  1. I don't recommend you to execute a query when you kill a mob, you can just lag your server.. and a lot.

    As I said on other thread, I don't know if older game's revision has the function I used to your quest. But if you use 34083 or higher it should work.

     

    when kill with not npc.is_pc() and npc.get_race() >= 8001 and npc.get_race() <= 8055 begin
    	pc.charge_cash(count, 'cash') -- count = count of coins you want that your players receive
    	char_log(pc.get_account_id(), 'COINS_KILLING_METIN_STONE', count) -- ^same here, this will register in logs table
    end
    

    This command is running a mysql Query aswell. But it doesnt establish a new connection

  2. When they went offline they claimed to have been scammed by Voxility, the latter confiscating bought hardware and whatnot. This apparently was not the case, there has neither been any info on the lawsuit Xertonia wanted to initiate, nor did their customers ever receive the promised paybacks.

    When I had a little talk with "Alex" a.k.a. Paul, he revealed the hosting actually consisted of 20 dedicated servers, two storage arrays, and two top-of-rack switches, all of which Voxility offers both, for rent and permanent purchase with their colocation offers.

    The bandwidth Xertonia sold was best-effort bandwidth, without any garantuee.

     

    Back to present time: Xertonia.com is online and has a new design with a 2014 copyright, so they might be planning a comeback.

     

    Worldstream:

    Hosted my private servers years ago, pretty reliable and the support has always been nice, even offering a free secondary HDD when my system crashed (they never removed it afterwards).

    A friend of mine reported that once they had a disk failure and no RAID which was awful.

    They also said they were taken down with a complaint from .SG.

    I guess the nice support went away when Metin2 "admins" started to repeatedly bother the staff members with "dumb" questions - besides those kids being totally unfriendly and rude most of the time. I have seen numerous screenshots/copies of mails to WS's support staff and I can tell you I wouldn't stay nice and cooperative either.

    Today, WS is still in use for development/testing servers as those are unlikely to be found and taken down by anyone.

     

    Hetzner:

    Definitely not the right choice for Metin2 Servers. The server my former admin had was taken down in less than one week after public launch due to copyright infringement (I am not certain anyone ever filed a complaint).

     

    OVH:

    Never used, years ago it appeared to me as a "shiny plastic-thingy for some unprofessional people", well that seems to be different.

    I am getting positive feedback on them.

     

    InterNOC24:

    Reseller of Voxility. They accept PaySafeCards. The support was slow and unwilling in many cases.Uptimes were medium and we had issues sometimes - mainly because there wasn't ANY (D)DoS protection, finally driving us to migrate to ...

     

    Incloudibly:

    Best hoster I yet experienced, with fast and competent support staff. Their traffic filters are doing a good job and we never had any technical issue with the several servers we have.

    However, they are expensive, probably making them a no-go for newcomers.

    Their features are good, containing whitelisting for the protection, PTR record editing and all-time free KVM/IPMI (remote console, cold start/reset etc.) access, though the SuperMicro controller in use there sometimes bugs.

     

    Server4.pro:

    Reselling several other hosters, including WD, OVH etc. Accepts PaySafeCards. All theri VPS have soft-limitted bandwidth ("100 MBit/s on 1 GBit/s link") which is a pain.

    Linux traffic shaping/bandwidth limiting doesn't work in the virtual environment and servers get suspended when going over the contract bandwidth for more than a few minutes.

    These VPS are also suspended when the system load rises above some value. My two 6€ VPS have been suspended at least 4 times each in the last 6 months, forcing me to contact support and ask for reactivation. The VPS are sometimes rebooted without prior announcement (at least not via email) which really sucks.

    An friend of mine uses Hetzner since 2,5 years and his Server was just once "shutted down" he just renamed it switched the Server and he never heard of Tec again

    (BlackMambaMt2 as old Name was a pretty big Server about 1,5 years ago and is now still online new name wont be notoced ;) )

  3. Search for this in the source (Client -> Userinterface -> MapOutdoor.cpp):

     

    	m_bSettingTerrainVisible = false;
    	m_bDrawWireFrame	= false;
    	m_bDrawShadow		= false;
    	m_bDrawChrShadow	= false;
    
    	m_iSplatLimit = 50000;

    and set m_bDrawWireFrame to true. Now a wireframe is drawn Ingame. Its good for analyzing your map you just modelled :)

  4. Sure, I have some questions :D

    1. Do you get updates when a patch is released, for free?

    2. Do they start actually answering you once you have purchased the software?

    3. Are there more plugins and features available in the latest version (compared to 3.70 build 20120504)?

    What?? You're using 3.150 but you purchased the software? I have 3.70. Does the version number after the decimal exceed 100?

    150 > 70 :D so i think he has a newer version

  5. Its also nice for beginner servers with no good protection to have more than one login core and make it chooseable at the login interface. Cause many try to flood your Login port with ess-syn attack which can be hitting really hard. Even the syncookie installation doesnt grant 100% reliability as most of them will spoof their ip
