Will do! Meanwhile, I have a question about the server part... not at all important but I'm sure it's easy to resolve. Currently I have all my eggs in one basket, both the server software itself and the game download data (the files I created using your manifest script).
The dirtsand.ini file reads
- Code: Select all
File.Host = 123.45.67.89
Auth.Host = 123.45.67.89
Game.Host = 123.45.67.89
...
File.Root = /somefolder/data
Auth.Root = /somefolder/authdata
Sdl.Path = /somefolder/SDL
Age.Path = /somefolder/ages
However, I'd love to host the manifest ages on an external web host. So I uploaded the game data to my external site, and changed the dirtsand.ini file to:
- Code: Select all
File.Host = 123.45.67.89
Auth.Host = 123.45.67.89
Game.Host = https://uru.mydomain
...
File.Root = /data
Auth.Root = /somefolder/authdata
Sdl.Path = /somefolder/SDL
Age.Path = /somefolder/SDL
I verified that
https://uru.mydomain/data contains the correct files... yet when I start the client, it errors out with
- Code: Select all
[File] 987.65.43.21/61261 requested invalid manifest /data/ExternalPatcher.mfs
Again, I verified that
https://uru.mydomain/data/ExternalPatcher.mfs is fully accessible, so again I assume I made an error somewhere
Is this an easy fix or would you suggest I wait till I get this client going properly?
