System Requirements
To run our game, you'll need to make sure you have the following:

Getting to Cloudopolis
In order to get to Cloudopolis, you must travel via the airship in Cantermore!

If you're in Cantermore, travel up the cliff to the airship port and board your way onto the airship.

If you're starting in Ponydale, you must first go to the train station and travel to Cantermore, and then go to the airship port.



Getting to Cantermore
In order to get to Cantermore, you must travel via train from Ponydale or via airship from Cloudopolis!

If you're in Ponydale, you must travel via train. The train station is just past Sugarcane Corner.

If you're in Cloudopolis, go to the airport located high up and to the right of the main cloud.



Getting to Ponydale
If you'd like to visit the quaint little town of Ponydale, you must go by train from Cantermore.

If you're in Cloudopolis, go to the airport and get to Cantermore.

Once you're in Cantermore, simply go to the train station by by Astral Charm.



Questing
Plenty of NPCs (Non-Player Characters) need help with their tasks! Some give out special prizes if you lend them a helping hoof!

Go up to any NPC, right click, and select "Talk." NPCs have a "..." over their name.

Listen to what they have to say, and be sure to follow their instructions in order to move on in the quest.

At the end, you might get a reward for your kindness!



Battling
Watch out when going to the Evershade Forest! It's home to some scary monsters!

In order to defend yourself against the creatures you'll encounter, try using your special combat abilities!

Earth Ponies have Seismic Buck and Rough Terrain, Unicorns have Rainbow Fields and Magical Arrow, and Pegasi have Dual Cyclone and Gale! All three races have Ground Pound.

When ready, select a creature, a target reticule should appear. Attack the mob by getting in their range and selecting your skill.

When the enemy's health gets to zero, they'll faint! Don't worry though, I'm sure they can just walk it off.



Parties
If you want to form a party with other players, you can right-click them and add them to your party!

Parties are useful for going out and exploring. You never know when you might run into monsters, and there is always safety in numbers!



Trading
Do you have an interesting item that you'd like to give to a friend? Well, you can trade them!

Simply right click on your friend and hit "Trade." The other pony needs to accept your trade for it to continue.

Once accepted, you'll see a screen. Left click and add the item to the trading menu.

When both players are satisfied with the trade, they both must hit "Ready." When both players hit "Ready," a "Done" button will appear. Once both players hit the "Done" button, the trade will be completed.



Stuck Somewhere?
Have no fear! No need to call the moderators! Simply type /stuck or unstuck me and you will be moved to the starting point of the map. (This will not work if you are in combat.)

Not long left, everyone!

You only need to download one file, if you're using Windows, you can use the 32bit version regardless, but if you're computer is 64 bit, then you should probably still download the 64 bit version.

If you're downloading from Google Drive, click on the zip file you want to download and then there should be a little arrow in the bottom right corner, click that.

Hello there! :)

You only need to download the build that is for your computer. If you are on a Windows computer, download the Windows build. (If you need to know if you are x64 or x86, click on the Start button, right-click on Computer, click on Properties. Under System, it should tell you your operating system. If you still don't know you can just go with x86!)

If you are on a Macintosh (Apple) computer, download the Macintosh build.

If you are on a Linux system, download the Linux build.

Nope! If you downloaded the .zip, you can just open the .zip file, pull out all the files into a new folder on your computer, and then you're done.  ^-^

You don't need to get the torrent versions, they're mainly for when the other versions are downloading slowly due to heavy traffic

When it comes to extracting the files that some extractors or settings may not properly retain the folder hierarchy the game files are in.  So if the extraction leaves a bunch of files in a single folder the game will not work.

Anyway, it seems to work so far on my computer. I'm pretty much ready for tomorrow.

Hello! The x86 version is for 32 bit.

Petrasilva, Ajdrianpony:

The x86 version is what you want for a 32-bit version of Windows. Download that one!

Hello.

I have windows 8.1, 64 bits. I tried both x86 and x64, and both seems works correctly. There is only one minnor bug that I feel I should report it and appear to me in both versions.

This minor bug consist in the GUI option, after you click on it Option --> GUI (not Option -> Controls -> GUI), The return button doesn't work. It does the animation of clicking, but doesn't do anything. This mean that you are forced to restart the game, since there is no way to remove the window option of the GUI.

I asked my friend that own Windows 7 x32, and use x86. For him, it works perfectly and doesn't have this bug.

I downloaded it but when I bring it up, it has a black screen that says "powered by Unity" before going to a completely blank pink screen. Is it supposed to do that? Will it automatically change and actually show something once the server is open for play tomorrow?

First check if you GPU drivers are up to date, I don't recommend to overclock the GPU if it is weak, if it doesn't help try to download different bit version of the game, or if it's still doesn't help, then you need to change graphics settings via "nVidia control panel" or "ATI AMD catalyst panel".

I'm going to be completely honest here. I have no idea how to check my GPU drivers. I have no idea what "nVidia control panel" or "ATI AMD catalyst panel" are or how to access them. I am not very tech savvy at all.

Will it work once the servers are up?

It runs IntelHD graphics 4000 series which in this case is APU "Accelerated Processing Unit" and your laptop APU will be struggling with this game, I don't want you to go to BIOS and tweak up video shared memory with no experience especially, the next is, locate in system tray IntelHD graphics panel/  right click on it/ Properties or settings.
There you should find a power balance and set it to performance/high performance because at ballanced mode the APU is 40% usable.

You need to seek for help, I'm sorry, but I have almost no experience with Mac, but the game crashes on your Mac PC

It runs IntelHD graphics 4000 series which in this case is APU "Accelerated Processing Unit" and your laptop APU will be struggling with this game, I don't want you to go to BIOS and tweak up video shared memory with no experience especially, the next is, locate in system tray IntelHD graphics panel/  right click on it/ Properties or settings.
There you should find a power balance and set it to performance/high performance because at ballanced mode the APU is 40% usable.


Ok, I put the power balance at maximum performance. I tried going into the game again but it still shows the blank pink screen.


What version of the game have you downloaded? And do you have skype?


I do have Skype, and I have downloaded the "86 build for 32 bit" one.

Once you're done adding each other go ahead and blank out the Skype name.

The biggest problem with laptop GPUs is that the drivers needed for them are generally tailored for that laptop model/series only.  Generic drivers from the hardware manufacturer (i.e. in this case Intel) may disable certain parts of the hardware including those that have switchable graphics.

GeekBAH and I have same IntelHD graphics 4000 series, the only problem is the laptop it self manufacturer that for GeekBAH has set dedicated memory on 32MB while mine has dedicated 512MB and runs smooth. Same OS

I think my GPU is working with about 1.5GB of memory, but I'm not sure on that. Will this suffice for running this game smoothly? Should I turn the settings down a bit?

Also, I'm playing on a laptop that tends to overheat. Should I expect trouble?

Just a question about the download versions:
The 64 bit direct download is RC2, while the torrent/magnet link is named RC1 - would both of these work and is there any difference to know about?

I've tried twice now to get the RC2 direct download but both times it failed on the last MB (Most likely just the server being very busy), but am not sure whether the torrent version would still work since it's an earlier release candidate

I'm having the same problem as FiraPen, it says that too many people have downloaded the file... I guess it's no big deal, seeing as after 24 hours, the file SHOULD be available again, or according to the website it said it would. Though it would be awesome if it became available before that.

Windows 7 64-Bit

Intel Celeron M 900 Single-Core 2.2 Ghz

Some Unity games run fine, but most have low frame rate on the system.

I was also wondering if characters made with the pony creator can be ported to the full game with the PonyCodes.

You can do what ManeFlame said to look up your specific OS, but 32bit(x86) works for both 32 and 64 bit windows so if you're not sure just get the 32 bit version.

Im new to LOE, but i know you should try to get RC2, RC1 is most likelly outdated.


RC = Release Candidate. The 2nd one should be the up to date version. Though tbh i dont know why in that case the OP has a magnet link to an outdated version.

128 MB GPU is very low, but you could try to run it. But such a low GPU on a 64 bit architecture makes no sense.. Worse comes to worse try the 32 bit (x86) download.

The computer was actually running a 32-Bit version of Windows Vista, but the old hard drive died and I installed Windows 7 64-Bit on the new one.

Would the CPU still be good? It's actually pretty fast for a single-core.

Well, my brother just said if that doesn't pan out, I could just use his beast system, and that should be fine.

The specs are...

Windows 7 64-Bit

AMD FX Eight-Core CPU at 3.8 GHz

8 GB DDR3 1600 MHz RAM

Radeon HD 6670 2GB GPU

Here is a link to a rough estimate of minimum computer requirements to play the game

Now as you can see this hasn't been updated since June last year so keep that in mind when looking at them.

http://forum.legendsofequestria.com/index.php?topic=2189.0

As for ponycodes, any ponies made during the last OSW with the pony creator around that time wont work, and the databases are all wiped after every test so ponycodes made now won't work next OSW or at full release.

Repeating the same thing wont get any of us anywhere. The development team obviouslly knows this. They might be doing last minute work, or having some difficulties. Or there asleep. Franklly when i hear " game is lauching on friday" i wasnt thinking 12:01 AM, more like 7 in the morning. But again im new here so maybe its just me. Regardless demanding stuff from people making something for you is rude. Patience is a virtue. Sit tight, relax, watch something on youtube or on tv, play something. Just relax. Yelling it aint working and "fix it" wont get anyone anywhere.

Try downloading the 64 bit version if you're running 64 bit windows, if you're running 32 bit the 64 bit client wont work
Otherwise try redownloading the file and extracting the files from the zip into it's own folder

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I NEED A FIX, I literally worked nonstop today just to get the day off tomorrow and to stay up later tonight to play the game. :(


Somewhere in your library there should be a folder for LoE with a settings cfg file among other things
try deleting that folder and run the game again

(Sorry I know nothing about Macs)

Nova i'm looking into your error now

Try to run as an administrator.  I had login and connection issues and that fixed it for me

Nova I can't seem to figure out why you'd be getting that error.  It sounds like my error(i'll see if 404 pops up for me withour running as admin) and running as admin worked for me

This bug was in the old 64bit version you are correct.  I'm not sure if they can fix it as fast this time so I recommend downloading the 32bit version of the client

My own status is still waiting for loe server connection after choosing server. Ive relaunched the game but to no additional avail. I have no explicit 404 message.

What they mean is right click the application and one of the options says "Run as Administrator". I don't actually know if it has anything to do with the accounts on your computer, but see if that works. As far as I can tell I won't be able to get the game working for me anytime soon

Hio,
so i probably tried to download the 64 + 86 bit versions of your game multiple times.

When unpacking it always says the file is either damaged or has an unknown format.
Any suggestions?

I didn't have any problems with downloads the last time you had a free week....

Hi there, LOE crew. I have a issue with the game that is really nagging me. I got the Windows X86 Build version since it seems that you got some issues with the versions covering Windows 32 and 64 bit and when i tried unpacking the X86 version in WinZip, it said that the compressed file couldn`t be unpacked or something like that. Could you perhaps help me out here, because it really annoys me that i cant get to play such a amazing game. Hope it can help you to get these issues fixed.

Then take a screen shot of the window with Command ⌘+Shift+4 and attach the image here.

Okay, I've been running the x64 version for today, and have encountered numerous glitches in it: Ponydale loading with almost no textures whatsoever, Cantermore missing a few textures, which made it look very odd, and random crashes. I've decided to try the x86 version, but as my internet is of potato quality, I'm pulling a file download of around 10 Kb/s. It'll do this for about 5 minutes until it decides "Eh, I give up. Close enough. Look Alchemist, it's done~!" and I'm left with a .zip that I cannot open. I noticed that there is no torrent or magnet link for the x86 version. Does anypony feel generous enough to host it as a torrent, or does anypony have a mirror for it? Because with how my internet's being, it'll never get downloaded at this point.

I will help~!
1. Download the x84 bit (x36 bit)
2. Open the downloaded file on WinZip
3. Right click the entire un-opened and select "Extract"
4. Extract the file to your desktop
5. Open the extracted file on your desktop and double click "loe.exe"
6. ENJOY!

If you have any problems, here's what I've figured out:
IF you get pink rotating squares, delete all the downloaded files and ask Warglebargle for the Babscon mirror link.
IF you get the screen after the log-in where it says it's downloading some things and at the bottom "Item Atlas Downloaded", exit, and log in with pass saved.
IF it just logs on forever, completely exit the game (Background and all) and re-start is as an administrator.
If that doesn't work, log out and log in again without selecting "Save Password"

Hope this helped~!

Fo the people who have the "Too many people have downloaded this file" problem.
There is no fix.
It's simply a lot of ponies want to download the game.

For the people with the

"Sever Listing
Cutiemarks: Downloading
Items: Downloading
Abilities: Downloading
Skills: Downloading
Recipes: Downloading
Item Atlas: Done"

Problem, log out and log back in without selecting "Save Pass".
If that doesn't work, completely exit the game and re-enter as an administrator.
But still don't use the "Save Pass", it's glitchy.

I'm able to download but it fails, is the problem caused by my computer or something else?

ummmm..... The one for Macintosh won't let me open the app because it's not from the Mac App store and not from an identified developer..? Can anyone fix it for me?

Well you can probably fix it somehow, but the game is closed now so... it would be a waste of time

Possible way to fix, just like on AnDroid smartphones, not sure if that works for Mac :example: Allow unknown sources, but for better solution I'd suggest to contact who works better with Mac, still seeking for a patch to allow Mac OS to be installed on my hardware.
