Downloaded launcher(is that the same as the account manager?) Came as 2 down loads! Opened it got told I could not use my Name so the name I have had for decades is now ********** or something like that.

As other players might say WHAT THE FUCK but I will decline.

As there is only hours left to get the 2 golden bits what do I do.

I only bothered finishing as I only just got the last skill related one today

OK I have set up the Jagex Account but it will not let me log in.

This is the usual made by those who know for use by those that don't.


They will say well of course we don't actually say 'you need to stand on your head while singing your countries national anthem' as we all know this in order to access one's accounts.

Its so obvious

HOW THE FUCK DO YOU MAKE THIS WORK!

Don't get all upset, if they made it work in the first place no copulation would be implied!

So just so I might get some help before 'tomorrow' I have made some extra posts on other forums.

Yes its not really following the rules but the system is not following the rules!

Answers on a postcard, NO that's to slow

Jagex has an infographic in their newspost about Jagex Accounts that walks you through the migration process - it sounds like you've already done that.

After that, you should just need to log into the Jagex Launcher with your new Jagex Account credentials, click play, and be on your way. If you are having trouble doing that and have signed into the Jagex Launcher with a RuneScape account previously, be sure to click "Manage Accounts" and then pick to "Log out of all accounts." That will allow you to get to the right login screen so that you can log in with your Jagex Account. Otherwise, it will assume you are entering RuneScape account information, and it won't work.

The other topics you've put in the other forums will be closed, as they are misplaced and are duplicates - this thread is plenty to get the assistance you need to be able to log into the game with your Jagex Account.

Tried all possible combinations of passwords and usernames and emails: nearly got to play but I don't have a membership!

Took ages to get into my 'account' to post here after I was sent another activation/verification code by email.

I thought this super new system was if its you you just log in and play.

The system does not recognise the new username and pass I set up or any of the other possible combinations!

It's 19.44 BST and the game has already turned into a pumpkin and its not midnight yet

The information that you entered to log into the website to access the forums is the exact information you need to enter into the Jagex Launcher to be able to access the game.

Your login into the game has to be via the Jagex Launcher, it can't be done just from the client as was done in the past.

Any old login information you may remember for your RuneScape character is defunct once you have migrated to a Jagex Account, the only login information you need to remember now is the Jagex Account email address and the password to that Jagex Account.

There seems to be a bug that allows my computer saved passwords to work on the forums but not the launcher. I seem to need an emailed code each time I have to log into the forums

Given that I only set up the Jagex A/C to day I have the pass still written in front of me but does not work on the launcher

So I can post here but not play the game :(

The new account name is only for you or if you contact Jagex and your old in game display name will still be the same.

Did you get an email saying your account transferred over?

You should have 2 launchers, the old Runescape one and the new Jagex one, make sure you only click the new one if saved as desktop shortcuts.

The new name should already be on the launcher when you open it, and you only need to login with the email and password you used to get on the forums.

If you try and log in with too many combos it may think someone is trying to hack you and may have blocked you for a bit?

Do not use the old log in info as it will no longer work.

Log out of the game but do not sign out of the launcher (if you get it working) and it should remember you so can skip the email verification codes. From the lobby screen click on 1 of the news posts and it should auto log you onto the forums but like I said that's after you get it working in the first place.

Seems to work this morning. Though the Wise Old Man at the GE did not get the memo so I have only 6 shards and less 25mill gp


Another crap bit of design, Long live the Dung! team. Years more of poor design
