ATTENTION: PROJECT ONLINE IS OUTDATED AND OUT OF SERVICE
Project Online is a server reconstruction with all functions of the original UbiSoft servers. To be able to play on this server the server address has to be changed. This is possible as follows.
A registry file changes entries in the registry as follows:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Ubi Soft\Game Service] "ConnectURL"="http://s5online.dedk.eu:40080/init?user=%s&game=%s" [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ubi Soft\Game Service] "ConnectURL"="http://s5online.dedk.eu:40080/init?user=%s&game=%s"
Download the file, double-click and run it: http://dedk.de/update/ProjectOnline.zip
Download this file and open it.
Windows 10 Creators Update
Then you have to replace your original settlershok.exe files with the new files. You can usually find your original settlershok.exe files in the following locations:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Blue Byte\THE SETTLER - HERITAGE OF KINGS - Gold Edition\bin C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Blue Byte\THE SETTLER - HERITAGE OF KINGS - Gold Edition\extra1\bin C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Blue Byte\THE SETTLER - HERITAGE OF KINGS - Gold Edition\extra2\bin
If you completed one of these variants, you can start settlers as normal and connect to ubi.com as usual, but you must create a new account. The CD key can be filled with SHK-00000 … because it no longer get checked. If something doesn't work out as expected, you are welcome to ask for help on our discord server. https://discord.gg/utBbZzh
