Like in my other guide above that explains how you connect to a server if the normal way (realmlist.wtf) doesnt work i am still mixing with the config-file. Its not the most advanced thing but its always something and ofcourse someone needs to put it up here on mmowned ... Anyways, When i looked in the config-file (located in the WTF-folder) i saw up in the left corner it says: "SET locale "enUS"", and i started to think: WoW is has its servers in different parts based from where you are from and where you buy the game. So if you change the "enUS"" (english UnitesStates) to "enGB" (english GreatBrittain), you should get the english european version, so i tried. I had a simple server and changed to "enGB", started the game and then i couldnt connect to the server. That means it did work. So my point with this is that you european players out there that wanna play on a US private servers. Just open the config-file located in the WTF-folder in your WoW-folder and change the line: SET locale "enGB" (or if you got something else) to SET locale "enUS" and your done, you can now play on an US server without install an US-version of WoW. Hope it helps
