PWMAngband 1.1.5 is out!

[PowerWyrm]

I just checked with 7-zip (all other extractors won't work since the files are uploaded on an Unix server), and indeed the server file is corrupted. It's in fact an upload problem.
I reuploaded the file. It should be valid now.

I can still use my home server, but I get an "unknown packet type" error connecting to your server.

Edit: got it to work somehow.

[Ardor]

I still get packet error on the wyrmband.ath.cx server.

[PowerWyrm]

You cannot connect to the "wyrmband" server. It still runs the "beta" version of 1.1.5 which is totally incompatible with the latest release.
As explained in this post, if you download the 1.1.5 client/server, you can only play on 1.1.5 servers. If you want to play on a 1.1.5 beta server (not recommended), you must use the old 1.1.5 beta client.

[PowerWyrm]

Seems that the wyrmband server got updated. You should try again, it should work now.

[Ardor]

I did update to the non-beta 1.1.5.

I get a ramdom error messages on all the 1.1.5 (non-beta) servers, though once in a while it works, and still no problem on my own server.

[PowerWyrm]

What kind of random message?
I suggest you donwload not only the client, but the lib and sound packages too. Backup your *prf files from /lib/user and reinstall client + lib + sound in a clean directory.

[Ardor]

That didn't work. I mostly get unknown packet type error, but sometimes disconnected from server error before I can do anything.

[PowerWyrm]

Strange...
Tonight I'll put my test server up in debug mode. Try to connect with your client when you see powerwyrm.dyndns.org up, I'll try to figure out what error gets triggered...

[Ardor]

This time it gave a "server did not respond" message.

[PowerWyrm]

Yeah I know... I was watching TV and when I came back to check my server, I had been disconnected from the Internet (problem with my provider) and I couldn't connect again during the whole evening. You'll have to check tonight again...

I've totally re-downloaded the server files for wyrmband.ath.cx, if the problem persists, I will post the logs on here.

Don't bother... build 2 should be out today ;)

Haha alright,
Also, is there a way to make this game run in the background on my computer? Or on start up? I live in the middle of nowhere, and power surges/minor outages are common, would be nice not to have to manual turn on the server every time it happens... I forget 90% of the time.

[PowerWyrm]

Just put a link to the server in your "start" subfolder...
