Re: New & raw web based Dominion II game server
 
hmm, that's a strange result for biggame, which was working fine before.

perhaps someone updated to 2.11 and it caused this fault??

edit: the toolsfools game has also disappeared.

as well, I don't seem to be able to connect to the new page? (usine IE 6. maybe i've got some setting messed up)

Game Destiny has also gone bye-bye.

The link from the old moshansen page is "http://www.mosehansen.dk/dom2beta.pl" but the link you posted here (that works) is "https://www.mosehansen.dk/cgi-bin/dom2beta.pl". I just wanted to point that out.

I started a new game on the beta page to see how it works.

Edit- It seems the game is listed as "stopped" and not "Open". How can people join the game I just made?

The link is fixed now. Thanks!

The "Big Game 2" had problems because the name contained spaces. I have fixed this; so now game names can contain spaces.

And regarding all the games dying right now: It is because someone connects using a newer client. I'm downloading the patch right now, so this should be fixed in an hour for newly (re)startet games.

For games under the old system: I really would like them to move them to the new system. I will do this in stages, starting with just one game: WarsOfGaia. You should see no difference, except that the game wil be listed at the new pages.

And now I'm going to make some coffee http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

OK, the server is updated now. Note that spaces-in-game amazingly broken in this new Version. So all spaces get converted to _ before dominion gets 'em!

And we got our scoreboard! That's very cool http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Oh, I forgot to write: To start the Big Game 2 game, go into e.g. My Games, select the game and click "restart game". Yes, I know, it should've been a HTTP POST rather than a HTTP GET, but it was late. So you will get error messsaages if you reload the page.

i'm a little confused. I login using the new link but I do not see any games. I seem to only have the options to logout, create new, and change player data.

WarsOfGaiai has been migrated succesfully. Considering that the most of the old games seems to have crashed in any case, I will migrate the rest, hopefully today.

Please note that I'll be gone from friday morning (GMT-!) to monday noon. Hopefully, the server will stay operational :-)

Keep the comments coming --- I'll try to implement as much as possible :-D

I'm in the Orania game as Pangaea. Perhaps it should get its own thread?

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">option for turning off graphs in new game creation?

ps. does this mean that all the old games will become functional again? If so, can your server also deal w/ the new games being created?

thanks for all your work, btw.

Edit: ok, I found the old games on the new pages. However, while BigGame has the nations listed, it is flagged as "stopped" and I can not connect. ToolsFools, on the other hand, is flagged as "in progress" yet has no nations listed, and so I can't connect there either.

has anyone managed to get an old game going?
