Some News - Posted on 25 Nov 2008 by Barrage |
Yo kids. Sorry for not being around. I have to drive thirty minutes to even get to the server heh. But never fear. This hardship has only made me work harder and I am still coding on an offline clone of the server. I won't get into everything as typing on this I phone is pretty tough but I will say I am working on a system to have pictures displayed next to the bios of all npcs as well as adding a feature that will allow each player to display their own custom portrait alongside their bio when someone looks. Figures you would all enjoy that. Look forward to a client update in a few days.

Server Up! - Posted on 15 Nov 2008 by Barrage |
Yup, server is back up.
Look forward to an update soon. :P
Our internet was down at my appartment, don't know when it will be up. So, moved the server to my parents house. I may be coming to live here soon anyway.
Either way, the connection is a lot more stable here as I'm the only one that uses it. Same speed..8mbit.
Talk to you all soon. |

House "bug" - Posted on 25 Sep 2008 by Barrage |
Is now definately fixed.
Turns out our packet logging system, which we use to keep track of people in houses so we can hunt down hackers, was simply too backed up. :P It was trying to load a txt file over a hundred MB big every time someone did something in a house lol.
It would have taken me a long time to notice this was a problem if not for Tulkas, who was able to explain the bug in great detail, along with when it happened, and a timespan of how it got worse.
This is why we encourage people to be vigilant and very detailed. Its the small details that often help us truly find these bugs.
THIS FIX SHOULD ALSO MEAN: A decrease in lag, as everytime someone used a house, it would have lagged the game. Should also mean a decrease in lag in Lucca, as the keeps use the some style of map, and would also have been effected.
The update is now back on schedule. Remember, update 1.6 will be cutting out a lot of the every day lag we experience, as we are adding some better loading systems.
See ya in game. ;) |

House Bug - Posted on 22 Sep 2008 by Barrage |
I believe the house bug has been fixed.
Tested it with a few houses/shops and they load properly now.
Sorry for the inconvenience, I started a new job and they had me work a couple 12 hour shifts. :P |

Server Upgrade - Posted on 29 Aug 2008 by Barrage |
At great expense, I was able to repair my super computer.
Within 15 minutes we will be running the server on said computer.
This computer boasts dual core 3.4ghz processor, 2gb of RAM, 400gb harddrive, and much, much more. It even has a TV remote and can receive cable TV hookups. :P
This should eliminate the software lag we've been experiencing.
What does this mean to you?
Not only will we be the most advanced classic FSO in existence, but we will also have the best server machine (on a 8mbit line, no less!) in the field.
Look forward to a whole new level of gaming experience.
Also, we are in the process of staff reconstruction. The new, and current, staff, will be going through a rigorous training session to ensure they can handle your questions and problems WITHOUT having to consult me.
This means in addition to the most advanced FSO, with the best server, we will have the best player support team in the genre. I look forward to seeing you all in a few! |
