    If, for some reason you can't get a Beta Key somewhere (I think there are some still available - someone else at PWE help me here please), you will be able to get in the Open Beta in a few weeks.

    all beta keys in MMORPG website are given away not even one (at least now no key left last time I checked) left so if you didn't get before you don't have chance to play closed beta and what admin tryed to say that in open beta you don't need beta key cuz its open for everyone plus characters in closed beta most likely gona get delated so if you lookin just to play game its better you start in open beta hehe

    Its not a joke.

    I tried to solve it for couple hours now :] and i made it.

    Patched like 7 computers right now.


    To download patch without problem do THIS:
    enter ur game folder etc.
    C:\pwi\Perfect World International\element\data

    DELETE element.data or tasks.data (basicaly u need to delete file that is blocking the download)

    start the patcher and chose restart download ...

    DONE ^^

    GL and HF in game

    ps. im not 100% sure about that so comment this plz. 7/7 computers was patched

    Seems I'm not the only one with the "Unable to Connect to Server" problem...

    Which means my college isn't blocking it...?

    They could be... not all server connection problems have the same cause. :)

    If your college is blocking traffic through port... hmm... 29000, then that could definitely give you this error.

    That port... could the patcher issue be related to that? Ryuuzaki, could you tell me how to unblock that port on my computer, if it's blocked?

    I think it might be related.. Though we need the port name and # to unblock it

    I only had partial success with the file deletion method. Elements.data did update after i moved the file out, but then it just snagged on tasks.data. I tried moving that out but the update just freezes on that.

    It really seems to be stuck on tasks.data... I think everyone with patch issues got stuck on elements.data at some point or another, but most of us have at least been able to reach tasks.data, then nothing.

    Maybe we should bring this to the other thread? The Admins seem to be more active over there.

    This was the first time the update moved past elements.data for me, so it certainly seemed noteworthy at the time. ;) But if tasks.data is as solid a barrier as you suggest, then maybe it was as small a victory as I was fearing. I would attempt to reinstall and then just try the whole thing over again with elements and tasks pre-deleted, to see if that makes any difference, but I greatly fear losing what little ground I've made since this whole beta thing started.

    Yeah, I know what you mean... Each time I reinstalled, I got stuck back on elements.data again for quite a while. Progress is painful so far... but it seems like those of us who have been able to get past tasks.data got into the game after that, for the most part. :/

So i went to FileFront, and got in in 4hrs, SUCCESS! no corruption, go to install and update SUCCESS!! no problems. However, I got to log-in, FAIL!! I changed password, and still FAIL!!!

    Can somebody please help me, I played this game on the MY server and loved it, since a US one came out, I figured Id switch. Thanks in advance.

    After finding a fix for the buff_str patch problem, I got the game to open. When I try to login, it says "unable to connect to server". My firewall is completely turned off. Any help?

    Hi, Uhm a friend of mine is having a very weird situation concerning being banned apparently form Texas location. He is unable to access game and the website to login and change his account without getting a notice that replies with "You are trying to access through a region that is outside our licensed area" or something to that degree.

    He then tried to access the game and site to change his password through a proxie and with no success as he is still getting the same thing. He lives in a residential area so no compus, no apartments, so on.

    We have went through the list given and still nothing. Hes a duck out of the water and wondering why he was banned, when hes in the USA and no reason for a outside region ban is a bit weird, makes believe this could very well be a bug?

    Need some help form staff even if its a "wtf?"! Thanks in return! If you need more nfo feel free to post Im watching this thread carefully!

    Additional NFO:

    His forum name is Shru
    He couldnt spell hacker, let alone be one.
    He isnt exactly handsome, but hes not ugly either!
    He enjoys long walks on a short leash!
    Turn ons are Games,Virtual women!
    Turn offs are goat fetishes!

    If I think of anything else Ill post it!

    Wow, this game has given me a lot problems even before I made a character. I hope this thread isn't being ignored; I have had a lot of patience with PWI so far, and I'm about to forget about the whole thing.
