    Bringing the servers back up... FOR GOOD.
    Hi guys. I know you have been upset about the servers being down so long, as usual. It seems like the last 3 times I got them up they go down within days or weeks.

    And its a huge pain for me to get them back up again. Well this time I have had enough, and I am no longer going to be using hostMDS to host the game servers.

    I am going back to how I originally did my online games and I will be hosting the servers on my home computer again. This means that the servers will be up more often and if they do go down I can get them up asap without sending 5 emails back and forth with my webhost.

    I spent my entire day today getting things running and converting CND 2.0 to work with my home computer. It should work now, but I haven't tested everything and since theres a new intermediate script handling all the client/server data I think there may be some problems...

    So can you guys do me a great favor and check the accessibility of the game for me? I am thinking that the & character might be problematic now... So if your world had a & character in it somewhere on a sign or object or something it might be messed up. Or in the trophy system. I don't know, please just play with it and report new bugs in this thread.

    • Wormy

      I will go through some of the other online games soon and make them work too! Not sure when though I will be pretty busy this upcoming week.

    • JeanMarc

      W00T It works!

    • Absent0

      Finally! Nice job, Wormy!

    • Absent0

      And for the bugs, the only ones I found were that I still couldn't save edits to my world/house, and when I want to teleport directly to my world, it won't let me type any number except for 0 and 1.

    • JeanMarc

      You can't change characters and my classic: The sprite uploader doesn't work.

    • Unicorn6

      New accounts don't start off in tutorial world but in world 1 instead
      Chat between players isnt working correctly including the /invite command
      Players original communication isnt working. At first we couldnt see each other but randomly we started to be able to see each other.
      I chose kirby but I was Toad, no idea why. We both were.
      In tutorial world you can't dodge the green fire alien thing by standing on the log, that was really annoying because it looks like you can the first time you play.

    • Absent0

      I found out that some sprites in the game are invisible, like the 8-bit Donkey Kong sprite....

    • Wormy

      Yeah I worked on the custom sprites a little today but I am not sure if they are fully functional yet.

      The bad thing I noticed today was that some characters that are newer are gone out of the system. I think that might mean this is an older version of the game.... So some of the stuff I fixed before could be back :/ I dont know why I cant find the latest version but its sorta too late now anyways.

    • JeanMarc

      But the characters that we control are the ones that we had choosen before the server goes off.

      EDIT: The character chooser works now, thanks.

    • JeanMarc

      The server just doesn't work though.

    • kerbykong

      Ok, Well I've found a few things. Image loading takes extremely long (longer than usual). None of my trophies are visible. The numbers 3 to 9 don't work on the red hammer editor. There's also a different layout.

    • JeanMarc

      Yeah, I saw the layout and for the numbers, only 0,1 and 2 can be entered.

    • Absent0

      The points we have in the game aren't in sync with our actual points.

    • Eric

      My guy is invisible. :-(

    • JeanMarc

      Change your character to fix it. You can even select the same and it'll appear.

    • Absent0

      I don't know if this is a bug, but you can jump higher, now.

    • Wormy

      Jumping higher is actually a new feature. Upon playing the game again I felt like I didn't have enough control over my character so I made a few modifications to the physics system to give it more of a mario-game feel. Now if you hold your space bar longer, you will jump higher. Tapping the space bar makes your jump very small.

      Hopefully I will be able to find the old source files that are in some ways more up to date (they have some of the newer characters for instance), but until then characters like Obi-Wan will not work. I am not sure what other characters are not working. If you have a specific character you know is not working PLEASE POST IT HERE.

      Sadly the loading time will be longer for now on since the game client is hosted on my home computer and my upload speeds are not very good compared to my webhosts.

      I will try to fix the rest soon, I have a big exam wednesday morning though.

    • Wormy

      Oh and the new layout is a new feature too, I changed the layout, do you guys like it?

      Kerby I count 6 trophies on your account, do you see 6 in game?

      Absent0, do you have 202,075,963 points in game? How much is it showing you have? 209,317,820?

    • Absent0

      Yeah, but they're the same now, so I guess you fixed it. The missing trophy problem is probably happening to everyone, since I don't see my trophies in the game also.

      I see six grey squares. I was thinking, maybe you could have the physics abit more like teeworlds? Recently I've been hyper-addicted to this game.

    • enjoi

      The game works again? Maybe I'll actually come back to this site more than a few times every 4+ months

    • enjoi

      Oh, look. The server is down, still. See all of you back in another 4+ months!

      Kerby I really like that game, it is very cool. It reminds me a TON of the game Soldat which I am in love with.

    • enjoi

      Well it's working now. Good job Wormy, I don't know why you didn't do this a long time ago

    • Nintendoguy09

      I lost my chocobo egg by entering type/join and most of my trophies

    • rilezTNUKI

      it still says it down for me, but i then again i tried today at 7:10PM Eatern. chat connection fails, my trophies are gone when leave world, and i change to toad when i enter my "successfully" claimed house. i couldnt edit the house, and i fell forever.

    • Wormy

      Sorry guys, I know theres still a lot of problems and I promise I will fix the serious ones this month. :-)
