Question from newbie!

Hello all :)

Downloaded the trial for wow a few days ago, and am thinking I'll stick around for a while. Currently playing daoc, but been there done that.. hehe. I have a question though about where to go. I play from Europe/Sweden, and was thinking of starting an account on the europa based servers. Today I play on US servers on the trial. Will I have to buy an europe based version of the game, or is there anyway to change a file within the program to make it look for the europa servers instead of the us ones? (Reeeeeeeeally wouldnt mind not having to dl and patch it all again)

best regards

Yes, there is a file you can edit to adjust this. Ardani posted it earlier -

Open the realmlist.wtf file in the World of Warcraft directory, change "set realmlist us.worldofwarcraft.com" to "set realmlist eu.worldofwarcraft.com". Voila, you have an EU client. Or you could download the language packs from the wow-europe.com site to turn your US client into a European English, French, German or Spanish client, as you desire.
