Guest Report post Posted January 23, 2004 Hi ya'll I'll have a registred user here soon ( Zoram ) but just couldn't wait for the activation code before posting this. Fist off, I'm working night at a hoel reception and unfortunately we have firewall de la grande here. First I couldn't connect to the game couldn't find server on port 2000, so I switched the port to 80 then I got as far as the connection page. So I clicked new character. So far so good, but when I tried to type in my char name it wouldn't type out the letters I tried for like 30 mins but no luck, then I got pissed and held the key down, VOILA, then I wrote a letter. Well using this metod I got my username and password written down but then we got to the next problem: I couldn't press done. The mouse over kinda effect worked but nothing happened when I pressed the done button. So I used the back button to get to the log in screen and typed in like username, aragorn and password 1234 and then tried to connect, Nothing happened. Not even a "You have entered the wrong username/password" sign. What could possibly be wrong? I have a laptop ( 2,2 ghz, with an ATI card ). But since I get perfect gfx on the new character menu I don't think my gfx is a problem. If any1 has a clue on what could be wrong plz mail me or post it here ( mail: snurf@hotmail.com ) Thanks in advance / Daniel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grum Report post Posted January 23, 2004 Sounds like your video card doesn't support opengl, or you're not using accelerated drivers. What card is it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ril Report post Posted January 23, 2004 Perhaps you should try to change you ATI drivers to recent one .. that support OpenGL. But thinks it's not the problem. The other problem that could appear is the firewall ... the port 80 of the eternal land server give you some stats of the server ... so i think it's the main problem. The logon screen should be on you computer as far as i know the game So ... sorry ... try to aske someone with high bandwith server to create some TCP tunnel on port 80 for you that conenct to port 2000 of eternal lands server that should give you possibility to play.

Guest Report post Posted January 23, 2004 Well, I figured that would be the problem. :roll: Problem with my gfx drivers is that there isn't any new since a have a special portable card, and there's like one version in total with drivers for that card. Well well I have to try it when I get home in a week ( work one week at a ski resort and then home one week, that's why I wanted to solve it so I could play here ) Thx for all suggestions and help tho. / Daniel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted January 23, 2004 If you manage to install the OpenGL drivers for yuor card, it should work fine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
