[D2] Because Diablo just doesn't seem to want to die
Dormio Ergo Sum:
Thank God I made a javazon instead of listening to Keine/Infinity and making a trapsin then. :V
Voted yes because why not?
Helepolis:
I would be more happy if we could actually emulate Closed Realm so we can can ban the retarted item hacking and improve game hosting speed. . .
ApharmdB:
That'd require D2GS. Unlike WC3 hostbots, this one needs to be installed on the henrietta server itself - http://pvpgn.wikia.com/wiki/D2GS_Server, or this http://developer.berlios.de/docman/display_doc.php?docid=694&group_id=2291#unix
Helepolis:
It has to be Linux only TSO said. I am a total idiot when it comes to installing stuff on servers orz.
Seeing it has unix behind the link, its I guess compatible?
ApharmdB:
Hmm. D2GS is the program described in the first link that enables closed realm support. It is the Game Server. It depends on D2CS/D2DBS which are in the second link (Character Server and Database Servers respectively). All 3 need to be running for a fully functional realm. Unfortunately while D2CS and D2DBS are easy to set up on a linux box, and in all likelihood already is set up on henrietta, D2GS is a Windows-only program. However, I've set it up to run under Wine in Debian before for LoD 1.09, so it's still possible. That was a long time ago though, so I can't say for certain that current versions of Wine will run D2GS as flawlessly as before.
