For those who can't properly play on the default world port (8085) because provider or network, public router, university is blocking we opened an alternative port to play through: 8089!

Usage: on the realmlist select the realm "Project Eden (8089) 3.3.5"

Have Fun!

Someone players still did not change his/her previous password! Take this serious and change it! Be sure your new password is between 4 and 15 characters long and not the same as your username, etc... make it secure!

Upgrading the internet connection at the server, can't say how long it will be down, but better follow forum on:

http://www.hardcore-stalkers.com/pe/ since if the net is off, this pc will be off too!

Update: the server is up again & running!

** new realmlist: pe-wow.net **

Finally everything goes fine, at least lets hope so!
I strongly suggest everyone to change password!

There will soon be an account cleanup, accounts matiching the following criteria will be deleted:
- not logged in for two years
- permanently banned
- short term accounts (time between creation and last login less than 4 weeks, and unused for 3 months)

For those who like to keep their account but don't have WoW to login, we made an option;
login on the website, go to "Account -> Overview" (default page after login) and refresh the last login date with the provided link.

Cleanup date: 22nd of August, 2010!

You will find Instance & Dungeon informations under "Server Info" menu in future!

As stated on the forum, our provider currently stopped hosting. The story is as follows:
- The server is in a server room, that our provider rented from another provider
- The renting contract ended, so the other provider cut off net (or power, dunno)
- TNS is back to vietnam, so he cant pick it up
- => KyK (seems like he is the new admin now, since only he has access to the machine because he works at the provider and is responsible for the hosting, from what i know) has to pick it up, bring it to another working server room and connect it to the net again, and tell us the new IP.
No idea when (and if ever) he will do it. We can just hope for the best now.

In the meantime Stormrage and I are setting up a temp server (which this website run on, currently). Currently setting up the system, installing MaNGOS, etc.

If the community decides they want a tempserver, we will open it for the public, with a database backup from tuesday, 1.5 days before the server went down.

A discussion can be found on the forum, WoW Chat section, and a poll in the polls section.

News will follow.

To all those who have sent me a PM and still didnt get an answer:
I was away for 2 weeks, and you cant imagine how many PMs i got during that time...
So justt hat you know, i havent forgotten about you, just probably didnt read your PM yet.
Be patient please, you will get an answer really soon :)


About dualspec:
This is not an official fix! I havent tested it much, but from what i can say it works.
However, i CAN NOT guarantee it is bug free, and should the MaNGOS devs decide to fix this another way it may become necessary to change the way dualspec is handled, which means:
- Another global talent reset
- 1000g lost for everyone who purchased it
- Other quirks and fuckups i dont even want to think about
This is probably the WORST CASE. Nobody knows what will really happen.
Up to you if you spend the 1000g or not.
Don't say you haven't been warned.

About vehicles support:
I was unable to test it because of the very old database on my testserver.
Good luck finding out what works and what not. :)
Don't expect too much!

A few other things:

Thx to Limitless for providing data for 28 Elixirs for Elixir Master (Outland & Northrend ones), Elixir masters now have a chance of creating additional Elixirs for these.

I have been asked countless times when we will upgrade to 3.2 - here is the answer: I cant tell. MaNGOS has a 3.2 branch and its working, but its not yet supported and not really stable. When i know more and can give a rought upgrade date, i will let you know. Dont ask for it, please.

I also finished my boss script that will be spawned very soon. ;)

PS: the usual stuff - play only when sober, dont insult others and have a nice day. :)
