The idea is (I believe) that it's more intended for 'friend next door' situations, so you can lend them your discs.

Either that or it's a shallow attempt to get people to buy the retail box to keep the distributors happy :-)

He could download the ATS client, and run the ryzom_recover thingy.. That normally changes the ATS client into a normal client.. (This is not an official way to do it, but it should work if there's no other way)

Hmm, i take it the old beta download isnt still available..which would put you close to the release version, within 2 builds i think.

Otherwise maybe a copy of pcgamer or similar still have the downloadable. Plug in a patch..

Or at a push, someone with a re writer could send you a copy of their patched game you would then have to creat an account....to use it.

I am very low on cash atm, otherwise i would volunteer to do this for you, i have loads of blank discs, but unfortunately, atm i cannot affrd stamps for job applications lets alone to send disks to someone. however i am sure someone else here could do this very easily..

Not sure if I should post this here or not!! but here goes..
The game is available for download through jolt.co.uk
But only if you live in a country where the game is not distributed?
So you need to use a proxy server coming from a such a country, you will charged as you would for a boxed version and jolts CC billing system doesnt care what country you put for your billing address :)
You will then get an e-mail with a download link and serial number.
You dont need to use the proxy to actually download the game.. just the purchase.

Peace.
