Hi guys--I've wanted to play TEF for a while but haven't downloaded it until recently. But I'm having some troubles--how do you log in and connect? I log in here at this site as 'Calamity' and the site works just fine, and I open the game and I'm a nameless deer. I'm searching for a place to log-in in the game itself but can't find anything--and when I click the 'network' tab it says there are 0 players connected, and I'm not connected, either. I have 'Connect automatically' checked but I am never connected to the system.

Sorry if that doesn't make sense! I'm just confused on how to connect and log in. Can someone help me figure this out?

Edit: Problem solved, thanks =D

So, I have three deer, each with their own separate spell data. I use to play TEF on my laptop, but it lagged on my laptop and was super slow, so I decided to download it onto my desktop PC. I put my spell data for each deer in separate zipped folders and emailed them to myself. I downloaded them onto this PC and tried to use them for spell data on this PC. However, every time I log in, my deer is just a plain old deer. I've tried running it as a normal user and as an administrator, and it doesn't help either way. My laptop is Windows Vista and this PC is Windows 7, if that helps any. It's really bugging me and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

The quiet and darkness of the night has kept me restless. I'm not sure why I am unable to sleep tonight, if it's the constant music that is playing in my head (particularly Dragonforce's "Once in a Lifetime") or just restless thoughts, but I decided to get up and turn my laptop on to try to wear myself out.

After reading a couple of blogs on here and checking Facebook, I decided to open up Sportsman's Paradise and see if any deer were on the webcams. I opened 9 different webcams in their own tabs and panned through, only seeing a porcupine on one of them at the moment.

But then, sure enough, a doe was feeding on one of the Minnesota cams. She started to walk to the right and I thought that was the last I'd see of her, but then she popped up on this cam. There was another doe that was timid and didn't want to eat - I watched her move across three cams, realizing that they were all side by side by side! From left to right: left, center, right.

And then the two does vanished into the darkness.

Those few minutes that they appeared on my screen made getting on the computer worth it.

...And now I'm gonna try to get back to bed.
