Wanted: A few brave testers

Post by Orleron » Tue Jun 08, 2004 2:17 pm

The organization: CoPaP
The world: Toril
The region: Moonsea and Phlan

We need you, the players to help test Moonsea as the next possible world to link to CoPaP, and our first FR setting server.

The address:
68.148.216.199:5121

The hakpaks:
linked off of the Moonsea homepage, which is linked off of the copap.org front page. (They will shortly be going to CoPaP's standard haks.)

If you please, could you now all go to Moonsea and have a look? The more thorough you are, the better. Moonsea is HerMyT's place, and it will likely be the next place to link. Things to not worry about yet:

* The world is still in development, so don't worry so much about how much STUFF there is to do.
* The world has just started to go online, so don't worry so much about the lack of players. (Worry more if you see epic characters running around.)

Things to check out:
* XP, which I hear still needs one final tweak
* gold
* merchants
* treasure drops
* general quality

In general, you want all these above things to be as close to the values that they have in the rest of CoPaP as possible.

The mod should have about 250 areas and it should be getting as many as 500 more very soon, because they've been saving up a lot of work.

Send feedback to me or any other CoPaP leader: Themicles, Red Golem via PM.

On a side note, I checked the server status page on the CoPaP website last night:

100 Players online at once! Not sure if that's the record, but it's pretty impressive.

Keep up the good work gang!

aaha.....ahahaaaha......ahahahahahahahaha

192.168.x.x are LAN addresses. That address won't work for anyone other than people on the same local network as the server itself. So you may actually want to tell everyone the machines WAN address rather than its local address otherwise no-one will be able to connect :wink:

ah shit, you're right. I didn't look at the address. I just pasted it.

I'll get back to you and edit the post.

Meh, beware of 168.192.X.X and 10.X.X.X too.
Sorry about laughing, I just find it ammusing, but still a few ranks below picures on the net pointing to //C:/Documents and Settings/Jim/Jim's Files/Web/egg.gif :)

damn everyone beat me to it. I was going to ask when they were able to put the new server up on my private network without me knowing.

Woohoo! Another way to waste my time! Because Avlis, Hala, Rockhome and Abyss just aren't enough to keep me neglecting my wife and friends! :D

Seriously, though, I'd love to help out in some way, and since my computer literacy is basically zilch, testing seems like a good way. Soon as I'm back from vacation, I'd be happy to get in on this.

Become friends with your wife! Then you can consolidate all your time with her, thus halveing social time required away from avlis! The next step of course is to convince her to play Avlis too!

That is my opinion, not nessasarily anyone else's opinon, might just be, but that would be a coincodence, and damnit, sometimes the crap I write is not even my opinion either.

Trust me, I've tried... (getting her to play Avlis, that is :lol: )

I don't think wild horses could drag her in front of my computer for anything other than checking her email, though. Also, we only have one computer, so that would cut into my time as well.

And gods help the first person who hit on my wife's char... :evil:

*bump*

Hey all... give us a hand with this compliance test. The address is fixed, and the quicker this gets done, the quicker Moonsea can come aboard.

It is in the same pack as the HAKs. Perhaps you copied it to your HAK folder by mistake? :wink:
Life is never as bad as you think it is, although that doesn't help at the time.
