Title: Problems connecting to Atomic Blue Client.

This is self explanitory, I really miss playing AB and wanted to try it again, or atleast try MB, is their a way I can? Please help me out with this situation, I figured their would be old servers up for the old games for people who do not like CB.

Is their a way I could run my own server and let people join? AB and MB were gods compared to CB. Wallclimbing, No damage when falling, Xtal Hunting!!!! :'( Let me bring them back!!

Post by: miadon on November 13, 2006, 02:50:48 pm: theoretically you could set up your own server, but I have never been 100% clear on what the license agreement allows, I think if its just for your own test purposes its fine, but as its no longer the current version its no longer testing, you wouldn't be allowed to let others join.

3. You may use the provided Material, for personal use only, to connect to an Official PlaneShift Server only in conjunction with a Planeshift Client, distributed by the Planeshift Team. Official PlaneShift Servers can only be designated by PlaneShift Team.

I think that sums it up. ;)

Quick question though if any one can answer, is it Planeshift or PlaneShift

Although that is for CB and not AB, and I would agree with the above post. Plus, do you have the source code for the AB server?

Post by: AryHann on November 13, 2006, 03:50:47 pm: Atomic Kran, you can have a server but you won't have the server data. I think you will miss pretty much.

How to create a server? There are tons of compiling guides around depending from your operative system. I recommend you to be aware that you can't have a server without building it yourself, as far as I know, and anyway that won't mean that you will have the database data.
