ATTENTION! NEW IP!

[Sir_FlapJack]

So is it jsut a problem with macs then, that's established? And if so is it fixable do you think?

 

[vanar]

yea but my computers a windows xp o.o

 

[Eric V]

*cries* Why mac why!

…ill go tinker until I figure this out….maybe ill be back with answers

 

[Eric V]

*okay* 4GB RAM memory, half a TB data storage,Dual core CPU.
I really need a better computer :/

haha, its a server man its not meant to be used for anything else besides hosting

 

[cherbert]

I think it is just a really bad place for a server since it seems many here in the states cannot connect to it.

I think our UK and European players would disagree.

But on a side note... I have put a support request into the Hosting Provider. If I can't get this resolved soon I may consider moving back to the old server pending further investigation.

Apologies to those of you who cannot get on. Please have patience as you haven't been forgotten.

Yeah I have to say I'm really loving the new server. I don't lag out nearly as much
It didn't help that my internet connection is terrible though I guess lol

 

[Sir_FlapJack]

Thanks cherbert, it's nice to know that the people who run and maintain hollow world do take these things in to serious consideration.

 

[Axell]

I'm a PC and i can't connect

 

[dracoboy2]

I'm on mac, can't connect after doing all you said cherbert. However I can connect to the TS server.

 

[lolitavomit]

I don't know if this helps, but when I tried creating a NEW server it didn't work for me, it only worked when I edited the old server.
Once again I have no idea if this is relevant or not lol, I'm no computer genius

 

[cherbert]

Out of interest.. it would appear this new server shares something in common with Hamachi which I suspect some of you have probably used or are using. Our new IP starts 5.x.x.x which is the same range as Hamachi. Therefore this could explain why you cannot find the host should you have Hamachi running as a service in the background.

Can you please turn-off or remove Hamachi and try again.

I have it running in the background and I can connect fine, but im on PC so it might work for mac users :/

 

[Itzzaboy]

I have it running in the background and I can connect fine

Same here

 

[Sir_FlapJack]

Okay wow, that actually worked, uninstalled hamachi and akami and i can now connect perfectly. Cheers Cherbert !!!

 

[Geo_08]

I'm having trouble.

I'm in yorkshire using Talk Talk.

Edit: Uninstalling hamachi.

Edit II: Fixed

And what about Windows users, I can't get on either of my pc's.

Do you have Hamachi on them?

 

[rolander97]

Removed hamachi and still nothing :/

Reboot your computer and router/modem.

Goto a Command Prompt and type... ipconfig /flushdns

and clarify what you are typing in the hostname box?

My PCs don't work (none of them, I have 2 portables and 2 regular computers)
