Thanks.

Did anyone of Prelease Access-buyers managed to login for download? Login/Password works for http://www.adom.de/the-resurrection/, but not for http://www.ancardia.com/secure

I would suggest reading full sentence on first link in the paragraph which leads to second one.

In other words passwords are not same

I suspect that content might be dynamic, as
"Log into the portal: Enter the email address you used to donate to the campaign and the password you received via the function described above. You now are logged into the portal and can process the data required for your pledge rewards. "
And after logging there is no link to /secure, there is almost no content..
"You (<cut>) are logged into the ADOM: The Resurrection portal to manage all data that is required for your pledge level (Prelease Access). If you do not agree with this donor rating, please notify creator@ancientdomainsofmystery.com.

Thank you for donating[...]"
SaveInput/Logout buttons and nothing more

I still suggest you read that paragraph. Very clear one. Or you do not classify for secure access.

At this point I propose to the general ADOM playing public (and the ADOM team) that prerelease 13 be made publicly available at some point in the near future (perhaps on a magically significant date on the month of October, hint hint?). It is the most current and less buggy version _before_ the implementation of graphics and sound, which would remain exclusive to those with prerelease access. It would bring in a whole slew of fans/playtesters up to date with big game features that will be making it into the final version one way or another, like the many, many game mechanics changes introduced starting with p7 and the new races and classes introduced starting with p6, and also noteye integration (although without any graphics or sound).

But the current prereleases have versions with and without NotEye. So instead of p13, they could just make public the non-NotEye version of the latest prerelease (which seems rather stable too, as no new significant bugs have been reported AFAIK). That wouldn't give non-donors access to the sound and graphics either.

The last 3 or 4 versions have been all NotEye content, IIRC. There isn't really any difference between pre13 and the most recent version if you play in ASCII mode (like I do).

p14 have long startup bug, and p16 crashes when gambling in casino. other then that they seems to be stable.
