Is the Realm Offline?
Is the Realm Offline?
I have been trying to login for about 40 minutes now but it keeps saying its not able to connect, is it offline? The server status tool says its up, but the note on the login screen says there are restarts today, so I'm confused.

Re: Is the Realm Offline?
Which realm are you talking about? PrimalWoW (Vanilla) or TrueWoW (WotLK)?
Either way both realms are online. I just logged onto TrueWoW with no problems.

Re: Is the Realm Offline?
I didn't realize there were 2 - True WoW. I just finished downloading the bit torrent file a little while ago. I've made a forum account and also created a game login account under the account manager, which I linked to the forum account. I launched the game from the wow.exe file but the login doesn't work - are there instructions somewhere for this? I'm getting nowhere =/

Re: Is the Realm Offline?
You have to enter your game account name where it asks for your e-mail and your password where it asks for password.
Try this thread http://www.truewow.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=92&t=12340 to search for answers.
Also it would be helpful if you described everything in detail what happens. When you open wow.exe do you see Sindragosa landing, does it ask you to patch? Do you have the realmlist set correctly? When you enter your credentials what is the message that pops up?

Re: Is the Realm Offline?
To avoid conflicts with any other versions of the game I have, I downloaded the full folder off this site. I'm launching from the wow.exe file that was included in that folder, with the realmlist file that also came with it - it says: set realmlist login.truewow.org
I am not using the launcher file. Yes I see Sindy landing with the usual roaring noise and the typical login screen music from WotLK is playing. I enter the account name for the game account I created, not the forum account, and the password I made. The error message states "Unable to connect. Please try again later. If the problem persists, please contact technical support."

Re: Is the Realm Offline?
thank you for the link but unfortunately that thread/topic is of no help.

Re: Is the Realm Offline?
Hmm, seems you're doing everything right then.
If you're on Windows, try opening the Command Prompt (Windows key + R and type cmd.exe and press ENTER) and in command prompt type "ping login.truewow.org" or "tracert login.truewow.org" and see if you can reach the login server.
Seems like a connection issue.

Re: Is the Realm Offline?
as stated, those have been checked.Nephyx wrote:Hello,
also be sure your realmlist is set correctly. You can find your realmlist in: WoW/Data/enGB/Realmlist.wtf
Open it in notepad and be sure inside is only:If it is set like this, try to open WoW.exe and be sure that you are logging in with your in-game account name and password(the one you created inside your account manager), not forum account or e-mail.set realmlist login.truewow.org
one thing I did notice tho is that the default Data folder I received is enUS not enGB - is this important?

Re: Is the Realm Offline?
It does not matter, it is just different language version. As long as you have the correct realmlist, it should work.
Please try to also double check your config.wtf (found at "../World of Warcraft/WTF" folder) file and make sure it's also set to "login.truewow.org".

Re: Is the Realm Offline?
ah hah - we may be on to something. there is no section in the config.wtf for login - can you please tell me what to add? here is what it currently has listed:Nephyx wrote:It does not matter, it is just different language version. As long as you have the correct realmlist, it should work.

SET locale "enUS"
SET timingTestError "3"
SET hwDetect "0"
SET gxWindow "1"
SET gxResolution "1680x1050"
SET gxRefresh "60"
SET gxMultisampleQuality "0.000000"

SET showToolsUI "1"
SET Sound_OutputDriverName "System Default"
SET Sound_MusicVolume "0.40000000596046"
SET Sound_AmbienceVolume "0.60000002384186"
SET farclip "727"
SET specular "1"
SET groundEffectDensity "24"
SET projectedTextures "1"
I tried adding:
SET login.truewow.org"
to the end - but that didn't fix the problem. Also you may want to update your download file, since I did get the config.wtf from your downloader - assuming this is the culprit anyway.

Re: Is the Realm Offline?
After the SET locale "enUS", type in following on new line:
Not sure if this will help as this is set after you login but let's try.
Code: Select all
SET realmList "login.truewow.org"
Re: Is the Realm Offline?
Do you have any software such as PeerBlock/PeerGuardian running, that could block certain connections? (Although I doubt it's the case, since it probably would have blocked the ping too). Maybe your firewall is program-based and blocking your WoW.exe from opening connections?
Re: Is the Realm Offline?
Although you're saying your pings go through and receive answers, try adding wow.exe (that specific one in your TrueWoW WoW folder) to a firewall exception. "Unable to connect" usually means there's connection/network issues. Although it does seem strange that your ICMP requests go through. If your config.wtf file contains the line "SET realmList "login.truewow.org"" and your realmlist.wtf file contains only "set realmlist login.truewow.org" you should be able to connect.

i cross-referenced your suggestion with how the other server I was on has it listed and it looks like you should be correct, too.
