Zmud32 is not working

Leohand · Post by **Leohand** » Wed Sep 27, 2006 5:29 pm

I was using a trial version of a newer mud, and that subscription just ran out, so I downloaded the older one, and can't connect to FK. I entered all the information, but it just won't work. I am not the most tech savvie person there is, I know enough that the information should all be right, but I'm unable to connect.

There doesn't seem to be any announcement about the game being down, which leads me to suspect something else is wrong. Any advice?

I was having trouble connecting off telnet, so the game could be down but none of the IMM's or players allowed to post on that forum could have logged yet, give it till tonight and wait and see if anyone has posted about it, I'll check when I get home with my Zmud, but I'm on the campus right now, so anyways... I'll check back when I get here, and if it's a tech prob with Zmud I'll try and help ya figure it out!

I was just chatting with Gwain, he said that FK was working just fine, and that my info seemed alright, so I am quite baffled.

The mud is currently up and running for me. Are you sure you got the correct IP, or used the name "game.forgottenkingdoms.com"?

Title : Forgotten Kingdoms

Port : 4000
Address : 209.126.145.101

Gwain said it seemed alright.

That looks like an old IP address. Try just removing it (it should look it up automatically).

I see. Well, I'll try that again then, but that was the address the program found, hehe. Can I get the actual address then?

Okay, I got it working now. I deleted it twice and redid it each, but it finally gave me the right address.

Zmud32 isn't working now, it wont connect. I've been evaluating it for 31 days though, but according to the site it's supposed to still work after the 30 day elaluation period. I don't know what to do.

It's because there's a really BIG party going on and you're not invited

No, joke, I can't connect, too, server might be down or something

Server's not down though, I IMed someone on AIM whos on the game right now. That was my first thought too.

[11:03] RdmrChrist3: Is FK working for you?
[11:03] JaysonLovesYa: Yes.
[11:03] RdmrChrist3: Darn, not for me

Well, someone just posted in game status that the server is down, so I guess maybe that person didn't know what they were talking about. Or otherwise was online before it quit working and logged off. Speaking or which, does anyone have any idea when it quit working? Approximately, I mean. Because it's been about three hours I think for me since it was working.

Calm down, grasshopper. :)

Dalvyn posts it's down and he doesn't know why. This means it needs a game owner to come along. Sooo, it's going to likely be down for a little bit more. It's not uncommon to lose the game for a day or two, the owners have real lives where things happen that require them to knock it off, or even accidentally knock it off. :)

You will get your pixie sticks eventually.

Hehe, I am just worried about the timing is all. When I logged on origonally, it said I'd been doing the trial for 30 days, I played for a half hour and got booted, and closed the game and reopened it and it said I've been evaluating it for 31 days. And since it technically said it was a 30 day trial, of course it got me scared a bit. I need my Forgotten Kingdoms.

calm down leo... it's all good... we'll get our fair share of FK soon enough

i just pray to the FK gods that it is up before tomorrow seeing as if we miss a week of a certan RP.... it's going to be quite a long time before we can get together again...

so please FK Gods... let it be up

Be up, be up, be up! I am so in agreement with you there. FK is a drug and I'm addicted. Instead of shooting up, I'm booting up. Reconnecting. Attempting connection to 67.177.78.20
