Redcrab's staging server ( 0.4.dev-20120320 pull 20/03/2012)

[redcrab]

Hi,
This is to introduce the staging server.
The aim is to Test latest Celeron git master,
with mostly the same mods as original Redcrab's server
with a "world" copy(cloned) of original Redcrab's server dated of 06/03/2012
Any player can access the staging server with same credentials known by original Redcrab's server at the cloning date

IMPORTANT:
Compatibility break : you need latest client to access it. clients prior git 20/03/2012 are not supported
Build safety : Buildings are not safe on this server, There is no replication to original Redcrab's server, any build can be removed/destroyed/reset/lost.

[Jordach]

thanks.

[redcrab]

To be able to connect correctly the staging server , you need to apply manually a fix (until an official fix is release on the mainstream)
see at http://c55.me/minetest/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=7211#p7211

[redcrab]

The special fix allows the server and the client to have much much more active mods active,
about a possible estimate of 60 mods with node definition. mesecons+ seasons+ moreores+dynamite+nparticle and lot more possible heavy mods.

From time to time I will add mods as soon as they reach a minimum of maturity.

[redcrab]

2 mods re-added
moreores
nparticule

[redcrab]

re-added mods
- dynamite
-seasons

and a full update with latest RTMMP :) (without "default" mods)
see first post to see complete mods list .. about 40 mods

all the best mods together ... all the RTMMP + mesecons (jeija) ... first time ever available together !

do not forget you need special fix to make your client functioning with this staging server.

[redcrab]

Temp fix to be able to use the staging server.
After patch the client still functional with other existing world version 0.4 20120106-1 and later

what if we are on windows?

[redcrab]

My patch was not nice, I modified the forum post accordingly (2 post above , please ignore old version of the post... sorry)

@Jordach: I should guess Operating System is not an issue ... all depends if you are able to compile the source comming from git , recent commit ...

[Jordach]

I know but the fact is, this should go mainstream.

rather than recompiling everytime.

[redcrab]

doors mod is available.

[redcrab]

updated server to 0.4 20120123

but don't works at all ... Staging is down

current mods not compatible with new server version ...
Hope that RTMMP + mesecons + worldedit will be compatible soon
until then , server is out of order ... Sorry

[redcrab]

Server is back !

I've made several fixes on these 40 mods .. "Quick and dirty ... not sure that all working as expected ...
You may test it ....

Last client version needed from mainstream : v0.4 20120122

[jordan4ibanez]

[rinoux]

[redcrab]

Nice ! that work for me... (at least the server)

yeap the server is running .. now the issue is : try/fix/wait4modders to have mature upgraded mods to be able to start the offcial server migration.

But I'm happy that all mods are loaded .. (break previous limitation)
