IONCROSS Server Shutdown

Hey guys, just an FYI....

If you haven't heard, I've shut down the IONCROSS server to the public today. We're using it to further test and develop the new IONCROSS mod. The server will become public again when we're happy that our new mod is bug-free and balanced properly.

Character accounts from the IONCROSS server will be transferred to Bobway. As soon as I know the name of the server where he sets them up, I'll let you all know.

To my valued IONCROSS players, thanks for enjoying my server, and I promise we'll be back and better than ever as soon as we can with the new mod, IONCROSS Freelancer: Total War.

Thanks again!

It's been an honor playing on IONCROSS. Many server admins can learn heaps from how Joe Boomz runs his place.

First, thanks Revan

Next, the player transfer between mine and Bobway's server did not work, because of the different server account ID's. Since I can't send Bobway my CD for him to reinstall his Freelancer (and thus lose all his EXISTING accounts), the player transfer is a no-go.

Bobway, being the great server admin he is, has been taking care of my old players one by one if they requested it, and is spending a great deal of time editing accounts and deleting old accounts to facilitate their move to his server. Thank you Bobway, for taking care of these great people. They were good on my server and I'm sure they'll be just as good to you.

Joe! You CAN transfer as long as you start from scratch one of the two servers! This would be your new server. If you get a new account.cfg file (I believe) then you give the entire old Multiplayer directory to Bobway and he takes your account.cfg. Then you create a new one. Either a reinstall on the old server or an install on some other 'puter and take that account.cfg. It is the files under the Multiplayer directory that count to decrypt the player saved game files and their directories.

If you intend on using any old saved game files on the new server (with a different account.cfg or whatever flserver uses as a FL MP ID for the server) then you have to rename the file to a file name created on the new server.

Just trying to help...
