Had the same problem 2 days ago...couldn't log into test. But it was fine yesterday. Haven't tried today, though...things could have changed....

Took me about 6-7 tries, but I finally got test to launch update and load again.

It kept crashing. Im thinking their new launcher is a bit buggy.. hehe.

Can't log in either. I thought AVG was to blame

However, after taking the steps to sort that out I still can't get the launcher working on a regular basis for the TEST game. It is almost impossible to log in now.

I finally was able to log in today after doing a complete reinstall of the game, can anyone else get in without having to go that far right now?

We found a "work around" for the downloading issue. Copy and paste the info from your open (live) pirate’s folder for game_options and last_working_options into the files (of same names) in the test folder. They told both Di and I that our anti-virus-ware was what was keeping us from loading the update, yet somehow we were both able to log on using the info from the open server. (We have different virus protection)

Well, I tried that earlier on the Mac, but that did not work, had to go do the complete reinstall.

I suspected something with the options files.

I would guess the new launcher saves another bit of information in those files, and is trying to wipe out the old, and start with a new.

I figured this out as I had successfully ran test, then switched to my 2nd account, and had to go through the whole process again, go figure, arent the files up to date already? I think the new launcher is having issues creating/writing the game config files.

I was able to log in tonight, after not bbeing able to for 3 days. It appeared to do a small update, didn't say anything about the launcher needing updated, then took me to the pick a pirate screen just fine.

Windows version finally working without having to do anything, and the cannon bug is now fixed!

I did the launcher update a few days ago, and after re-booting was able to log in again.

Just tried to login now and got the "bad id/password" error message again.

*sigh*

Here you go. Alternatively, if you delete all of the files/folders in the "C:\Program Files\Disney\Disney Online\PiratesOnline_Test" folder EXCEPT for the launcher (launcher1.exe I think), the launcher will re-download the game the next time you open it.
