I've been working on one of my old zones for the past week with a few friends, and for some reason now when I load the zone its not working for them. The problem started out with the zone just crashing all the time, so I redownloaded the server.zip and now its just not working. Me and my bots connect right away, and when they try to re download the zone its not on the list, and the IP doesn't work.

Id suggest to post your ini files here so they can be checked.

Alrite I found the problem...the news.txt was too big or something...I used rich text format and I wanna keep it..is there anyway to fix this problem?

[Purge]

You may use RTF but rename the whole file to news.txt.

[EliteAssassin]

Alrite...but even when I do that doesn't it make it news.txt.rtf?

[Purge]

No, you have to rename the actual file extension.

[EliteAssassin]

I don't see how to change the file extension..I can name it to news.txt but it stays rtf, and I look in properties and I cant see how to change it

[Maverick]

In Windows File Explorer disable hiding of file extensions for known file types:
Go to Tools / Folder Options / View tab / Uncheck 'Hide extensions for known file types' which is located directly below the 'Hidden files and folders' options.

After that Press OK and then try to rename the file again (to .txt).

Change [Directory] Port back to 4991.

The IP field can just be IP=sscentral.subspace.inet.fi the rest are all dead.

Also in wordpad you can save using quotes to force and extension, for example "news.txt" including the quotes.

[Maverick]

[Smong]

It's the same one. sscentral.sscx.net also points to the same IP.
