The solution to the "I was invited as a CB2 tester, but now I can't play" problem

[Ravyne]

Ok, first thing's first, you have to have the email that looks like this:


<font face="Courier New">Congratulations!



Get ready to slay evil monsters, find awesome treasure, and make lots of new friends online for endless FREE fun!* You've been selected to participate in the second Fiesta Closed Beta beginning 3:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time (GMT -0700), Wednesday, July 25!



During our second beta test of Fiesta, we will be launching the brand new Fiesta Store, featuring premium items designed to give your character a bit of pep in her step! In it, we'll be offering many kinds of items: potions, critters to ride, costumes, and mini-houses, to name a few. We'll even give you free Beta Test SparkCash to test it out!



Early next week, we will send you additional information how to download and install a brand new Fiesta client. We will also provide you with a link to our online tutorial to help you get started.



Finally, as a tester, you will receive access to our exclusive Closed Beta Forum, where you will be able to exchange ideas with other members and our Game Masters, and even find a guild full of other Fiesta fans! You will also be able to report bugs, chat about the Closed Beta, and provide us with valuable feedback. We're always happy to hear from our members.



Again, thank you for registering for our Closed Beta, and welcome to the team!



Sincerely,

--The Outspark Team



P.S. If you can't wait to play, you're not alone! Visit our newly redesigned forums for informative announcements from our Game Masters, and see what others are saying about Fiesta! You will find them at </font><font face="Courier New">http://www.outspark.com/forums</font> (javascript:ol('http://www.outspark.com/forums');)<font face="Courier New">.</font>


Then you should wait for the second email that looks like this:

<td>The second phase of the Fiesta Closed Beta will begin today, July 25, at 3:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time (GMT -0700).



When you are ready to download Fiesta, simply visit outspark.com , log-in, and click the &quot;Download Now&quot; button on the left side of the page. (You will be prompted to log-in if you haven't already.) After you've clicked the button, the installer should begin downloading immediately!



This installer will install the Outspark Launcher, Fiesta, and a separate downloading application called &quot;BitTorrent DNA&quot;. Outspark downloads will never include adware or spyware: none of our software collects or transmits any undisclosed information about you or your computer.



Please be aware that all files installed by this download are required for Outspark software to work properly.



To get going, double-click the &quot;Outspark Launcher&quot; icon on your Desktop. If you have an existing version of Fiesta, you will be directed to uninstall the old version by the installer. There may be pauses during the installation process. It is very important that you let the installation process complete without interruption.



If you experience any difficulty with your installation, please visit http://outspark.com/help (javascript:ol('http://outspark.com/help');) for assistance.



We can't wait to see you in Fiesta!

I just got my second one a few minutes ago. Before I got it, I couldn't even see the closed beta forums.


After you get this second email, log out of the forums and log back in.


Apparently, Outspark doesn't add you to the CB2 Testers officially until after you get the second email. You should be able to see the Closed Beta part of the forums now. Hopefully that will also get you into the game. I haven't finished downloading it yet so I'm not sure.

[DamonKidEric]

How come i haven't gotten it yet????

[Stags]

Still not workin'

[DamonKidEric]

The second email i meant....

[Ravyne]

Like I said I just received mine a few minutes ago, but maybe you need to contact them by email... I did that earlier... Here's the email I forwarded my original invitation and my problems to: &lt;font color=&quot;#efa800&quot;&gt;support@outspark.com&lt;/font&gt; (&quot;support@outspark.com&quot;)


Good luck and I hope this helps.

[DamonKidEric]

Thanks for your help. I'll try it.

[Ravyne]

No problem, I know how frustrating it can be. I've been working on this solution for almost 3 hours, lol... maybe more.*


Oh, and BTW thanks for the little tidbits of information from those who offered it on the other forum posts. I appreciate it and it obviously helped a bit.

[DamonKidEric]

Cool....

[Ravyne]

Also, I posted in the*Website Technical Issues*section the same Post as well, if you wanted to check back there on the other replies. Figure it would help those that only visit one section. And wouldn't it be nice if this post got Stickied? Ah, nice to dream, I guess, lol.

[DamonKidEric]

lol

[DamonKidEric]

lol

[juani340]

if i only recive the second e mail, i was accepted to the closed beta or not?

[DamonKidEric]

You shouldn't get the second if you didn't get the first....so maybe you got the first but you just overlooked it...

[j0eboxer]

I got the 2nd but not the first lol i signed up in the middle of the 1st though....

[Ravyne]

When we say second and first, is it referring to the CB1 and CB2 or the first and second emails? I think we are discussing both and getting them confused. I didn't know this game existd until CB2, so obviously even if you did not participate in CB1 you can still participate in CB2. However, you must get the first email that invites you to CB2 I posted in order to get the second. If you did not get the first email, you were not accepted and therefore wouldn't get the second email. However if you got the second email, you would have received the first and just missed it.

[Yuzuyu]

I am also redownloading atm... i just checked my email and got the 2nd one... so i'll keep you all posted if it works ^^

[Ravyne]

Yep, it worked for me. Just make sure you install all the options or it won't work. Probably why so many people are having problems with XTrap, though they don't listen to me... The only reason I'm not playing now is because I remebered I said I'd update if I could get in.

Good luck and have fun!

[dschang]

Currently CBT2 is invite only.* We have not stopped inviting members, so please stay tuned as will be sending out some more shortly.

[Agorath]

I didn't get the second but when I checked my spam (Wasn't easy with amount of spam I get). I found the second in the spam folder. The first e-mail I recieved went to the inbox, while the second went to the spam folder. I'm using Yahoo, so some of you might get your second in the spam.

[SilverNight]

I still haven't gotten the second e-mail...


Oh well! I bet that they're still sending them out, so I'll just have to wait and*be patient! ^^
