You need to grab the installer and run it. You do not to uninstall. Just download the installer and run it. If you have a problem logging in with your account, please submit a ticket to the support site. http://support.urulive.com/

Because of the vault wipe you will need to create a new avatar.

Thank you for your patience,

I can't seem to get logged in. But I thought that the update wouldn't be posted to the servers for a while. I'm confused. Could that be why my account won't log in? Or am I really having a problem that needs to be reported to support?
Thanks,

The update started at about 4 pm yesterday PST, midnight UK, and finished four hours later. What problem are you having?

I updated and installed as I always have. But the login where my name and password go...I have put my password in and it keeps saying that I should double check my password and make sure my caps lock isn't on. I've never changed my password. So I'm at a loss as what to do.

Assuming that you were one of the first 500 and entered your account name (not an email address) up 'til now, I've created a thread to answer that one.

when I set up the my account from the email sent yesterday IT DID ask for my email and had me confirm the email, a place for the key and my password.

Just got the news and downloaded the installer. Do we re-install the 3 check box things, Open AL, PhysX, DirectX?

Rusty_Russell · **Posted:** Tue Nov 07, 2006 2:51 pm

I only reinstalled OpenAL.

I re-created my account last night, couldn't get in for a while, & then could. Made a new avie, no problems; updated my ages this morning. *Now* I see that I was supposed to have downloaded a new installer. But I didn't, last night--just logged in & everything seemed to update fine. Is this going to cause problems down the line? I.e., do I need to start over?

Thanks!

Jane

Not if everything works. Only Cyan changed this time.

As for re-installing, please note that the Update sez we shouldn't need to do that if we did the reinstall for Build 8... I got in fine no problem and din't even think about reinstalling.

An interesting question. I got a long update when logging in, before I found out that there *was* an update. Then when I ran the installer, it just "blipped" and didn't seem to install anything. So whether or not it was actually needed, or whether all that was needed was installed by the log-in update is something that a Cyanist should answer.

On the one hand, if there was something necessary in the installer, then it probably wouldn't hurt to run it after the fact. On the other hand, if it ain't broke, there is no reason to fix it.

I logged in and played for a couple of hours last night, but I did not see this message, so I didn't re-run the installer.

Would the installer change the physics engine? In particular, is the new installer expected to fix the "superjump" effect?
