Title: One Week Away!
Post by: Ellowee on 2014 Apr 11, 13:30:52

Hello everyone!
I just wanted to remind you that the Open Server Weekend is coming up a week from today, on April 18th-20th! The game will be available to play that entire weekend.

The servers will open to the public at 12:01am EST on April 18th and close at 11:59pm on the 20th. The game will be available through the downloads page here: http://www.legendsofequestria.com/downloads. The game will be available for download on the 17th but the servers will not open until the 18th at 12:01 am EST. Please note that you must have a forum account before you can log in to the servers. It is highly suggested that you register before the 18th, as the servers will be very busy once the weekend starts!
If you don`t have an account already, you can register here: http://forum.legendsofequestria.com/index.php?action=register

You can see the system requirements for Legends of Equestria here: http://forum.legendsofequestria.com/index.php?topic=2189.0

The Open Server weekend will coincide with our panel at BABSCon, 2014. Learn more about our BABSCon panel and game room here: http://forum.legendsofequestria.com/index.php?topic=10534

Hope to see you there!

I got lucky. My current semester of college just ended and now I am completely free all day on the 18th.

How lucky am I?  :D

Anyway...

Will you be posting another thread for us to post our livestreams, etc. again Ellowee?

Gotta buy a decent new keyboard, and now have the perfect excuse to myself.

Won't be able to enjoy the game to its fullest without it, and running out of time fast! Must make my way to the shops...

Forgive me if this has been mentioned anywhere else, but is there any kind of change log as to what may have been worked on between last open server and this one? I've drawn a blank

So, it's only one day now. For some reason, I was under the impression that it will begin on Saturday (even though it started on Friday, last time too). Well, I'm ready, now that I have a more decent computer.

Are the old characters still saved? I got a fondness for the, admittedly rather monotonous, pegasus mare I made last time.
(http://i.imgur.com/FNSKNJ5.jpg)

Although knowing myself, I'll probably make a new one anyway...

My guess is that they're using the wrong DST setting (or just forgot  :o). (Almost) worst-case is that it'll be up in an hour.

For Windows this folder will be in appdata/locallow

So new to this. OK I have the 64 bit version. Have not been able to log in to the game.  It is the 18th. This should be working.
Is the 64 bit program not working? I am trying to download the 32 bit setup, as some have said that one works. I guess do to the game in use by others, the download said it will take 2 hr to finish. Well, time will tell if it works.

I've only had around that same time.

You didn't miss much, Servers kept lag spiking and kicking everyone off from what I experienced. Either one of the new things added messed up game stability or the server(s) internet was performing WAY bellow standard.
