The Tharin Server
Hi All,
I've decided to put up a Vega Strike server for everyone's enjoyment - I'm calling it the "Tharin Universe". For now, it's running the out-of-the-box configuration based off of the SVN build, r13253. The backend is Debian, and it's located in Montréal, Québec.
Home/Account Registration:
http://tharin.industrience.com
Game Server:
tharin.industrience.com:6777 (67.212.92.235:6777)
TeamSpeak3 Voice Chat (Tharin CommNet)
tharin.industrience.com:9987
voice client download
Players can choose their faction, and start with either the Llama or the Dodo, just like career mode in a normal game. Progress is saved on the server under your protected account.
Daily downtime occurs from 4:30 - 4:45 am Eastern Time for server backups and universe respawn.
Post issues/discussion items here.
You can find me on IRC - #vegastrike on Freenode, or PM me.
Enjoy the game
Original build r12574,r12930

Re: The Tharin Server
Holy HECK!
I can't believe you did this! No really, how did you do this? I am wondering how you made this website compatible with the Vega Strike game, and a duplicate account creation thing as the old one that is on this site.
Anyways... You may be seeing me on this.
Also, are you planning on making this permanent? How long is this going to be up?

Re: The Tharin Server
Radunz, I'm not sure, but post in the help forum, I'm sure somebody knows the answer, they are usually very helpful. I don't think your post will get much exposure here.Radunz wrote:I Realy wanna join, but am having an very annoyng problem, everytime i go multiplayer i got a CTD(always when its loading background\green_down.bmp or green_back.bmp) i tried replace those files, but didnt worked.if anyone can help me plz!
Well I'd love to take credit for it, but it comes standard with the game now. All I did was edit the text the website displays. I would like to edit the ships one can select, also, but one thing at a time.Laraso wrote:Holy HECK!

As of today, there are 18 registered users. Heidistein is the newest. Welcome, all, glad you signed up
Two comments:
1) If we scheduled some time to have a meet-up, would people want to play?
2) Any suggestions on editing the universe?

Re: The Tharin Server
So just a newb question, but is there any way to start writing scripted 'missions' that could be accomplished? Maybe a semi-campaign to get users hooked into the system so that they are pulled into the universe with some kind of starting missions set instead of just getting dropped into the world and let to do their own thing. I have years of programming experience for MS products and I doubt it counts for much for this project, but I am willing to lend a hand wherever I can.

Go to http://tharin.uni.cc/
Click on Register/Update
Select the ship and faction you want, then type in a callsign for yourself and a password (it's encrypted, I don't get to see it).
Launch the game and click on Multiplayer, then click on Internet Server and type in tharin.uni.cc with port 6777 and your callsign/password
If you want to voice chat with people who are in game, then download teamspeak from [url]www.http://teamspeak.com/[/url] and add server tharin.uni.cc with port 8767

Re: The Tharin Server
Are you talking about multiplayer-specific missions? The same cargo/fighter missions from the cargo computer that are available in single player are also available in multiplayer. I don't believe there are any scripted co-op missions though. I haven't checked if the single player scripted missions are available in multiplayer, either.CaptainMurphy wrote:So just a newb question, but is there any way to start writing scripted 'missions' that could be accomplished?

Re: The Tharin Server
Hey guys i just joined the server under the name matt.
Im having trouble getting my spec drive to work properly, would take me and hour to get to a ship 100km from me, instead of my speed rapidly increasing, it just increases at the same old pace.
I did buy a spec drive on atlantis but no luck. some help would be nice. also i cant see my ship in dock, or in space. help? thanks:)

Re: The Tharin Server
Just tried it yesterday. The problem occurs only in the stable release version (0.5.0), the SVN works fine.

Yeah, you need to have the SVN version. See here to get it.Althalos wrote:Just tried it yesterday. The problem occurs only in the stable release version (0.5.0), the SVN works fine.
Getting SVN:

For Windows people, I'd recommend SmartSVN for an SVN client. It's free and super easy.

Re: The Tharin Server
BTW, Mets. When I was trying out the server I accidentally crashed the game by alt+tabbing while having GameCam turned on (seems like a common problem with GC).
My attepts to log in always end with this socket error since then. Can you check it on the server side?

Re: The Tharin Server
Indeed, that did kill the server. The server is now back up, and I made a chronjob to check twice a day that it is running.
I myself, before putting this online, have killed the server on several different occasions. One was trying to chat as the game was loading and attempting to place my ship somewhere in orbit! Unfortunately, there's nothing that I can do about bugs except restart the server. The Dev Team has stopped all development of the multiplayer platform, I'm afraid. I would be happy to submit bug logs to those who did want to improve the multiplayer experience.
Also, if anybody has any suggestions, please feel free to let me know.

Re: The Tharin Server
As you may have noticed, there have been ongoing DNS issues. This was due to a recent update to Apache vhosts, which made the server no longer compatible with the way dynDNS forwards domains. I've since moved the domain to http://www.tharin.uni.cc and everything should now be working. Hopefully, there won't be any further issues. Sorry for any downtime people experienced.vertighel wrote:Hello againg. What's up with the server?

In the case of downtime again, though the account server won't work, you can still access the multiplayer server directly by typing in the IP address and using port 6777 (see first post).
