Dear Atysians and Newcomers,

Recently we posted that we were very happy with the way the VIP phase is progressing in Ryzom; because of this we have now decided to expand the access to our servers to everybody who already had an active account, free trial included. Yes, even if you previously only had a free trial you can now once more log into Ryzom for free with all your stored characters ;) ! The only restriction still applied to the free trial accounts will of course be the geographical limitation to the starter island "Ruins of Silan", but this restriction will not last long either! We will keep you posted on all of this when the time comes.

ATTENTION for those of you waiting to step onto Atys for the first time, please don't forget that we are still in a testing phase. This means that Ryzom is still closed to newcomers as the creation of new accounts is not yet permitted. If you don't already have an active Ryzom account you won't be able to play Ryzom yet. Don't worry though, we plan to reopen the account activation pages shortly; once again, we will let you know as soon as it happens.

Before you can get started, you must first prepare your game client to access the new servers. To accomplish this, there are two methods you can use.

1. If you still have a Ryzom client on your computer:
- Download and install the fixer from : ryzom_fixer.exe (<60KB).
- Launch Ryzom.

2. If you don't have a Ryzom client on your computer:
- Read the instructions on the download page of ryzom website

Now that you have a working client, you should be able to connect to the servers with your usual username and password. If you have any trouble preparing your client for the game, please don't hesitate to contact a CSR in CeB. You can find more information on how to connect to CeB on the forums.

Once you have got to the character select screen, you should see that all of your old characters are there; please feel free to play with as many as you wish. If you encounter any problems, you should use the support ticket system to report it directly to your server's CSR team.

If the ticket system is not available for any reason, please send an email to support@ryzom.com. When you submit an issue, please try to be as detailed as possible and include all relevant information.

Thank you once again for your loyalty and above all for your patience.

The new Ryzom team bids you a very warm welcome and is absolutely delighted to see you again in our world Smile

The Ryzom Team.

Mirror:
http://dl.kami-alliance.info/ryzom_fixer.exe (53K) (if you already have ryzom installed)
http://dl.kami-alliance.info/ryzom_setu ... xe.torrent (113K) (dl.kami-alliance.info(bozewolv.servers.kaetemi.be) is seeding too)
http://dl.kami-alliance.info/ryzom_setup_637.exe (1.4G) (probably not as fast as the torrent, use only if you can't use torrent)

Note: all files are exactly the same as those offered on the main website, including the torrent (which is extremely fast btw).

i cant see the difference between "active at the end" like first step VIP, and active at the liquidation (second step VIP) as you could not change your status since the liquidation started....

did i misunderstood something ?

who will be concerned by second step ?

This is a bad way to post news.

In the second news, admin posted: "Because of this, we have now decided to re-open the game in a few days for free to ALL ACCOUNTS, Free Trial included".

As you can see he also used all capital letters.
I translated (correctly) this news in a well known italian forum.

This is a bit different from the latest news. And people, of course, are a bit disappointed of this ambiguity.

Now, I NO MORE TRANSLATE any other news from the admin, because I don't want to became untrusted in the other forums.

On the opposite, french one is simple and clear:
frog eater forum wrote:nous avons décidé d’ouvrir l’accès à nos serveurs à tous ceux qui avaient un compte actif lors de la liquidation, free trial inclus.
we have decided to re open the server access to all who had an active account AT THE LIQUIDATION, free trial included.

We, frenchies, know the truth....must be eating frogs....or nails



On a side note...why not opening the servers to ALL ACCOUNTS (unsubbed included), should not cost anything as it's still free for all atm.....and i think a happy homin, allowed to enjoy his "old" game for free, to meet again his friends for a short period, have better chance to stay, paying, than to consider him less important than a free trial, letting him waiting, as an Xth new customer...my though tho
