Is there a difference between the Test server and the Public Test server? I was trying to hop on to the Test server to test the new Erollisi day content, but the only option I get is Public Test on the drop down menu.
When you start the launcher, use the drop-down menu in the upper left and select Public Test. then click APPLY button just underneath that drop-down menu. After it has patched, do NOT select a character, just launch to the character select screen, sometimes choosing a character you have on test server and haven't logged in recently, causes an error.
I did that, Kuulei. I have one character on Test that I made a while ago. She showed up, but I got a message that the server was offline.
I was JUST there. I don't know why you are getting that... ... unless you are trying to log into Public BETA rather than TEST
That's what I was going to suggest Kuulei. I don't know if Beta is up atm but Test has been working fine.
Is there some new magical way to access Test? Some Special download, etc.? I have not been able to get onto test for months. The game always crashes at the character select screen. I have characters on Test and know the difference between Test and Beta and have not selected any characters to log into.
Nothing new or different that I know of to access test since they put out the newest launcher. I just select test from the list of server types & let it patch whatever is different & log on just like I do on my live servers.
I just checked, I have DirectX 11. It would be odd for EQ2 to require an older version, but then it wouldn't surprise me either.
Did you copy over the two D3D<blah>.dll files? That is what fixed it for some folks...I wrote up what worked for me in this thread; with luck, it may help [or at least get you closer]. Crossing fingers...
Thank you so much !!!!! Copying the DLL files solved my problems Your fix should definitely be stickied somewhere
