If TRION wants the best feedback, they really should allow us to copy our main characters over to test. I downloaded the test client last night and just realized that Copy To PTS was greyed out.
I'm really not interested in figuring out how to EXACTLY duplicate my char's items AND keybindings. It's way too tedious.
Can we please get a proper copying working?
Corky - P8 Mage
Kim - P5 Rogue
Billy - P4 Cleric
Server: Seastone, Guild: Hot Shots
The "Copy to PTS" button is no longer disabled thanks to the hotfix today. However, I'm still unable to copy my 50 cleric to the PTS. =(
Yeah my 'Copy to PTS' button is greyed out and I wanted to try out some changes
EDIT: Heck, my whole client is down atm, servers are dimmed out, characters dimmed out, everything!

Test Server Download
Followed the instructions, and everything went fine. When I went to log into active, I clicked on update, and it is reloading the game all over again. Is this normal?
Do I need to back-up the file? Cause I downloaded the PTS, and it needed a full redownload. I wanted to play a bit on the regular just cause, and it needed a re-download again. Having played minecraft, I know that if you update and dont back-up, it will be lost. So, why is it in the same map? Or is it me being dumb and placing it there?

Can't see char's after copying to test
I have copied 2 different characters to the test server.. but when I log them in they are invisible, anyone else have this problem. Scrolling all the way in and back out does not correct it either.
Patcher not letting me log back in
I downloaded and logged in and played fine last night on the pts and when I went to log in today to my pts it said it needed to update all over again. what is the cause of this? Do I have to delete it and start it all over again.
The PTS goes through frequent updates since it's where all the testing takes place. It's not abnormal to have to update multiple times in a week there.Originally Posted by Kainai
TeachMeToGame is currently going through a re-design!
I made a copy of my existing game and put it in another folder with a different Rift name. Then I installed the Rift Alpha patcher in that file. The patcher wants me to re-download the entire game, about 8 hours.
Is the Alpha Client the most up to date PTS Client Trion has or is there another one somewhere?

Also why would I need to re-download the entire game since I already have a full copy (10GB)? I wouldn't think the patches are the same size as the original game.

Found the solution here Just scroll down to Chrion's post.
Too bad Trion can't be bothered with putting this on the front page, would make things a lot easier for people, unless they don't mind reading through pages and pages of player posts.

I have a question about the PTS.
Is one allowed to livestream PTS content?
I belive that since every thing on the PUBLIC Test Shard are public and have patch notes there is no secret content available to the Public. Whats the differences on streaming live or telling people on the forums what you think.
But if you are doing something in closed beta or "alpha" stage it's prolly not allowed such as if your selected to try out something that is not yet confirmed on the forums.
download again?
So i downloaded rift for the PTR and played but forgot to make a second folder umm do i need to download it a 3rd time ?Or is there a way around that?
I like testing on the PTS but im lazy so can u pls add an npc for soul resets to theodors circle in sanctum .
