Hello everyone,

Awakening now has a new launcher released that players will need to use to connect to the Awakening play and test server. We strongly advise members of our community to upgrade to this new launcher (link to how to download it at the end of this post), for now we will still be supporting the old launcher as well, but in the future we will cease support so please upgrade before this happens.

The new launcher comes with much needed GUI revitilisation and functionality that the old launcher was missing. We hope you enjoy it.

Instructions for download:

Thanks for continuing to play on Awakening,

Cyclone

It is that time of year again, Star Wars Day is almost here! With that in mind, from next restart we will be starting a weeklong event. This will include two new random May 4th event paintings from the series, per account (put in the inventory of the first character to login after restart). A special event badge awarded to each of your characters that gets logged in during the event. On top of this we will also be adding the usual experience boost for the duration of the week. This will amount to three (3) times the base server XP rate. To see the shiny new paintings please remember to restart your launcher and SWG client(s) before logging in after the restart, this will force the required files to download.



To summarise everything that’s guaranteed to be happening during the week:

• Two new event paintings per account (put in the inventory of the first character to login)

• A May 4th 2020 event badge per character logged in

• Increased XP rate (3x the base rate)

All of these will be available from this Friday the 1st of May’s scheduled reset, to next Friday the 8th of May’s reset. Thank you all for experiencing your SWG adventure with us here at Awakening. We hope you enjoy!

From all of us on the Awakening staff team, May the 4th be with you!

We are excited to announce that we have recruited a new staff member to the team, this new member will be taking up the role of Event Coordinator.

We would like to congratulate Moonbeam [EC Intern] on their appointment to the role. In the next month or two Moonbeam [EC Intern] will be working to familiarise them self with the tools at their disposal so they can hopefully bring some live events back to Awakening for you all to enjoy.

Please make them feel welcome as they commence this position with us. We look forward to the exciting things they will have to offer in the future.

If you need to reset a forgotten forum account password please use the "I forgot my password" form. After this you will need to do an additional password reset via a different form in order to synchronise your forum account password and your Awakening game account password. This is due to an issue that was discovered following an update to the forum software that changed the main password reset function, it no longer synchronises the game and forum passwords. The additional password reset must be undertaken through the password reset form on the profile page, you will need to be logged into your account and use a password which is different to the one you currently have set on your account. The reset operation from that page has not been affected by the update and will properly trigger an account sync.

We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused to any of our players.
