atomicar Posted June 9, 2011 Share Posted June 9, 2011 I gave up early, early January because I heard that we will be getting RA's server. I still feel guilty not publishing the work done so far.Well it was very nice of you to try and get ra server back but iam also puzzled that you would go through all that effort because you dont play emperor anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruntlord6 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Please stay on topic. If you want to talk about players, fine. Start a new thread. (Posts about Hamachi are Ok, since until I get a proper server up and running, Hamachi is more or less the De facto server)what OS do you need to run? Im getting a vps soon, and it should suffice.

Voodoo Daddy Posted June 22, 2011 Author Share Posted June 22, 2011 what OS do you need to run? Im getting a vps soon, and it should suffice.Interesting, My problem has been finding a box. I threw out a bunch of old PC's a little over a year ago, and now it turns out I could of used one of them. RA said he wrote his server software on Red Hat. So the server would need to run Red Hat 7, 8, or 9 with mysql and php. Which i think are part of the distro. You would need to set up a password during the install, then RA would log on and compile his software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See if you can find out exactly what OS and specs the server will need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobalopper Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 You should be fine running any Linux distro unless he wrote some really custom code...Do you know what programming language he used? If it was just PHP he shouldn't need to compile anything. Although I would suspect there would have to be some sort of daemon running that accepts connections from the game.

Voodoo Daddy Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 I just wanted to give everyone a update. I have a server ready, but unfortunately RA1024 has gone missing. I have tried to email and to contact him by phone with no success. So until he turns up and I can get the binaries from him the server is at a standstill.

sjleo Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 With respect to your work!if necessary Tunngle community EBFD to help you.But now Tunngle provides ideal conditions for the game.Menu of friends, personal chat, forum, variability and reliability of communication lets we play 3 vs 3 with no problems.send me private messages if you need help.

markwilliam Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Well, I finally have some good news! I have been in touch with RA and he offered to send me the server code. Once he does this I will have to get a box to run the server, and the software to run RA's binaries. The big question is, are there enough people still playing to make this effort worth my while?

sjleo Posted November 16, 2011 Share Posted November 16, 2011 If the RA will work, we are ready to go.At least for the sake of those who essentially just waiting for RA, ignoring Tunngle.We have 20 ppls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezee Peazy Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I just found the 4 disk set in a trash dumpster outside of a storage facility... I havent played this in over 10 years... I dont remember there ever being a very large community on WOL (which i tribute largely too the non standard way they set up the chat and match making. This is actually the first game I remember were you could get a quick match(which i find gay in that quick match makes the community very fragmented) Ill play, After I go thru the fourm and figure out how to set up the configs for whichever server ppl are playing on.

erjin999 Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Shame a server isnt up and running reliably. For some reason I dont want to get involved in the hamachi type things. I would try to come back and meet up with some oldies and any newbs around.I wish I wasnt so useless at programming myself.It was this mood that made me try to make a server myself.
