Cube World South African Server

[Shirou]

Morning all,

I am in the progress in setting up a new server i bought to have more controll over it when it crash or to keep it updated to the latest updated software when that is ready by today i'll be uploading a fix that will allow less crashes.

What it applies:

* Fixes a problem where you can only have 10 people on the map before it connect players to a "local" map.
* Fixes a crash problem with scouts using the ability "3"
* Fixes a crash problem when players use blank chats.

I'll keep you guys updated when that is up and running.

Hey all,

I am currently in a tough decission, here is my problem..

Firstly i was hosting Cube World on my PC which did not work out with the router settings, then i got offered to run the server by WAGE but because it's so unstable and needs to baby monitor it otherwise the server won't stay online the guy from WAGE don't really wanna run it anymore, neither can i have remote access to control it myself.

Now i bought a VPS from Web Africa which cost me about R500 p/m which i have now cancelled, the server is still running from it but it eats bandwitdh used 10GB in 3 days and the package i have only have 50GB per month and there after R5 per gig, and it won't last a full month.

Now here is the choices i have:

1.) Get supported by donations for paying the bandwith/server hosting, or even if someone sponser me some hosting where i could have RDP access, or even a host which provide some decent bandwitdh per month i can use.
2.) Upgrade my ADSL to a 4MB uncapped and run it from that.. but can't guarentee how the lag will be like.

If you guys have any suggestions let me know please, because i think this game has great potential for when it release and for a South African server and community.

You can reply here or visit the Cube World forum and post a reply please, need some advice

Currently the server is capped on 20 players, and it reached that amount each evening.

Hey all,

Below is the latest patch for the client and the server which has been released and the server is currently running on it

Patch Notes: 23 July 2013

- Added an option to limit the frame rate (see options menu: FPS limit; default 111 fps)
- Ranger ability 'Scout's switftness' doesn't crash on multiplayer servers anymore
- Ranger ability 'Retreat' doesn't increase hang gliding speed anymore
- The crossbow's right mouse button ability now only does damage when charged
- You can now reset the day in inns only between 6:00 P.M. and 6:00 A.M.
- Fixed a bug where multiplayer groups received too much XP for missions"
TL;DR - Rangers no longer reign supreme in the air or the ground, inns work like they should and CW now comes with at least 83% less power-levelling and computer-melting frame rates!

Hey all,

I am now running a diffrent server which is based on python someone is working on which is mutch more stable and nice features to it

Currently the server is a PVP server without any NPC's yet so you can login and have some PVP action.

Some commands:

/who - Shows who is online.
/whowhere - Shows who is where.

More Information about the server software:

It's a standalone, open server in Python. It currently has the best protocol coverage of all the server projects out there, and has features like
Cross-platform support (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD, what have you)
File/console logging
MOTD message
Scripting (see the minimal welcome.py example)
Advanced configuration
Ban system
Commands (/kick, /say, /whereis, /setclock, /kill, /stun, etc.)
