Sorry guys, it will take some time. Much of the code is not yet compatible to Linux, as it is written for Windows. Much stuff has to be re-implemented and tested, the hole code must be ported to Linux. This is nothing that can be done rapidly. I'll do my best, but as I am alone on that (and I am quite busy with other stuff), I cannot say how long that takes. Sorry.

Np Jodocus. There isn't any rush but I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say we appreciate your time and effort into restoring Neo.

Thankfully, I used many plattform-independent C++ libraries (Boost, Crypto++ and MySQL++ rules!), this makes porting sort of easy. I guess I have to only rewrite ~20% of the code. More than 3/4 of the files actually compiled on my Linux machine already. Let's hope that they will also do what they are supposed to do...

Sorry again, I am actually quite suprised by this incident as well. I have no more access to the server machine at all.

Maybe RealForce can organize a makeshift solution on a Windows machine. As the server apparently got lost, all data is wiped, rendering stuff like your friendlists invalid, as well as all of your accounts. :(

Unfortunately, I dont think that RealForce or drex are able to help me on porting the code, apart from testing.

Also, there is no reaction from Ghost. I don't know what happened at all.

well if there is anything any of can do to help in anyway we would be happy too. A couple of us are willing to put out some money for a new server if need be. Although to be honest I don't know how that works.

I appreciate that, but for now I have my own Linux VServer that should be able to do it, once I can run the server on Linux.

There is a way to use direct connect still if anyone is interested, we tested a 4 player island game with it and it works, the load to start the game is longer than normal though but other than that it works great!
