Since there has been a new release expect the server to go down many times. It will eventually be stablized once the devs have time for it.  :D

You probably just have bad timing.  :sweatdrop: The server has been up several times but it has gone down several times. Do you wait a few minutes with the client up to see if the server is about to come back up?

When it says that, don't just automatically close down the client. Wait about 5 mins with the client up and watch it to see if it changes to Wait. That means it is about bring itself back up. Then after it will show numbers that is when the server is up.

hello, i have just downloaded the latest version of PlaneShift (.19), but when i used the Updater all the mirrors failed and it said that the game cannot be updated. When i tried to start the game it said that the server failed. I have a Netgear WGR614v6 router and I use McAfee for my firewall. My computer easily exceeds the system requirements. I'm not sure if i have opened the ports wrong or what, but no facet of this game seems to work for me, which is frustrating because I am not new to MMORPGs. if anyone could provide me with some information about what i am doing wrong, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

It's likely that UDP port 7777 is being blocked by your router or firewall. Have you checked some help files, guides, or manuals for those applications?

Here is a link for a support page for your router model, which will help you forward ports correctly.
Here is a link on port forwarding for the McAfee application. It discusses setting up a port for Limewire, but just replace it with PlaneShift's UDP 7777.

well, now i can see the Ping of the server, but when i attempt to log in, i receive a message that i cannot connect to the server. Are my ports still blocked or is this some other problem?

It could be that you've tried when the server was experiencing a crash, or a hiccup. Stability is sometimes an issue. Check this thread (scroll to the end and take a look at "Common Problems") to see if any of those suggestions will clear things up for you.
