Anybody got info on the "Dementia" server?

Want help in running a persistent server? Want to setup a gaming session? Look no further!

Anybody got info on the "Dementia" server?

Anybdody know anything about a server called something like "Dementia". I think that was the name, it was up for a while yesterday (Thursday). I think the player limit was 40 and PVP was turned off. I'm trying to find out who runs it and when it will be back up because I was getting a real good ping and I made a bunch of money on there the other nite (please tell me that I didn't spend all that time for nothing!).

To be honest I would avoid any and all servers that are not running a legitament copy of the game. Very few actual servers are.

Nomad runs the server, "Dementia Solaris". It has been running on a relatively low spec machine as a cpu/mem load test. The server was taken down to lower the play limit for now. The machine running the server will be upgraded sometime next week and then the player limit will be increased when the new box is ready for it.

There will also be a short downtime when the game hits retail, for a reinstall with the retail version. There will be some tweaking when the new box comes in to find the best player limit for gameplay. After the new box and retail version come in there shouldn't be anymore downtimes.

Character accounts will be moved to the retail install, no worries.

Edit: server should be up right now.

yeah, that's the one I was playing on. hey Pluto, you know how I could get in touch with Nomad (e-mail, AIM, etc.)? I want to ask him if he will be transferring the save-games to the new box cuz I played on there for a while the other nite and I really hope all that progress doesn't get lost. Oh, and thanks for the heads up.

Hello,

I think Pluto summed up the current and future status quite well. It is currently a test server until the retail version is released and is migrated to a new machine. All user accounts will be transfered so don't worry.

For server info and contact goto http://games.gtw.net or email me at [email protected]
