The Mana World Forums

Hi everybody !
Could you tell me how and where can I access to working ManaServ (testing or production. doesn't matter)?
I could not login to server :
testing.themanaworld.org and testing.manasource.org 9601 are answer the same: "The update process is incomplete it is strongly recommended that you try again later. <url> mailformed" (user/password are correct, permit login here http://testing.manasource.org/index.php/myaccount )
server.invertika.org and "Whispers of Avalon test server (WOA)" (69.80.239.122) never answers .
In all cases I used Mana v0.1.0.20101119 client.

Thank you .

Login to game, choosing a character, showing map (purely a client feature as for the display),
showing characters, NPC, and chat are currently tested and working with the mainline client:
http://gitorious.org/mana/mana

Showing attack to monstors and to other players, Activity with equipments and skills
are currently under reprogramming to be more extensible but should already be working (though poorly tested.).

To have an idea about how to "discuss" with a manaserv server, see the protocol doc page here:
http://doc.manasource.org/manaserv_protocol
For everything else:
http://doc.manasource.org/
(Don't forget that manaserv is using Enet, a library using reliable UDP protocol to handle the network part.)
http://enet.bespin.org/
You'll have to include it in your own project or redo something similar to be able to understand the server.

As I understand there is one server for manaMobile client with one showing map feature? And development server has the same features? What client should I use for it?

The manamobile client is an early client made with QTquick for mobile platform uder heavy development. It is meant to replace the current client one day. Though, you can use the mainline client (link above) if you want to be able to see how far you can go with the current development.

I hope it helped you.

Best regards.
