Does anyone have a public WOL Clone? Something I can run on my linux box?
|
Someone is creating that.
|
BHS has had one (actually more than one) for a long time now. There are at least two others that I know of also. The problem is not having a working clone, the problem is a smooth switchover from XWIS to the clone when there is an outage. The *real* problem is XWIS's instability, there should be a mirror of it that automatically comes up when there are problems. I will be talking to Olaf about this.
|
I mean for my own personal use, something i can run my personal stuff off of, not a substitute for Xwis. Ill leave that to the professionals if and when that time comes.
So are any of these public?
|
It's very hard to create it.
We have test it but with many problems
The Server isnt list in the serverlist and restarts each minute.

I'm not sure what you mean....A "personal use" xwis/wol clone? What would you do with it, "personally"? You mean you would create your on WOL-like network, and tell people to join it just to get to your server? Why not just put your server on gamespy, or publish the IP and port so that folks can +connect to it? I guess I'm just confused as to what you want, because by it's very nature, WOL isn't for personal use.

Or you know you could use Hamachi and play over LAN.

Ive completed a TC conversion including single player for renegade, i haven't posted about it yet. I need a WOLClone to make it internet ready, i have the server and unlimited bandwidth but have been unsuccessful connecting two copies over GameSpy or XWis (Of course, because its not even close to renegade anymore)

I get a "Unable to connect to westwood online" or a "Your game has been rejected" or a "You need an update in order to play online"
I know thats how it was originally, but I think XWis changed the situation.
EDIT:
Is XWis online now? I just tried again and its unable to connect.
EDIT2:
Nope

quick update for you Renegade/TS/RA2 players: Junker lets me know that XWIS author Olaf is actually at the Leipzig show, but is aware of the downtime currently affecting the XWIS/Strike-Team WOL servers (making Renegade play impossible, for example), and he's working to resolve the issue, so hopefully things'll be up again soon.

GSA?
But on GSA the number of players is very low (on WOL it is low but this is extreme low)
Moding can be real Fun...
