Slovenka Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 I've played the game for over a month and tonight I've been getting the Failed to connect message. Could it be that the server is down or is it something with my computer. Also I have a friend who was never able to connect to the server at all. Any ideas how to fix this? Help would be muchly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sporb Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 disable any firewalls and try it. if it still dont go, server might be down or the adress is wrong (unlikely unless the version is really old or youve changed it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slovenka Posted March 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Still not working. It started last night when I tried to play with my brother. We have a home network and created an account on his computer. The server connected us both but then soon enough it stopped working and neither of us could connect back. I've checked my firewall settings, Ufo is listed as an allowed exception so I don't think the problem lies there. It's happened to me once or twice before that I could not connect but that was just real short. Now it's not been working for the past 12 hours and I tried plenty times.

Serge Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 Hmmmm so many days... You are loosin peoples...This can't be helped unfortunately. The hosting for ufo2000 server was provided for free and we can't demand anything. The source of the problem is being investigated now, I don't know any details but the current downtime was not planned. Maybe someone can start a backup server for the time being.

Grimshrat Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 I have started again a server on 82.211.39.133:2000Maybe someone could point ufo2000.xcomufo.com to 82.211.39.133 so people can connect to default serverOr if any developper wants to setup the server himself, I can give access.

vozice_09 Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 I have few available FreeBSD servers where can Ufo2000 stable run... Is somewhere any guide how install and configure ufo2k server? What all need for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cirix Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 I have few available FreeBSD servers where can Ufo2000 stable run... Is somewhere any guide how install and configure ufo2k server? What all need for it?Just do a make server in the sources and run ufo2000-srv. You need sqlite3 libraries. But the 82.211.39.133:2000 server mentioned on the home page is working, so there's no need to start another one. Also for the reason that everybody is immediately disconnecting this one, when there is no other player That's the simple way to make sure that one can meet no players bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wisniewski Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Well, we are getting on our last legs server-wise..

Somewhere players can go that will (virtually) always be accessible and up. From there people can agree to play a game and run their own server or use one of the servers listed in the channel topic.
