed in the ip address.

I entered a name and password when I was prompted, but it keeps repeated asking me for them again.

Do I need to registar somewhere first before using this server or am I doing something wrong.

I'm using the latest GTK+ Windows client.

This usually means that the name you have selected is already in use by another player. Since the password you are using does not match what is on file - you are then prompted again for a player name.

No. I tried all sorts of weird names to make sure that wasn't the case.

I got in, but the problem was that I could not use the pop-up dialog boxes to enter my response. I had to use the main system text window.

A few players reported issues with latest client, so i guess i'll need to check if everything's all right :)

Just tested creating a new char with latest client CVS, works fine.

Make sure the dialog box with 'enter name / password' has the focus when entering keys - and not the main GTK window.
