Hey, I've been inactive for a few months.
How do I play on US server? I'm from Europe.
But my F2P twink is there..

What notes do I change in my WoW?

Greetings,

Keep in mind that changing the realmlist doesn't work since MoP, as the file doesn't exist anymore. Here's a simple thing I tried with the MoP installation and that worked for me:

Changing your client from EU to US:

Choose one: edit your EU client and edit it back after, or if you have the room, do what I did: copy the entire installation into another folder (called WoW US or something).

In the copy / in your client open the file Config.wtf in the WTF folder in any text editor (I used a code editor because Mac TextEdit screws code up sometimes).

Change the line SET locale "enGB" to SET locale "enUS"

Save the file and that's it.

Yde wrote it out in the FAQ.
