  1. It would be great if they turned it on, but I wouldn't trust that they would keep it on - so I vote no!
  2. So there goes my hopes of a single player version ... I don't suppose I can put in a very low priority feature request - encrypt the database or something so that you can freely distribute it?... I know the decryption part will have to be in the SVN somewhere, but there must be something that can be done!
  3. I would love to get a server running so I can play solo and basically have a mess around on my own time! I would love to have a copy of the latest schema please!
  4. That makes perfect sense! I still do not understand why you get less XP yourself for exploring - but I see you get more in total, which makes perfect sense. Thank you very much.
  5. Hi I am not sure if I am being stupid or if this is a bug... I was in a group with someone else, doing exploring around Aragoth, and on average, I got about 800-~1200 XP per navigation point. In the group, it flashed up saying "Discovered xx 420 Explore experience earned (300 + 120 group bonus)" or similar. Does that mean it is saying I got 420, or 840?... Either way, I am sure that I was getting more XP on my own and I do not understand it. Is this a bug, or am I reading it wrong?
  6. ... I am playing the game inside VMWare Workstation... It is a business laptop and I don't want any trace of the game on it! The latest version of VMware works very well with Direct X, and with the game being quite old, it works better inside the VM than it did on my machine at the time! However, I wish I could macro - I spent about 6+ hours playing non stop repetitive killing to raise about 20ish levels before the 48 hour roll back!... but I wouldn't even know where to begin to macro in a 3d game... well beyond me! - and of course, if it is against the rules, I wouldn't even if I could.
  7. I understand that - I just saw on another thread somewhere, someone saying about building single player and coming up against MYSql errors / tables not found etc. I guessed from that and you that I would not be able to play... but I wanted to at least get as far as the error or try to understand the whole emulator/process a bit more... Looks like I failed at both!
  8. Right - it was in one of the readme files about Visual Studio 6 which is why I thought it needed it (Thought I was going mad...). Anyway, I tried opening and building it with VS6, and it just failed with random errors - as I said, I have never been able to get other peoples projects working! No idea what I do wrong.... I built it with Visual Studio 2008 and it built straight away. However, I just had no idea what to do after that! I ran the exe file that was generated (and tried the one that was already there in the bin directory of SVN) but the client failed to connect and I read a error in the server saying "Someone is trying to login using version 0.0 of sockettest" or similar. Oh well I guess no single player for a while!... Unless someone knows how to fix this?
  9. I see all the .cs files however, I have no idea how I got it into my head, but I just really assumed that this was a Visual Studio 6 project - I will install and try to build now! Thanks
  10. Is there any guides on how to build this?... or just get me moving along the right path? I downloaded via SVN and found my old copy of Visual Studio 6 - I installed and tried to build a project file I found but just came up with errors. ... I can write code myself, save and re open projects, but I have NEVER had luck working from other peoples projects, I just don't know what to do, what to set etc... drives me mad! Not blaming the devs or anything - I know it is only a stress test and not final (I am guessing that characters will be wiped before final ), but I lost about 20 levels with the rollback and exploring every object in a number of systems - Basically, I love this game and played non stop! I really do not want to do that again if I can help it and would love to just play locally, whenever I want. As I previously said, I don't group the only thing I will be missing will be the chat (which I do like) however, I can always use the forum!
  11. Thanks everyone!... Missed a work deadline by playing and all for nothing - but really happy it is back!
  12. Not if your character is only a few days old and you were pretty much playing 24x7 to explorer and level like crazy
  13. Has anyone asked any of the original guys?... Do any of the original guys know about your efforts?... I am sure that the original people working at Westwood who got shutdown and fired are not exactly happy with EA - I am not saying that they do anything illegal and hand over source code (if they had it), but there must be someone willing to have a chat and answer basic questions like this! As a newbie here, I don't want to annoy anyone, but perhaps it is worth sending off a "community" driven email to Petroglyph games giving our best wishes and just asking a few questions which people may have?
  14. I think it is MySQL from what I saw in the SVN (but still no idea how to get it working!).
  15. Lol, I hope not - I have only been playing for a few days and got up to level 53 (I think), basically from staring at my monitor playing all day long... forgot how addicted I get to games like this! I don't really want to have to do that again for a long time! ...If they are gone for good, I don't think I will restart until this is launched for good / out of stress test... or just play single player if I ever learn how to build from SVN!
