Need help logging in to account in older and newer versions of Toribash
This is something I've been struggling with 3.8, the oldest version I own, logging in to my account. Is there any way you could help me log in to my account in 3.8, if possible?
You won't be able to properly log into your account in versions that predate 5.43 because they don't support https which is required by our backend now.
You can, however, modify your tb_login.dat manually with your username/password which should allow you to play in game rooms.
Woah, easy here. No need to throw a temper tantrum.
Could you explain that please? Like until two days ago I used version 4.95 without any issues and it never bothered me with a login screen, I had no issues logging in.

But hey, I deleted that and reinstalled it, and I can't log in anymore. So what's the tb_login.dat supposed to look like, and where is it, and how do I get rid of that login screen again?

You likely had login data entered in your game client for years now, so it didn't throw a login screen each time when it failed to connect and assumed you're offline. Now you reinstalled the game (by deleting your game folder and installing the game anew, I assume), so you no longer have a valid login data file there - which triggers login screen to appear on every game launch.

tb_login.dat looks like this:
user username
pass password
For 4.95, it's likely supposed to be located in your Toribash folder.


It's kinda funny, coz after that, I checked to change the password for my account, and it uses some email address like qq-CChampeon@toribash.com or some shit, obviously that's not my email address and it just made that up from the ingame register thingy.

So, now I can't use this account, either. Coz it's like "we sent a verification email to qq-CChampeon@toribash.com". Oh well. So they sent an email to their servers, nice one.

qr-username@toribash.com are placeholder emails used for new accounts when you register without specifying your own email. Yes, they're not real. To add a real email, use User Control Panel (https://forum.toribash.com/profile.php?do=editprofile).

Password does not get reset until you follow the reset link that's sent to your email. As you didn't have a real email associated with your account, requesting password recovery didn't do anything and your password stayed as it was. If you forgot what it was, we can have it reset for you manually.

Also, no need in flaming staff members when asking for help. Botting and bigotry related bans on your other accounts have nothing to do with you not being able to log in or us deprecating Toribash game clients that were released over 11 and 5 years ago respectively.


Please only respond if you're actually trying to get help accessing your account - if it's yet another rant at how unjust the universe has been to you, I'm locking this thread down.
