Mywormnet? help!

[V1RvSgart]

hello, i want to know if someone can give me a tutorial on how to post online mywormnet server and how to create my own with some custom channels, I've seen in the page mywormnet CyberShadow and also in a post on this forum, the file was in the CyberShadow page, download it, configure it and everything, everything worked well but had the detail that could not host games.

The file that was on this forum to download it but there were two links, if one does not complement the other and I download the two, about which said source code and another that was all the files to configure the server, but when I enter it does not show me the channels and the / motd command.

Any help?

PD: sorry my bad english :p

Hmm tried to.. no sucess weird i checked the code and there is some code host-about... When i click "Host" it says "You can't be a host" :)

CyberSHadow u know what it's wrong?

Btw tried with both versions. MyWormnet from cyber and the modifiec one.

And another question.. Why does it need to have ASP and not PHP? The game is looking for .asp files only? even when the code inside it is PHP doesn't make any sence. And the weird thing is i deleted ASPredirect file and i still connect to my localhost login.asp file... rofl are they cached or smthing? ... total lost... delphi doesn't help

If your HTTP (80) and IRC (6667) ports are free, setting up a MyWormNET server is as simple as:
1) Download/unpack MyWormNET
2) Enter your public IP in WNServer.ini (instead of "localhost")
3) Run WNServer.exe

If you don't do step 2), the server will still work for you but not for anyone else.

After that, make a modified ServerList.htm with a link to your IP (for example, <a href="http://123.45.67.89/wormageddonweb/">My awesome server</a>) and give it to people who want to join your server. They'll need to install it in their W:A directory (under Graphics\ServerLobby).

If you are having trouble, please post relevant logs and the contents of your WNServer.ini. If you're trying to run WNServer alongside Apache and/or another IRC server, please mention exactly what you did to attempt to get it to work.

Hmm my problem was exactly that, i put localhost and it didnt let me be the host.. weird =D

Well with my IP it worked perfectly (i didnt try exactly to host, i just clicked Host button) Gona give it a look later.

Sorry for the triple post!

I managed on linux server with wine! i just need to edit the index file to the port 90 since i set http port to that one...

Next problem, i can't join the channel (this on linux ofc on windows works just great) IRC problem ? I think the wormnet doesn't work very well lol i just deleted that ASP redirect thing and it still worked just fine... i deleted all ASP files of all wormnet and still i am able to access the login.asp how is that possibel? cached files? how? ... or the own .exe includes the files itself? its so stupid i dont have any idea.

And about IRC bot how would u make a game? Btw tried with telnet connect to the IRC and it keeps giving and error "Bad password" hmm

Sorry for alll this doubts =D just trying to understand it and maybe help out.

If you would have read the instructions carefully, you'd know that the .ASP files simply redirect requests to a HTTP server running on another port. They are only needed if you have another webserver running on port 80, but still want clients to access MyWormNET pages through that port.

The problem is if you try bind a port which is being in use it will don't turn on, its like you are forced to have a PORT which you can use.

Anyway i decided stop trying to run the server... One of my friends is trying to recoding it to C++ language.. i will wait and lets hope he manage doing it.

So while i wait i decided go for the basic host a game with the IRC bot. I managed to connect to the WormNET IRC server, but still can't understand how you host a game with it.. I didn't analysed WormNET and WormNAT source code yet, all i did in this few time i had was making a C++ IRC bot connect to the Bot, Join the channel and Filter the messages such QUIT PART JOIN PRIVMSG.

If you can give some types / advices how to host a game by IRC i would be greatfull, and if you explain how is it possible i would be even more greatfull :D
