PK server started!

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I had a small idea, if we get enough votes could we not wipe the server in 2 weeks? I mean it's fun testing but people would probably not play due to char wipe =/

 

just idea

 

but all in all i like it

 

#edit another idea

 

How about an entire topic for pk server? for like market posts etc etc ;)

 

and could we get a highest players list for like top 10-20 for pk serv?

 

-Q

Hi,

 

i paid for 2 accounts. I would like to name them Shodan and Nidan ;)

 

(i dont know if Nidan was already on the list, but when i try to make a new one with that name the client just stops after i am done with creation, and after that Nidan still doesnt exist)

 

 

Done now.

No way.

This is a very preliminary test, not everything works, not all the adjustments are done.

 

 

You must create a new character there, nobody exists otherwise.

I think he means when he clicks done the second time on the char create screen EL closes. same thing happening to me, just figured my transaction to buy the char wasnt processed yet.

 

Name is 1st_Warrior, right?

It was processed, let me know if you have problems logging in.

thats why u pay in advanced, which was the point in paying at first...
Actually, I believe paying in advance was to prove to Entropy that some people were interested enough in a PK server to put up some money.

Alright, so i know the question of how to access the pk server has been answered already, change el.exe but does anyone know how to do that on a mac?

You don't change el.exe, you start the client with the additional parameter of pk. Under Linux and Windows, that invovles making a new shortcut and assin a space and pk outside of the quotes to the end of the commands line. There should be something similar in Mac's

But you don't know specifics? because I've tried everything similar to whats directed for windows, and nothing works

IIRC the command is #stats :D

Exactly. #stats shows you how many players are connected. On the main server it's next to useless because of the bots. But here it shows you real players currently, as there are no bots yet.

Can i pay with a Debit card and if so where and how?

 

Yes, Paypal accepts debit cards too.

 

Enly: I don't know how things work on mac, but if you can open a console, go to the fodler/directory where EL is installed, and start the client with pk in the command line.

Maybe you can send a PM to Florian and ask him how to do that.

Is the plan of removing some negative perks still coming through, cause I think perks were the same as before :D .

Everything is same as b4 except for the PK part. Even C2 is still there.

im a n00b - how do i buy a char? the above paypal link on EL shop page? do i just have to say the char name(s) i want and send the money?

 

Yes, write something in the message line there like "account XXX on PK server".

 

Works like charm, it took radu less than one hour to activate my account :D

 

Then you have to make a new char there with the name mentioned in that message line and thats it. Youre in and can start to die :D

one "bug" - youre forced to read the rules at the beginning which are the same as the main server rules

 

i think we need rule 5 to be clarified for PK server, even if only on the forums

 

#edit - another bug maybe - iirc IP and its insides were supposed to be safe. the secret basement in the tavern is PK

 

#edit2 - another bug - you can beam in PK maps which arent pk on main, eg votd, but cant beam on pk maps which are also pk on main, eg KF

The IP insides are not supposed to be safe, but we might make the tavern safe.

As for the rules, that's because of the client, the rules are different on the PK server:

 

1. Don't macro

2. Don't be really nasty (especially on channels)

3. No unapproved clients.

4. Don't try to hax people.

 

Rules that apply on the main server but don't apply here:

1. Multiplaying is OK.

2. You can go off topic on the channels, unless until there are like 100+ players playing at once.

3. More permissive language.
