Server down?

[Ultimasephrioth_]

Hello!
I'm searching for a good MMORPG 4 Linux and I saw this game. I really want to try it out but the server is down . Could you bring him back up again?

The screenshots are looking very promising .

The server has been up all the time, the problem is in the linux version which is not so stable and has a lot of problems with network functions... Be sure you have the latest version or come back in a few days, I hop this issue will be fixed soon

I currently use the windows client, but I still can't login. I made an account by clicking "Server" on the HP but I all I get in the game is "Unregistred ID"

[ElvenProgrammer]

Yeah sorry this is my fault, the server link on the home page was used for the old server. Since we use the new server the instructions to make accounts are in the readme.txt file but I know it's a bit hard to figure out. All you have to do is to add _M at the end of username the first time you login!

Is this Server offline?
I know it's a Home-Server.
Is there an other server?
Or is my "The Mana World.ini" old, i use the latest Windows Version...

(The Website says the login server is online...)

I activated Port Forwarding on my Router for "6901".
I tried other Ports too, but it didn't work

BTW: I love Secret of Mana.
Do you need some Chipsets or Charsets?
I had some from a old game engine called "Manga Mania".

Yes the server was offline because I was away and the computer crashed. Ehm and the link on the home page is not working, I'll fix it soon!

function check_server_status ($server_adress, $server_port)
{
$server_connection = fsockopen ($server_adress,$server_port);

if ($server_connection == TRUE)
{
$server_status = "online";
}
else
{
$server_status = "offline";
}

return $server_status;
}

if (check_server_status ("loginserver.homeunix.test",8947) == "online")
{
print "Login Server online!";
}

Oh, the guest was I.

Code: Select all

function check_server_status ($server_adress, $server_port)
{
$server_connection = fsockopen ($server_adress,$server_port);

if ($server_connection == TRUE)
{
$server_status = "online";
}
else
{
$server_status = "offline";
}

return $server_status;
}

if (check_server_status ("loginserver.homeunix.test",8947) == "online")
{
print "Login Server online!";
}
//...

Thx Matt I'll add it very soon!

[Matt]

Is the server online now?

[ElvenProgrammer]

It should be now...

Hey Elven,

Do you think we should setup a few mirror servers? I've got a dedicated server we could use for hosting a DEV server. But of course we will then need to setup a way for the client to select which server, etc.

It should be now...

Oh yeah, it works now.

I think in the dev stage it could be a great idea because if a server is down you can choose another one, but when we'll have official releases I think it would be better to have only one server so everyone can play together! Anyway it won't be hard to add a screen to select the server just give me your server address and I'll work something out

Hey Matt can you create a file with the script in it to show different images if the server is online or not? Then you can post it here http://themanaworld.homeip.net/Log/index.php if you don't know where...
