How to connect

[Floater]

Does anyone knows how to connect to dynaverse server ?

Is it the list of dynavers servers:  http://monitor.dynaverse.net/ ?


It is really simple question for which I cannot find the answer:   I have a game (sfcIII) and I want to connect to dynaverse server. What should I do ?


...Yes, I had installed the most recent version of the patch I've found, but what next ?  When I'm starting the Multiplayer Campaign, game tries to join  access1.sfc.activision.com.  And this server is dead for years.

Are there some caint of configuration file or something to change this setting ?

(Sorry for my english)

Maybe it is something I must type into sfc.ini file ?
But what is it ?

I'm still searching, I'll be very happy if someone just tell me...

I've added IP=my.external.ip
I try to do something with ServerSetup file...
as it was mentioned here http://www.dynaverse.net/forum/index.php/topic,163351235.msg1122508277.html#msg1122508277

Does anyone know the proper address of access server and port to place there ?

Hi,
       According to GFL Geeman the Activision server is down and all they can do is keep e-mailing Activision. According to him the server usually stay down for several days.

If not, notify me when this server will be again operational...

Hello !!!!!!

Anybody reads this posts at all, or "the Republic no longer functions" ?

I have to spam this forum or something to draw attention ?

[S31-Riptide]

Server has been up for a couple days now... give it a shot.

[Floater]

What does "give it a shot" mean ?

Does anyone plays Sfc3 online campaign or not ?  And where  (if yes) ?   

Are they any others access servers, or it is the only one ?

[Floater]

A week has past and that server is still off-line.

And it looks like there is noone here.

f*ck it !!!

floater. I think I can help. does it give you still trying to connect to access servers or does it time out in the directplay test host.
these ports have to be open.
2302 to 2302 udp and tcp
2303 to 2303 udp and tcp
6073 to 6073 udp and tcp
if they are not it wont connect to servers.
also antivirus software and windows firewall will kkeep it from connecting. there are numerous posts at www.gfluniverse.net in the law forums. If you need more assistance let me know

[Floater]

The 1st problem is, that access1.sfc3.activision.com is not responding for 'ping'...

Because of this simple fact, I suppose the server is dead.

And whatever you do to your firewall and other possible protection systems, it will not change the fact that this server will not respond.

Because it is dead.


If there are some other servers than access1.sfc3.activision.com, please inform me.
If you somehow manage to connect with access1.sfc3.activision.com, please inform me too.

Hey floater,FYI SFC3 is dead, its the main reason why there is only maybe 2 D3 servers up, and when activision pulls the plug thats all she wrote.D2 on the other hand is run by the admins of this forum and will stay online as long as there are players playing,i recommend you getting SFC2 EAW or SFC2 OP (OP especially) they are more satisfying and have a better taste.

We dont need access servers to connect toa server, theres a way to direct connect if you know its ip...FYI

[GFL Offkey]

SFC3 is not dead and we do connect to the access servers via the game. We even ran a server for 1 year and 1 week without resets drops or serious crashes. As matter of fact our member list for our dyna was 250 players.
Our mod is also the most stable and successful mod and most balanced. If you are having issues with the access servers contact me via www.gfluniverse.net
I guarantee that this game with our mod is not dead and by far better than legacy will ever be. So to those who dont know what thier talking about come visit our dyna. Also I guarantee we are about 3 levels above the standard player and our ai are more human reacting than most human players.
