Once you have met all of the system requirements, you can download and install the
game files. The first step is to create a free account.
-
Visit the
registration page to create
an account and create the character you wish to play.
The next step is to
download
and install the game lounge. The game lounge will allow you to chat
with other players and enter each version of the game.
-
Create a folder such as c:\FWFiles and unzip the files there. Do not unzip the files
directly to your desktop; it will cause errors in running the game.
-
After unzipping the files, open the c:\FWFiles directory and right click on LoungeClient.exe.
-
Scroll down to the "Send To" menu and choose the "desktop" option. This will create
a shortcut icon and enable you to start the game from your desktop.
-
To enter the game, click on the LoungeClient shortcut on your desktop.
To start the lounge, double-click on your desktop icon. You'll
use the lounge to play the game from here on out.
- On the ForgottenWorld Lounge login screen, enter your account name and password.
- Click "Login".
- Select one of your characters from the list of available names.
- Select which server you'd prefer to use.
- Live Server: This is the production game and data. This is the main play server.
- Test Server: Before we put changes on the live server, we will put them here to
test. Feel free to play on the test server to help us test fixes and new features.
Due to the nature of testing, all test server characters and data are subject to
changes or deletion.
Click "Enter".
You'll enter the lounge at this point.
Click on "Update Game".
The Auto-updater will check to make sure you have the most recent game files. This
can take some time, depending on your connection.
Once the files are updated, the Log-in Screen will pop up. Your account name, password,
and character name should already be typed in.
Click "Login".
If the information you entered is correct, the End User License Agreement will pop
up. PLEASE READ THE LICENSE AGREEMENT BEFORE CLICKING "YES"!
Once you accept the License Agreement, the "Notices" screen will appear. These are
important messages from Kevin and Rod and should be read each time you enter the
game. Please make sure to take a moment to read them completely.
Once you click the accept button on the Notices, the option to play the game is
available.
