Irth Server Status By Damian Published: February 7, 2008 Print Email The Irth Servers are down due to a server move that has not gone all to well so far, the web sites are back up, and I hope to have the IRC server back up later this afternoon.
I will post more information on the server status later today, however until the connection issue is resolved the servers can not go back online, I was given a projection of no later than 5PM EST today, but will verify that later as the day goes on.
Thank you much for your patience.

Revert On Patch By Damian Published: November 26, 2007 Print Email I have reverted the patch to the last version, so the old bugs are there again for now, we will try the patch again in a day or two once we are sure this will not be happening again. Thanks so much everyone for your patience. In the past we have never had this type of an issue with the patching, but some major changes were made to the protocols and the server code that caused some unseen issues that there was no way to test prior to putting it live.
If you modified your IrthLuanch.exe to the new one, then you will need the old one again, you can get that HERE .
Again thanks so much for your patience.

New Irth Launcher By Damian Published: November 26, 2007 Print Email Damian to the rescue!
The new irth Launcher can be downloaded at HERE
The launcher must take the place of the old one that is in your Irth Install directory, So Unzip this file and copy over the Launcher in the irth Online Install directory.
Sorry for the troubles with this, and thanks for your patience.
*UPDATE* We are aware of the issue with people being able to log in and are working on it, it is not broken on the client side as we can see from the logs (as of now) but there is an issue on the patcher side, and we are working on correcting it. If you have the patience you can keep trying and it will work eventually, this is just an issue with the amount of people trying to connect at once.
We are working on it to resolve it as soon as possible.

http://72.74.80.121/IrthLaunch.exe
or
http://72.74.80.121/IrthLaunch.zip
and place this in the irth install, replacing the old IrthLaunch.exe
Hopefully the patching protocol will never again have to change and this sort of thing wont be needed again.

Update Part III - Chasing the turkey around here. By Damian Published: November 21, 2007 Print Email Another Update on the Free To Play!
Well time is coming close for the free to play era of Irth Online, we are working hard to try and get the client ready for download and things are looking pretty good! So hopefully it will not be much longer.
We are working several avenues at once here to try and make things as smooth as possible.
With the expected large number of downloads to happen at once, we are probably going to set up a torrent as well as a limited amount of how many people can download the game at once from the site. Though we should have enough capacity to handle many at a time, we will have to monitor it to make sure things are going smooth.
Several more questions have come up in the past few days, so I will try and touch on a few of them now:
