Update Your Realmlist.wtf

[Oilrumsick]

Updated the realmlist yesterday and it worked - today I cannot connect anymore.

edit: ok apparently it got reverted back for some reason. Maybe this also happened for other folk here.
edit2: ok the launcher seems to be reverting it every time (it worked yesterday though) and even starting the .exe directly with the correct realmlist does not work - please help!

When I tried to update the launcher I got a wall of text when opening the launcher and no option to update.

I then redownloaded the launcher and ran that, which gave a small update then when I clicked play it worked and I got in game. I can also join via the wow.exe and via the vanillafixes one.

Still can't connect after trying everything — Round 5

Hey team,

Still completely unable to connect during this round, even after trying pretty much everything suggested in this thread and others:

Updated realmlist.wtf to play.octowow.st (no quotes, correct syntax)
Flushed DNS (ipconfig /flushdns)
Switched DNS servers to Cloudflare (1.1.1.1 / 1.0.0.1)
Rebooted my router
Tried ProtonVPN on multiple locations (Netherlands, Singapore, USA, Mexico, Japan) — none of them worked

Nothing gets me past the connection screen. Just wanted to flag that it's not just a DNS/geo-filtering issue for everyone — some of us are still fully locked out no matter what we try on our end. Hoping this helps narrow down what's still slipping through the filters.

Location: France (if that helps with diagnosing routing/regional issues)

Thanks for all the work on this, appreciate the transparency throughout.
