Prohibit Update.

Post by Katalas »

Hi,

I dunno if it's good category, sorry for that.

This is my problem : I'm developping a themanaworld server but i don't want to update my client.
How to disable updates ? Or how to connect to another update FTP ? (Like my website ?)

Thanx,

Starting the client with the command line parameter -u will skip the updating. But to be able to play you have to give the client a source for the content files.

One way to do this is to put them in a local directory and point the client to this directory using the -d command line parameter.

You can also configure your server to point the client to a different URL to download the updates from, but unfortunately I don't know how to configure this.

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.


You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

The updates are just for world data. The client itself doesn't get updated this way.
