I don't have anything planned for any future patcher discs at the moment, so just burn v2. There haven't been any new bugs reported as of yet (that I know of) related to the functionality of it, so I think it'll stick around for a while.MikeStutzzzz wrote:so is there a v3 disk or v2.1 or somthing like that in the make or should i just burn the v2 disk

Re: Reporting bugs with the PSO server
Before anyone asks: yes the server is down, no I don't know why nor when it will be back up.
It is an issue on the host itself, as the entire VM it is hosted on is inaccessible.
EDIT: The initial problem has been traced and taken care of, but there are still a few loose ends to tie up. The server should be back and running in the next 24 hours, if all goes well.

Re: Reporting bugs with the PSO server
The server should be back up and functioning now. It appears all the ships came back as well.

Re: Reporting bugs with the PSO server
Strange character when clicked About the description of the server playing PSO GC.
I'm at work now and do not remember which ship it happened.

Re: Reporting bugs with the PSO server
It's not on a ship (GC doesn't have an information counter on ships), and the asterisk is completely intended. That's exactly how the message file is on the server itself:
For reference, *nix generally refers to any Unix-like operating system, but without using the trademarked term "Unix". Generally you'll see operating systems like Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and even sometimes Mac OS X referred to in this manner.
Code: Select all
Sylverant is an open-source Phantasy Star Online
Server for *nix. It is licensed under the GNU AGPL

Maybe you have plans to make a Windows-like interface to the Server?
Even more. It's great to have Sylverant to play. My congratulations for the great project.

Re: Reporting bugs with the PSO server
You can run the server on Windows using cygwin. That's how we hosted our ship a few years ago. See here: http://code.google.com/p/sylverant/wiki/CompileCygwinmautheus wrote: Thanks for the explanation ... Thought to be a bug.

Re: Reporting bugs with the PSO server
I think what he's asking for is a GUI for the configuration and day-to-day functions of the server. If that's the case, then no, I do not have any plans for such a GUI program for the server.brourke228 wrote:You can run the server on Windows using cygwin.

There's a couple of reasons for that...
- I wouldn't particularly find it useful, as I find the current method of configuration to be much more in-line with what one would expect for a server program on a Unix-like Operating System.
- The server I use Sylverant on actually doesn't have any sort of GUI installed, so if there was such a thing it'd probably be something based on ncurses or something to that effect that runs in a terminal.
- I absolutely hate writing GUI programs, in general.
- As an addendum, if you're specifically looking for a Windows program, I don't use Windows any more than I have to (so, pretty much only for a few games), so I try not to write programs for it either. I like to use the programs I write as often as possible to make sure they still work as intended.
- I'm lazy and GUIs tend to make things more difficult to configure, in my humble opinion.

Re: Reporting bugs with the PSO server
Sometime tonight (UTC-5), I'll be taking down the main Sylverant server for an OS upgrade (from FreeBSD 8.4 to FreeBSD 10.0). I'm hoping to keep the overall downtime to a minimum, but a large amount of the software on the server will have to be rebuilt to actually perform the update. During any downtime, the website and PSO server will pretty much be completely inaccessible.
Just wanted to warn everyone that isn't following my twitter of that ahead of time. With any luck, everything should be up and running sometime on Tuesday (once again, UTC-5).
