Founder Sandstorm Posted April 29, 2021 Founder Share Posted April 29, 2021 I've updated the way unique identifiers are grabbed, calculated and parsed to the game server from our client. This will let us destinguish who's who since MAC addresses were easily spoofed and not unique. If your client says 'malformed session', 'your session has expired', or 'account locked' - it is due to this change and your local files have not properly updated. To force an update go to your user folder and delete everything 'Velheim' related: 4 4 2 Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
