I can't log in to the game. I can log in fine to the Forum and to my account on the web. Yes, I have DL:d the new settings.xml file to the DS directory. I have tried both my account name (PimpFather, which I guess should be used here) and my E-mail. I don't get any errormessage, which previously happened when I mistyped my password, it just very quickly says "Contacting Master Server" and then I am back to the Log in screen. What am I doing wrong?

You're probably not contacting the right master server. Are you sure you created system folder to your Dawnspire folder, and dropped the .xml file there?

Hmm... found a clue perhaps. I am running on 64-bit Vista, and in my Dawnspire directory I donīt have any system directory, but I do have a system32 directory. Normally I have had the settings.xml file in the dawnspire directory, not the system32, and that worked fine before. Moving the settings.xml file in to the system32 does not help, then it doesn't read the file (the file is read fine in the dawnspire directory). Creating a system directory and moving the file there does not work either - gives a depressing wrong pkg version error. Moving the files in the system32 directory to the system directory with the settings file and deleting the system32 directory gives the same result.

It should be placed in the system folder. But if it does not work then open prelude.pkg with winrar and replace the settings.xml in it.

Ahhh, now it is working. Don't know what I did wrong. But now the file is in a new system directory, and it works fine. Perhaps I mixed up the different settings.xml files somewhere...

I run 64-bit Vista aswell, but creating system folder worked right away for me.
