Perhaps that\'s because you spawned at the bottom of it and you only see darkness around you.
Try the following, go to planeshift folder and edit updaterconfig.xml, search for active id and change it to active id= 3 That will ensure that the next time you launch the updater (once you\'ve saved the changes) it will try to use the 3rd mirror, which has proven to have a correct version of the deathrealm.
Are there any MoonSeekers left?

Yea he can see fine because i believe that i ran accross him while I was trying to find my way out... STILL in the death realm but my game crashed. Imperial I would suggest maybe searching through the newbie forum for a post explaining how to get out

If you ask me, the best and most \"realistic\" way to get out is to hook up with others in the DR who are more experienced with being dead. They may let you follow them out.

The probelm with that is that most experienced players don\'t end up in the Death Realm. Ususally it\'s the inexperienced ones that do. I must have asked 13 people roaming about for help on how to get out and they were just as clueless as I was.

If they do end up in the DR, they manage to run off and get out so quickly that it\'s impossible to ask them for help, much less follow them. I spent a good while in there before I gave up, deleted my character and started over. It\'s fustruating.

You can ask for help in the Help tab of your chat window, you can try to catch a GM and explain your (long-winded) dilemma, if nothing else works :) It\'s tough, but it\'s supposed to be. There are always ways to get out.

is it really necessary to post the answer to something (even though it\'s not a quest) when the players themselves are supposed to figure it out themselves? at most, offer a hint or let them follow you, but don\'t go around posting the answers everywhere. it just makes the game too easy and less realistic.

edit: ahh problem solved. darn you bereror! you beat me with the click of a mouse button. ^_^

and it\'s no trouble, nattuo. you didn\'t know, so no harm done. just for yourself and for other new players for next time: the game isn\'t meant to be easy, it\'s meant to be challanging. and if we told you, then it would make it far too easy.

besides, challanges makes men from mice. *flexes silly girl muscles*

Meet my chara when the server is back up and i\'ll show u way out. And if you\'re captured in the bottom, try to type /die  and if that doesn\'t work, delete and restart your character.

Deleting shouldn\'t be necessary at all unless there is a serious DB mix-up or something similar. Being stuck somewhere is definitely not a good reason. You can always ask a GM to move you.
