There's going to be an update in a few minutes, the current up-down thing you see is testing.
Be patient :)

Yes, the server was accidentally updated to a too new version, a version that required client-side changes.
To fix that issue a client update will be made available.
For the CVS users: Latest CVS, but the same CS/CEL/CAL3D dates.

Okay, so while I'm patiently waiting for an update to be pushed out to solve the same issue Coneitic described, I'm curious how the 50 people online already got the update, or somehow didn't need it? ???

Post by: ThomPhoenix on December 27, 2006, 02:50:00 am
Windows users already have the update, via updater.exe ;)

Title: Re: update??
Post by: ThomPhoenix on December 27, 2006, 03:31:20 am
-Skill bar change: true, better for the visual impaired.
-/tell's are white: true
-shortcuts deleted: your mistake, you should've backed-up your /planeshift/data/options/shortcutcommands.xml file
-build own houses: fake, not yet.
-Klyros fly: definitely fake.
-24/7 tech support: fake ;)
-more rogues: probably imagination.

Actually I think Fragnetics servers went down... it has nothing to do with the update.  :beta:

Well i backed up my shortcuts last time, but when i tried to put them in, it didn't work.

Anyways, i backed it up again, should i update now thom?
Is everything o.k?
Or should i wait till tommorow?

And thank you for all your informative replies, i was really confused too, but not anymore  :thumbup:

You have to get controls.xml as well as shortcutcommands.xml to save your keyboard layout.

No eldoth you don't, i only updated my shortcutcommands.xml, and it worked.
My shortcuts are doing fine.

I think if you update controls.xml as well, you might mess it up.
Like i did last update.

Only update shortcutcommands.xml, that fixed my shortcuts.

It seems lots of people are also having this problem. I guess its just a case of waiting and seeing what happens.

On a different note could you try to make your posts visible in all the forums themes, it's impossible to read in the generic SMF theme when your text is yellow :)

I have major problems with the server..

It keeps saying failed, then it shows and í cant reach the server.. Suddenly i can and stays in for about 10minutes a time (with the chat lagging a lot) and then it kicks me out again...

is there anything i can do? except being patient.
Title: Re: update??
Post by: ThomPhoenix on December 27, 2006, 03:37:18 pm
It's Fragnetics itself, not Planeshift's server.
Title: Re: update??
Post by: Vrin on December 27, 2006, 04:47:35 pm
where can one find information about the updates?

This thread is becoming repetitive. If what you are experiencing has already been posted and you don't have anything new to add, please avoid posting. Wait for news.

This Thread (http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=26889.msg304685;topicseen#msg304685) says it is due to the Earthquake yesterday in the sea off Singapore. Its disrupted communications that run in the direction of the epicentre and that is why some have serious problems connecting but Laanx.fragnetics shows some people online.

And this is a quote from another thread:

The explanation can be found here:
