Netmech Server - Address Change

Post by Sir MMPD Radick »

If you are using the netmech build in our download section go into the directory and open the netmch.conf file and go to the bottom.

If you are using IPXNET CONNECT dosbox.game-server.cc 10000
Replace it with IPXNET CONNECT mech2.org 10001

dosbox.game-server.cc is just a pointer and it does not appear to be pointing to our address anymore. I have no control over it.

Uploaded a fixed version that replaces the dosbox.cc hostname with mech2.org.

The thread is still valid for all players who have not updated, so I think we can let some time pass before we unsticky it.

you changed in netmch.conf in the netmechdos folder the address at the bottom to make the IPX connect to mech2.org 10001?

Well, I just did a drop testwith madsonovich, and the lobby works... you might wanna come on IRC and ask for a game or something it is not likely that you will find a game if you don't come on IRC.

Edit: Sounds like you already did fix it and played madsonovich this morning.
