NEW sever: Chicago 24-7 4 CPU, 4 Gig RAM, Datacenter Hosted.

Sun May 11, 2003 4:35 pm by Chicago247_admin

I am happy to report that the server is back online with the orginal accounts after running some specific tests which we had to do from a "fresh" start. All accounts created by NEW players have been merged with the orginal accounts. New plaayers (last 12 hours or so) may need to find our server again if you have the "hide servers never visited" option checked. Right now, only accounts created by players during the recent testing, and who already had an account on the orginal Chicago 24-7, will loose those newer accounts if the share the same character name. If your account did not migrate please email us and I will massage the file system to merge them together, but I think all made it over without problems.

Other news is that the FL-Admin has been installed and tested. Thanks to Fiik for that excellent utility. Fiik also runs a popular, stable Freelancer server worth checking out if you have not done so already. Tonight I am going to see if closed jumpholes/gates can be opened, do not know yet if this is possible, but I am willing to give it a shot. So, be warned that there will be serveral server reboots in the early CST (GMT +6) hours starting around 00:30 till 04:00 at the latest. Until then, hit the server hard for I am running performance logging to get a baseline of CPU and memory ussage.

I would love to try this server out - however, due to my current network setup, i cannot connect to the main list server, so i have to either connect using the All-seing Eye, or enter an IP address manually. I cannot see chicago 24-7 in the server list in ASE, i was wondering if you could post the ip and port of your server here? or could you possibly mail it to me at [email protected]

thankyou.

All, note the new changes made to the first message posted. It has been updated recently. The server IP has now been posted there.

It seems the password was changed as the one I was given in the email no longer works.

Mon May 12, 2003 4:59 pm by Chicago247_admin

Holiday, we change the password for about fifteen minutes to test something. It is now set back to the orginal password and you should be able to get online without problems.

Thank you. You can ignore the redunant email then. I really like your server. Sorry to be a pest.

Would it be too much to suggest to the admin of this server to apply the MP Neutrality Mod? When no one is there to eliminate the excessive ly spawned pirates, especially around jump gates and holes, no matter what I do I will get killed with an empty cargo hold! Please make this server a trade-friendlier server. I really like playing here... but losing a hell lot of my finances can be such a put-off.

Darkness,

I think for now we will leave the rep standings as they are, which is orginal. As a trader, the criminals do make life a bit difficult sometimes. You might look into raising your rep with the criminals by a few offensive acts against the authorites and corps. If you do this a few times, your rep will become neutral with them. After this, the criminals may occasionaly demand cargo, but not attack you on sight. You can also hire players in the game for help. A few if the RES clan are online, and there main goal is to escort traders. There is a thread for them on the MP fourm.

Due to heavy mod use/cheating, server has been password protected.
Please email [email protected] for access to server.
Thanks,

Hello all,

Sorry to report that the Chicagofree247 server is now de-commissioned. This is in part due to the fact that the FL Server patch is taking too long to come out, (if it ever does), and we can no longer dedicate time to administer server.
Sorry for the short notice, but server has been shut down. We will NOT be restarting this server at any point in the future. To those gamers that had accounts on our server, we hope you had fun. To all of you, I highly reccomend EVE-online as a substitute for your space gaming pleasure. Both Iceman and I have migrated to this game, and it (buggy as it may be) is a great deal of fun.
Best of luck to you all.
Sincerely,
Idorego & Iceman
