Complete MMORPG Development Guide

Hello everyone.
I have the MMORPG Advanced Tutorials completely rewritten for TGE 1.4, with all kinds of new features.
The new tutorial series is called "The Complete MMORPG Development Guide"
It is meant to take a person from the earliest stages of developing a game Conceptualization, Design Docs etc to a ready to ship MMO.
I am in the process of transcribing it to my site at mydreamrpg.com
This will be the final incarnation of the guide until there is a TSE for linux, at which time I will again do a port.
To access the development portions of the site as well as the code sections of the guide you will need to be a current TGE licensee. (currently you will need to be verified by emailing me after registration)
I am also launching a game based on the tutorials, as well as a second site DreamRPGOnline devoted exclusively to the game.
The guide is meant to be a living document and as new and better ways are discovered of doing things, it will be updated by the community that is building up around it.
A secondary goal is to provide a plethora of content for people looking to create rich worlds using the MMORPG enchancement kit I will be providing at no charge, as well as an open market for up and coming artists and coders to sell their content to help subisdize their own game development desires.
I want to stress upfront that this site is NOT meant to compete in anyway with garagegames, in fact to access the vast majority of content on the site you will need to be a TGE licensee.
In fact it is my strong desire to spur sales here of indie games and content, and to increase the interest and awareness of crossplatform indie created games.
I also (quite intentionally), make heavy use of content and packs which can only be purchased here at garagegames.com
Without these packs the full richness of the guide and MMORPG enchancement kit cannot truely be experienced.
I hope everyone here enjoys the site and at least comes to pay us a visit.
We will be doing a load test and server burn in on our game servers as soon as I have enough users on the site who wish to participate and I could sure use your help in doing this.
Regards,
Dreamer

Those of you who want to order, the order system is at: www.mydreamrpg.com/orders/
Also, we now have a new Live Help system, which is available on any page of Joomla, WebIRC and vBulletin. We are currently intergrating it into every Order System page, and Wiki page (heh).

No luck -- it's not recognizing my password. Tried resetting the password, and it won't accept that one either.

Where are you trying to login?
Chris,
To access the kit download, visit the order system, then go to Client Login, login with your email address and password. You should then be presented with a table saying MMO Enhancement Kit (One Time Purchase) or similar. Click the button on the right of that, then you will be presented with a download. Enjoy. :)
Thanks,
- Tom.

I still cannot get in. I have also set up a different email to aol to get my activation email as I was told that aol emails seem to be bouncing your emails. Please advise.
Should I get a refund then register a new account and buy again?

That will allow someone to walk you through the process if needs be. It is also possible there is some strangeness in your cookie settings, firewall or privacy settings. One member reported that adding us to his list of trusted sites solved his login and activation issues.
Anyways again my apologies for any difficulties you are experiencing, but we are here pretty much 24/7 to help you through it.
