As for the account... Not sure, involves a glance into the DB. Maybe someone else will come and reply :)


Ok, thanks. Just as well my other mmorpg has just been revamped :P

Otherwise, the validation email can take anywhere from a few minutes to a day to arrive, and be sure to check your Spam/Junk Mail folders.

Also, you do realize that \"MacabreWolf\" is no longer a suitable name... ;)

ok, so what exactly is a \"suitable\" name and is there anyway to change it?
Ok, tried logging in with my e-mail and password, but my password is incorrect, I know it\'s the right password...

Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Still awaiting validation e-mail
« on: September 13, 2005, 06:14:51 pm »
I tried to register my MB char \"MacabreWolf\" on the registration page over two days ago, I was wondering how long the e-mail normally takes or even if it ever comes :P

Lol, mine\'s taking longer than the download (1hr 40mins), would be alot better if it downloaded them all first then unpacked them. Not even a single percent done yet :\'(

Hey folks, long time no see, well after the Crystal Blue update I couldn\'t download the client in under 48 hours (MB took almost 12 hours :P), though within the next two weeks I will be on broadband, and will be able to download the update in under two hours (:o). Well I thought I\'d just pop in to see who I remember and who remembers me (anyone? :( ), I guess I\'ll see you all in a couple weeks :D

The yellow and red hair are included in the 4 different color options, which you get to change during the character creation process. In MB, there are no restrictions against editing the default skins (which can be found in \\PlaneShift\\art\\textures\\races), but the modifications will be seen by you only - there is no utility to upload them to the server so that the other players may see your custom creations. Also, the changes you make will be seen not only on your own character, but every other character who chose the skin you\'ve edited.

Oh right, thanks.

Newbie Help (Start Here) / Editing Avatars/Skins

Are we allowed to edit the Avatars/skins of the races?
And if so, was there not somewhere to upload them to? I\'ve seen some dwarves with yellow and red hair.

That\'s what He said to me on IRC but I\'ll accept 200MB

Yeah, but you are talking about different schemes.
Seems Gronomist was talking about:
56k sends empty disc-> broadband makes copy on that one and sends disk back to 56k
That needs her estimated time.
Macabre Wolf seems to talk about:
broadband uses own disc to make copy and sends it to 56k -> 56k sends it back after install (and perhaps makes his own copy)

That depends on how you read it, I was reading it as if Gronomist was talking to the devs, you were reading as if gronomist was talking to someone that had downloaded CB.  It all depends on how you interpret the post.
So we\'ll leave it at that, or at least I will.

Macabre Wolf, Gronomist was referring to the person who will be receiving CB on cd, not the person copying CB onto a cd... your understanding of it makes no sense anyway... the person copying it, does not have to wait at all after downloading it.
Also where did you hear 600MB?

I know Gronomist was reffering to the person \'recieving CB on cd\' so was I.
I heard 600MB from acraig.

You can send all the cd\'s you want, you just can\'t charge for it. Not for the cd and not for spending time copying the game onto the cd. So if you intend to help people by making copies of CB for them, give them a mail address and have them send an envelope with a cd-r(w) or dvd-r(w) in that you can then send back. It\'s the best way to do it without charging anything, and it doesn\'t break the license. :)

Aside from that... No. Noone will let you charge for sending out cd\'s, and you unless you\'re really desperate or have a lot of money to waste, you shouldn\'t waste it on getting a cd. You need to remember that if you are going to recieve it from a foreign country, it can easily take 5-10 days before your mail arrives at his place, and then 5-10 days for him to send it back. That\'s 10-20 days where you can easily download the 200-250MB with a 56k (hevrah downloaded the first installer in less than 24 hours with his 56k, so it is possible).

Well actually it\'s only 5-10 days not 10-20 because you don\'t install it once they have the disk back, or I wouldn\'t, I\'d install it as soon as I get the disk. But I\'ve been told it\'s more like 600MB that\'d take about three days fully connected to the net to download, that means no phone calls or browsing the net. The latter would at least double the time to download so that\'s 6-8 days and that\'s without any problems with disconnecting at night, downloading problems, etc., so for people on 56k a disk is much easier.

This problem has been solved with the devs anyway.

...maybe you could at least fix the overheating problem ...but I\'m pretty sure you could find a kind soul here (maybe even a dev) to send you a copy on a CD via ordinary mail.


Yeah that\'s why I started this thread, but maybe word of it hasn\'t reached the devs yet. Not so sure about giving out my address to a \'kind soul\' though.


how about you ask them directly? probably better if you ask them to send you the CB release (when it comes out soon-ish)

irc server: irc.freenode.net
channel: #planeshift

on the side note: do you know what exactly causes the overheating? is it the graphic card or the processor? ...sometimes a small cooler/ventillator can do wonders ;)


IRC oh joy, I\'ll give it a try though.

It\'s not the computer that overheats I meant the adapter.

I can\'t get broadband because it is not available here. My school does have it but they don\'t allow us to download of the internet, incase of viruses, nevermind burning things onto CD\'s and as far as I know no-one that I know has a broadband connection. So there is a reason for all this talk.

And Mindari I can\'t leave this running overnight, becuase this computer overheats after about six hours, plus the last time I had to check back on it every hour because the download periodically stopped halfway through the file and I had to restart it.
