Two questions:

1) I am stuck on the ATS, how do I get unstuck?
2) I can't post to the ATS section of the board, can you fix that?

Raynes I copied your post to the ATS forums. I don't have any way to unstick you, so it's up to the CSRs who troll the ATS forums to do that.

I haven't received any official email since the last newsletter and I never received the 'bring a friend' email so I don't know if my Ryzom email is working. Are people receiving emails or can we just do the install and log in?

Thanks,

Yes, you would be emailed stating that you've been accepted. You can double check your email settings in your user profile (https://secure.nevrax.com/payment_profile/). Also all online email providers seem to think we are junk mail :) So check any junk mail folders you may have.

Levels take effort and time to achieve, plots lines take time to explore and, to date, feed back from the ATS players has been largely ignored until AFTER the patches have been applied to the main server.

That being the case, if there is an *official* and well organized testing to be done, I'll gladly donate my subscribed playing time to testing Nevrax's product; otherwise, I'll see you on Windermeer.
Well I can officially tell you all now that you will start out at level 50 and have 500,000 dappers for every new character you roll. This may be adjusted later (higher or lower we don't know) but at least you WILL be able to test the higher level features straight out of the shoot. :)

EDIT: You will start out at level 50 not 151. Sorry for the mix up

Cerest, I tested last night and during lunch, loading the ATS version of the client shows the test server available, when I select it and load, it says 'shard closed'

I used your instructions for the zip, made a full copy of the ryzom folder, and let it patch.

Is the shard closed until a certain date?

Well I just logged on the ATS. Keep in mind that there is constant patching happening on this server and that there is more downtime associated with this than on the live server. Give it another try.

I find it really funny that so many people complained about not being able to ue the test server, they changed the rules, and still no one is on there.

Everytime I have been on testing, no one else is. Only 4 people have posted to the test section of the forums.
