MS down?

[hyperson]

I just tried to connect and it didn't work.
MS down perhaps?

 

[Kaysakado]

On purpose. It seems that I am still the only one to join by batch file, and as such, the only one to actually go here. It tells you to go away and that Logan needs a break.

 

[hyperson]

Can't we make up like a extra ms somehow?

 

[Kaysakado]

Yeah, but noone wants to waste their bandwidth.

 

[hyperson]

I could make one. maybe and maybe not.

 

[Senku Niola]

I wouldn't mind hosting the MS server on my computer for the day since I don't usually use my computer that much anyways.

 

[hyperson]

Can you do it?

 

[luis90]

I wouldn't recommend using any, if all, applications that require intarwebs connection... I get 5 second mIRC lag when I open up world of warcraft. Then again, maybe my connection sucks.

How in the world how?

 

[hyperson]

Simple just change the master server settings on srb2 >.<

And how was I supposed to know that?

edit: eh sorry no option for that...

 

[Boinciel]

I guess Logan got his Christmas present after all. The fact that the Master Server is down could be a godsend for us all, and slow the rule-breaking servers. If they think they got banned, they won't bother trying to reconnect for a while. Ergo, we all get some time off to relax after the MS goes back up.

@SS64: To host your own MS, you have to compile it, then run it in the command line with the following syntax:

MASTERSERVER 28900

And then have people change their MS settings in-game to [insert your external IP here]:28900

How do you compile it? (the rest I get) edit: 192.168.1.104:28900

edit 2: Command line?

 

[Kaysakado]

No, your external IP is the one you find at places like here. And to compile it, you need Dev-C++ and the neccesary Devpacks, then you go into the source, go into the tools folder, then into the masterserver folder, then use Dev-C++ to compile MasterServer.dev.

Then after you compile it, then what?

edit: I think I'm done. try connecting

 

[SRB2 Guy]

Nope. "Cannot connect to the master server" when I try to get to yours.

 

[SuperSonic64]

Try now, I got it to work.

 

[SRB2 Guy]

Hey, look, a log that showed what happened when I tried the second time!

 

[SuperSonic64]

Still can't find.

the command line.
edit: is this it?
