Server Status / Re: Mirror offer and request for sigs
« on: July 18, 2007, 03:06:44 pm »
Please give me feedback if you want/need the mirror with ftp access or not.
I wrote an Private Message to Talad, but I didn't get any feedback.

If there is no reply to this, I will shutdown the mirror soon.

Greetings,
Daniel

Server Status / Mirror offer and request for sigs
« on: July 11, 2007, 12:45:48 pm »
Files updated!

Hello,

I recognized that the download mirrors for linux don't work. (maybe windows too?)
Don't know wether this is by fault or not.

I read "Mirror 5: not yet available, can you be one?" on the download page. Yes I can.

I already uploaded the files, but I don't have the md5 sigs yet.
As soon I have them I'm ready to provide you the files with high bandwidth.
Someone has the md5 signatures already?

Feel free to add the mirror to the download section then. I will provide it here.

Thank you,
Daniel

*EDIT1*

Well, I found it here finally: http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=19389.0
I will test the files and then post the links here.

*EDIT2*

The files are validated.

32bit installer

md5sum: 818bc531fde25429b1561e2ed535c37f

64bit installer
http://ps.fuceekay.com/PlaneShift_CBV0.3.019-x64.bin
md5sum: 779a0af81af5ad8fda7dcce9591f27fc

If you are interested in a win32 mirror, feel free to ask me.

Complaint Department / Re: Be seriously serious about server status!
« on: July 10, 2007, 10:48:02 pm »
Well what about these people: http://laanx.fragnetics.com/index.php?page=stats

There are account registrations, 30/hour. That makes to me 1020 potential developers/testers/whatever within 34 hours (are it 34h downtime?) that failed to get into the game due to lack of information.

It's okay for all people reading this thread, indeed. But don't forget these 1000+ people (until now) that surely didn't have a look into the forums.

[EDIT]

We're waiting for Talad to get back and doing some more testing until then. There is no 'how far' right now.
Thank you, this is a word!  :thumbup:

Hey.

Someone from Russia contacted me via ICQ a few hours ago, asking me what he did wrong. Well, I don't know why he didn't ask in the forums, but he thought he would have some misconfiguration in his client / PC.

Things went wrong for him:
- he didn't know about any update
- he didn't know about the alpha/beta state of the game

I guess it's not the normal acting of an new user to take the time to get into a forum or ask someone via ICQ.

Most of the comments in this thread do not attack anyone. They are just some sort of wish list. And I fully understand nearly all of the statements of users/testers.

Well the only dev who is allowed to update the news on the main-page (guess planeshift.it) is on a plane. How long can someone be on a plane? Does he make a several-times-around-the-world-trip? And what about other suggestions here? One line of text to announce some update, how long it will probably take. (There was one for the last .019 update) Everyone will be happy. And you even took time to get into the game to announce the update ingame. Why not in the forums? I was not online when the announcement happened. I started a thread because I thought the news on the hydlaa.com main page were the actual one.

Sorry, I can't get a clear thought now anymore. (I'm not drunk, just tired)

For me is clear: an update-news would never cause pain and keep things clear. Some status-update would also be kind.
(As Talad was/is still not available someone could take a minute of his time to do some message like: Well we got some troubles, but are working on them. Maybe in 2-3 days the server will be up again.) Making the community/players/testers/everyone happy. (Okay, maybe not those soon(tm) lovers)

I respect the work and time the devs put in this project, and I definitely _don't_ want to make anyone mad. Please don't misunderstand my comment.
Xordan: You gave us the message someone is on plane, so maybe give us some info about how far the update is done?

Kind regards,
Daniel

[edit after Akana's post:]
Okay, but why no official announcement? As suggested in my post above. (I'm very glad about your news, though!)

 :oops: what the hell are they doing then? Now it's too late anyway. Hope the server will be back tomorrow...

Hello!

Get a real life and leave the devs alone, so that they can do their work. The game will be ready when it is done. In other words: soon(tm). :P

With kind regards
Kaityra

Thank you for your post, sprinkling of sense. I have a real life, indeed. As I previously announced I wanted to play this evening and now I am not able to. Leave the "soon(tm)" to the people that are authorized to say it, which IMO are the devs. And even if I wouldn't have a real life, the devs would still be able to do their work, i guess.

Never mind...  :)

a downtime for updates can range from hours to weeks... what can i say... wait? ;)

I will ignore you. I trust in Xordan and the announce here. And I'll cross my fingers.

Where is he gone? Why does he do this? I guess he's still sitting in front of his computer, laughing loud about the people waiting for the server to come up.  :devil:
Just joking...

You speak out of my mind... But, hey, we'll get a shiny, brand new, mighty, whatever PlaneShift. I never played .019 before. I'm waiting super-jittery for the server to come back online...

Shame on you!

Not for a few hours at best I'd think

Thank you, I'll stop refreshing now.  :D
Erm... What does "I'd think" mean? Is that the thought of an dev? Or the feeling in your stomach?

EDIT: spelling fixed  :innocent:

I'm posting here, as many people would blame me for posting it somewhere else: [some stealth mod put the topic from the plaza to here.]

How long will the server be down?
How far are you (the devs) in percent? 50%? 20%?
I'm getting sick of waiting. I sit here having "auto-refresh" installed, refreshing the server stats page every five seconds.
Please give me some update.

It's just because I planned the whole evening to play planeshift, and now the server is down (for good reason, though)

Linux Specific Issues / Re: Sound freezes everywhere except PS
« on: July 09, 2007, 06:23:27 pm »
Well, I'm using ALSA. I run Teampeak 2 through aoss (alsa-oss) and it works fine. In my control center ALSA is the only option chosen. (Not AUTO or something else)
But "aoss /usr/local/PlaneShift/psclient" doesn't change anything to the issue. Still frozen system sound.

Do you know another way to activate software mixing? Maybe directly in some KDE control menu? I'm not sure, but I think these two tutorials didn't do what they should.

Thank you!

Wish list / Maintenance announce page
« on: July 08, 2007, 10:56:01 pm »
I wish there would be a maintenance announce site.
Some small website with a blog in it, or a suboage of planshift.it, just to know how long the server will be down.

Maybe some kind of message like this:

Server down for maintenance from now until 2007-07-08 10pm GMT.

For planned downtimes similar:

Server down for reboot from 2007-07-08 10pm GMT until 2007-07-08 10:15pm GMT.

So I could know if I should wait for the server to come online again, or I should go to bed  :)
I think a message like this you won't need more than 2 minutes to make me (and maybe many more) happy.

Thank you for your comments!

Daniel
