What server are you trying to connect to? You'll need to download new maps and update your server.lst file. Just wait a few more days, I hear Korrode is making a handy dandy installer for windows users. Korr or Fallen will probably post a guide here soon when they are ready, they both have jobs and an rl and can be busy like us all :P

Copy this into your servers.lst in wherever you installed EL.
http://qelserv.quadronyx.org/serv/servers.lst  

Then; You will need these maps in your EL maps directory:
  (for Windows) http://qelserv.quadronyx.org/serv/qelserv-maps.20090412.zip
  (for Linux etc) http://qelserv.quadronyx.org/serv/qelserv-maps.20090412.tgz

next, it's best to make a shortcut or know how to use the "run" command.
  (for my XP box atm) "C:\Program Files\Eternal Lands\el.exe" qelserv-dev
basically it's "wherever you installed it\Eternal Lands\el.exe" spacethentheservernameyourtryingtoconnectohere
  (yes, when you click on properties on your el.exe or w/e, it will have the ' " ' where the target is, and then all you need to do is put a space and the target server after it)
  (say for EL's test server) "C:\Program Files\Eternal Lands\el.exe" test
the bolded, is the target server.

after that, if the server is up and available for current testing you'll be able to log in/make new char there using your forum name/pass. but seeing as it's being run off Krayon's ADSL atm he'll take it down every now and then when he hasn't got anything specific to test. I'm also not sure if only betawulf testers will be able to make a toon using their forum account/pass or normal forum users will be able also. I'll ask krayon to have a look at this thread though.

Generally when there's testing to be done, it's not very planned :-\  I generally just find some people who are around though the testing then usually lasts at least 8 hours for that session :P

If you would like to be informed, and you use Instant Messaging, feel free to add me to your roster thingy.  The most reliable and preferable is XMPP (also known as Jabber).  If you use gTalk and/or have a gmail account, this is what they use and you can simply add me using the XMPP ID below.  I also have transports running that allow my XMPP server to talk to other IM protocols and though these are not my preferred method, I will list them also:

  • XMPP: lefallen@jabber.quadronyx.com.au

(dodgy undesirable IM networks below)

  • AIM: lefallenx
  • MSN: thisaddressistaken@hotmail.com
  • ICQ: 309848807
  • Yahoo!: lefallenx

I will be coming up with a more reliable way of registering interest and being notified of testing etc at a later stage, but for now, just IM me your interest and I'll be sure to let you know ;)

MrGray!  I'm sorry! :S  If you give me some heads up as to when you'll be around, I might be able to need some testing done then ;)

This reminded me that the Yahoo and MSN transports on my XMPP server weren't working so after much effort, they are again now :)  BTW, if you don't use GoogleTalk / gmail Google IM, feel free to create an account on my XMPP server, see here for more info: http://quadronyx.com.au/jabber/

Well, as it happens next week I'm on call, which means working from home between the hours of 17:00 - 09:00 AEST (06:00 - 22:00 UTC).  I think we'll be able to find something to test during that time ;)

LIES!  Sorry guys I've been busy with work and WE (Korrode and I) have been doing some work on a friends website for her book launch.  Hopefully I'll finish my bit in the next 8 hours max and then I'll be back working on the server in say, 16 hours.  Hopefully :-\

It's probably not likely for the next 5 days or so however if the server IS online, it'll be sometime between 09:00 and 13:00 UTC as I'm working in the City normal business hours this week.

Korrode and Krayon are quite busy in RL atm, so QEL development might be slower for a while yet. Though tbc I highly the project will burn out so you've got nothing to worry about.
