    Default New Multiplayer fakeserver

    The fakeserver is offline.

    Konnichiwa.

    Given the recent developments concerning the fakeserver, I decided to host the server temporarily on one of my private machines. I'll look into the possibilities to rent a Windows Server to keep it permanent.
    From now on you can reach the fakeserver under:
    shogun-fakeserver.dnsdojo.org

    You need to change your internet.cfg file in the main Shogun folder to this:
    ChatserverIPAddress = shogun-fakeserver.dnsdojo.org
    ChatserverPort = 8793
    NewsserverIPAddress = daphne.eagames.co.uk
    NewsserverPort = 8797
    ShogunTotalWarWebsite = www.totalwar.com
    I'll also set up a site for information here.

    Cant seem to connect. Internet.cfg is set per the above. Perhaps too busy? I hope so.

    No worries. I've seen it, too and don't approve of it.
    The funny thing is, since I made this announcement, the server of Hewhogotbanned is up again.
    Well, I don't need/want any competition. I will keep the server running and the community can decide what to do.
    Personally I would find it very sad if this incident would mean the end of an era.
    I'll do my share to keep MP alive.

    Hiya ShinKamiizumi-san . It's been a long time--nice to see you here.

    Nice response to the community need, R'as .

    Shambles server is still operational and he reports that it will remain so whilst ever it is still needed. He also states that if the community wishes to utilise R'as server then that is fine and providing that he is welcome, will join us on that server. Im posting in order to ascertain which server we will be using as a community.The last thing we want is the fragmenting of our small group. I will inform Shambles of our decision in due course.

    I suggest we use R'as al ghul's server, since Shambles won't be able to post here to announce any problems with his.

    Is there any technical reason to prefer one over the other?

    Well, as I've said I'm running it on a private machine.
    It's not an optimal solution for me but I hadn't offered it if I wasn't serious about it.
    Personally I am not involved in the Shambles-problem. I had my brawl with him months ago about the routing issue, that's all.
    I just saw the panic and anger about the whole server incident and reacted.
    After reading Gaijin post I thought, whatever, lets talk to Shambles and clear things up but than I went over to his site and read this.
    It appears that the fight is still going on and I don't really want to be involved.

    If you ask me, all of you and Shambles are welcome on my server 24-7. (so far I haven't seen anybody)
    But I really would like to hear some more opinions from the community on how to solve this.

    Myself I don't agree with Shambles reactions to Tosa. I mean, it is out of line. However, I still consider him a friend, and hope he will join stw mp on whatever server.

    A HUGE thanks to R'as for setting this up.

    And, Pleased to meet you, Shin-Kamiizumi! Good to have another Shinkage player around, it might even stop Iguana from being lazy :P and join stw mp again as well

    yeah Drisos m8... can you log in??

    it seems much easier and "crispier" to me than when i was logging in on the old server... if you have exactly the same setup as me, which it sounds you do, then it must either be an issue with your isp or some human error...


    please try m8, it seems like you really enjoy the game...

    Default Re: New Multiplayer fakeserver

    I indeed love the game and really miss playing those mp battles and the nice sphere in the foyer..

    oki! I will give this server a try. If it doesn't work, I will continue to try other things. I am currently trying to create a fat32 partition with Partition manager. Need one e-mail from one of their staff first though. If that also fails I can try installing a second OS, and run shogun on that. I could also try disabling 'services' or even installing programmes to see if they caused a conflict with WE.

    but, something which should come first, because it sounds logic: I need to disable the fact that I automatically am connected to the net when I boot up. Someone mentioned that XP needs 'safe login' to login to certain systems.. ah well I can't explain it very good. But it sounds logic, it is only with people who have XP, but not with all who have XP.

    It would be nice if people could report successful logins or failed ones.

    I hear that some still have issues connecting.
    I want to be sure that it's not an error on my part.

    sometimes it would take 30 attempts on the old server...

    I think the consensus of opinion is that we use R'as server (even though there was limited response). Ill let Shambles know that we are moving

    Thanks for allowing us to play R'as m8 I hope to see u tonight on your server.

    I met Gaijin Sat/Sunday and we had a nice little chat.
    Nobody else joined us and since we both can't host....

    I heard that the login is a little smoother, so Drisos may give it a try.
    Those who run win98, I've heard that it logs in immediatly.

    Hosting games with a router is still an issue. Those who can, may change their
    settings, so that they use their router like a modem.

    I will be able to host, but am not able to login yet

    Regarding that, anyone can tell me how to keep windows from automatically establishing connection to the internet at startup?

    I have tried on this server, but all is still the same for me :(

    Sorry to hear that drisos.

    For the internet startup thing, try control panel/network connections. You should have the option to disable it.

    Hello,

    yesterday on 16.05.06 at ca. 18:30 (gmt+2) two guys connected to the fakeserver. Sometime during that timeframe the machine hosting the server produced an error. I've no idea if this error affected the fakeserver.

    I'd like to know if there have been any problems during your stay in the lobby.
    Any feedback would be appreciated.

    The Iguana is not lazy, he just has some serious computer problems. But I am solving it. All I need is a wireless router, a new cd drive or a thingy.

    Actually, I had to build a complete new pc. The old one I use for a different game called Silent Hunter 3. Unfortunantly, this game comes with the starforce protection system that blocks some older games. The new pc is ready but the cd-player isn't the newest type. So I have to buy a new one for that. I hoped to bypass that with a thingy for STW WE. But all I can find is a russian site that has it. And my russian is a bit rusty.

    Greetings Gaijin-san, How are you these days? We haven't spoken in ages m8. And I noticed Kami is here as well. How is he doing?

    Good to see you guys.

    Btw, I went to that site and I downloaded that thingy, and guess what? It actually worked. Even on my old PC I can run STW: WE. I also got into Ras his server but no one was there. Is patch 1.2 still the one to use?

    Hi Lizzy

    Whatever the Shogun community decides, let me know so I may update the files to download for the new server on the Bear site.


    You may use our FTP server via HTML for the fake server file. 7Bear7 Clan will continue to support the MP Shogun community for alternative download site.

    For now these are the files we have....http://7bear7.com/shogun.html

    Hope everyone works things out.
