I gave you some other things to try to see if you can connect to the Eternal Lands server outside of the EL client. You'll see the tests described in the post where I quoted Usl.

Well, let's just verify that your computer is unable to connect to the game server for starters, outside of the EL client. Borrowing from another post here... Also, to try and identify what, if any, additional firewall software you have installed and running, you can hover your mouse over the icons in the system tray (near the clock in the bottom right) and make note of the names of applications that are running. You can also browse your start menu to see what might be installed.

To my knowledge, AVG does not block outgoing connections. If you're running something like ZoneAlarm or Norton Internet Security, you might have to authorize every application that tries to access the internet. Any idea what firewall software you are running?

100k for the ELE

Rather than replace the harvester medallion, why not purchase a reasonably priced shop item that acts like a saving stone of sorts for the existing medallion - e.g. it poofs instead of your medallion. That could generate recurring revenue for the shop and support the game, it addresses the issue of confusion over similar items (or scamming) and still allows for demand for crafted medallions.

I don't understand how the chmod command would've worked then. Are you certain you are in the right directory? You can do a ls *.bin to see if the binaries are there.

Did you try ./el.x86.linux.bin or just el.x86.linux.bin The current directory, . , is not always in the path so you have to prepend the name of an executable with ./

Poor man is just a "group toggle" that disables a number of video options so Shadows & Reflections are already off. I'd still try reducing viewing distance. Also, a quick google for "ubuntu gma 4500m" led me to this Intel Graphics Performance Guide on the ubuntu forums.

I'm not sure about updating your drivers, but have you tried the basics to improve performance yet? Try disabling shadows and reflections (Ctrl+O > Details tab) and reducing Maximum Viewing Distance (Ctrl+O > Adv Video tab.)

If you can at least get to the login/character creation screen, you can click the Options button, select the Adv. Video tab and toggle off "Use Animation Program" as an alternative to trying to find the el.ini file.

The game is beta so we are all inherently testers, no? Comparing a single server side developer deploying features in a beta game/product to a production development environment with QA/test staff is silly, but do go on, please.

Just the sounds, not the music. I like the environmental sounds in particular and have the crowd sounds turned all the way down - those were annoying. I play my own music as I'm sure most do.

Welcome to the Willowvine Skill Academy. You walk down the stairs, and feel your summoning ability increase. Works now, thank you.

I'll take the first bit at your starting price of 29k

Yes, already posted in this thread.

100% agree with this. Even if you don't burn all your helm ings, it's pretty hard to resist triple xp for at least some of them on schools day. I try to keep a few in stock for just such an occasion.

I think it's the other way around, that plate mail would likely stop an arrow but chain mail would not. Even plate at close range would not stop cross bow bolts. It would probably depend on the arrow head. Also even if the chain mail stopped the arrow, there might be enough blunt force trauma to still break bones. Reality doesn't need to have any bearing on EL though. I like the idea of having some form of protection against rangers however, and the concept that you'd sacrifice protection from other attacks by wearing say chain mail or w/e to protect against range attacks.

You're getting ahead of yourself; we didn't guess the last one yet.

Yeah I like the a/d daily, thank you. I'll be doing that quest regularly.
