IMPORTANT: XWIS servers are now free, ORIGINAL cd key NO LONGER NEEDED!

[day]

You do not longer need XWIS tool to change server adress or anything, just connect to default Westwood internet that is now XWIS:

88.198.24.17

Do not change adress after the game si installed or anything.

Online guide MUST BE updated. :)

You also do not need original cd key to connect, just use cd keys that you can find on internet, for example ones from old Deviance crack:

036642-256734-246754-5204

038785-895894-747474-9011

036666-666666-666666-2921

Just login with any user name  and 8 letter password,  combination of letters and numbers. :)

You can play games, or click CHAT at the bottom of the screen and get message with XWIS status, number of players online:

"Wellcome to XCC online, (xy, players online)"

I have connected to XWIS with many random user names and passwords with those and other non original cd keys and it works!

So people join up and lets play this great game! :)

PS: We need to find a solution to reduce multiplayer game speed to normal.

!@#$%! It works! yaahooo  ;D ;D ;D

We can play now!

Thanks you!  :)

Interesting! I will update the getting online guide ASAP!

[day]

Darn!  >:( ???

It looks like the original cd key check is on again on XWIS, WOL disconnects me after few seconds.

You could play with any cd key and username for days.

Probably somebody from XWIS read this thread, or someone reported it. :-[

I dont get it, why are they protecting abandoned game that has 3-5 players online in the prime time.

Anyone knows will RA server come back on?

[Voodoo Daddy]

I am trying to get in touch with RA. If I can get him to send me the server software I will host the server. I will let you know if and when I am successful.

[day]

Maybee i am wrong about the whole thing,... or right, i dont know any more... :)

[mascojr]

??? ??? ???

soooo we just wait for voodoo i presume? D:

[Voodoo Daddy]

No, we are waiting for RA. You can either play on XWIS (if you have a legitimate serial) or use Hamachi.

If anyone in the community knows how to set up server software using PvPGN, they could either set up a server or set up the software and then send it to me.

[Repoman]

Is this still the case or do I need a new CD key?

[KaiserKW]

you would need a legal key, as xwis server still not accepting pirated keys. bummer.

[KaiserKW]

pls make haste to enable pirated version to play on the internet section of emperor, looks like im the only one left with original disk and key, and wnat to play coop mode with someone else!
