In chat, type:

Code: Select all

/login NecroToast@forums
After a second, it will prompt you for your password.

Extra:
You can "save to disk" if you don't wish to have to type it in all the time.
In your player setup, you can add your GID (NecroToast@forums) and enable auto login to log in automatically when you enter a server.
If you don't want people to see your login, you can also hide it in the same menu.

Yea it's /login (username@forums) without the parenthesis.

For rZ auth, it's /login ([email protected]), without parenthesis.

Its very sad but I've tried the /login and I went to authenticate in the menues but it still returns "
NecroToast@forums not found"
and when i try roadrunners it says "[email protected] not found" I even made a new accout and tried that one, still zero luck

From what you posted, it would appear so, but I want to confirm. You are typing everything in case-sensitive, right?

Yea sometimes for some reason, the auth doesn't know the GID exists, especially if it's a really new account. give it a couple of days I guess? As long as you're not doing anything wrong ofc, I'm sure that's the problem.

Are you in a server that supports global id's? You could try any of "Light's" servers to verify. Most servers are set up to allow it, but there's a few that ain't. Found a new one today that doesn't.

You could try with a login from http://lightron.no-ip.org/Authentication although your @forums should work fine. Maybe would you like to join me in a server and we could test it out?

If he's in a server that doesn't support Global IDs, it will come back and tell him about that.

Is the reply coming back saying "USER_NOT_FOUND" or something similar? Could you perhaps take a screenshot of the message and post it here please? That would help us understand, rather than try for a visual image of the message... :P

From his message, it sounds like he's trying to log in via the menu option. But, he says he tried using the chat /login command and didn't give all of the info so I figured I would guess.
