Advanced Test Server Up for Pre Order Code Holders

[cerest]

For our faithful Homins who pre-ordered the game and have a code in-hand we have a little treat for you. You're now allowed to enter the Advanced Test Server. The ATS is where we try out all of the paches and bug fixes before they go live.

In order to access the server, please follow these instructions:

* Copy your Saga Of Ryzom client to a different directory.

* Open up your test client's "client.cfg" file with notepad and add the following line:

Application = { "ryzom_livetest", "./client_ryzom_rd.exe", "./" };

Start up the test client and log in normally. Your client will automatically patch to the current test version.

We apologize but only current registered players with their pre-order code entered into the system may join the ATS.
You can enter your pre-order code here: https://secure.nevrax.com/payment_profile/

Please note that there will be NO GM support for this server.

I noticed that the bug report tool is not active on the ATS, what channels are we supposed to use to report bugs?

I added

Application = { "ryzom_livetest", "./client_ryzom_rd.exe", "./" };

like I was suppose to and I still cant access the Advanced test server, it still only shows Windermeer and not the advanced test server.

If you made a second install and edited the file as directed, you wouldn't be able to see Windemeer any longer. Verify your client.cfg

Make sure that you edit the client.cfg file and not the client_default.cfg file as SoR will replace the client_default.cfg if you make any changes to it.

You'll need two shortcuts, one for Windermeer (non-test install) and one for ATS (test install). Simply copying a directory won't change related shortcuts.

I don't understand why the test server is only available to those that pre-ordered. It seems to me that Nevrax would want as many people as possible to play on that server. Restricting it to a subsection of the community seems counter-productive. :/

Couple of questions I have regarding the ATS:
1. Do they have character wipes?
2. Is it one server for all communties?


I really like having the Beta gang allowed to gather in one place. Good job here Nevrax.
