They can't do that for DF2, since the game wasn't designed for it, and no patch has been made to add support for such a requirement...

Attached to this post is the one strait from my game.
All that extra stuff is just that... extras.
It shows additional information about the servers.
Well done Knuckles
Your new HTM works for me! i did excatly as you said and it works!!
It would seam that if you use an un-orignal HTM (generated by the player manager for example) then your game will not get past the lobby page, untill you use Knuckles work around.
Thanks again Knuckles you are the man!!
Re: Is Nova World today closed for works?
Thx So Dam,
The one posted is one from Player-Manager.
All the other ones will work too but....
you need to make a change in the 2 URL address's
where it reads
gamelist=nw3.novaworld
url=nw3.novaworld
You will need to change that number 3 to the number 4.
That should work on any other bypass's that are out there.
Re: Is Nova World today closed for works?
After all the back and forth, we are all (mostly all) back in the game. Thanks to all who worked to get us back on line!!! No thanks to Nova.
As far as the registration question goes. I saw a post in the NovaWorld forums about that, while I was trying to find a reason why we could not get in. There was/is a statement that referenced sign in and registration for newer games, but it stated that older Nova games were not required to sign in or register players. It's in there, but you'll have to go in and look it up.
Thanks again to all (especially you KNuckles :joystick.gif:), for all the help
Re: Is Nova World today closed for works?
Is there problems with the startup.htm again? I've had it working perfectly the last few days but this afternoon, I can't get into anything again. It won't even go to the login page... Any help?
Re: Is Nova World today closed for works?
I can't get in either... something has changed. What ever it is, is causing the game to keep running after shut down and putting a big load on my Vid card?
Re: Is Nova World today closed for works?
Looks like Novaworld is down.
Anyone able to open the homepage of www.novaworld.com ?

Re: Is Nova World today closed for works?
I think they are back down again.
Re: Is Nova World today closed for works?
Hello Gentlemen, :waving.gif: I connected to NovaWorld today, I was updating some maps, the Server seemed to be fine. I went for a Constitutional with my Pooch at about 17.00Hrs-GMT, and left my (=FUN=24/7) Server running it seemed to still be running on my return at 20.00Hrs-GMT. I booted my Player computer and got no response from Nova's Server, so (me being stupid) thought it was my problem and rebooted everything, I ended up resetting my Router back to Factory Settings (D'oh) and still no response from Nova.
I am hoping everything will be back to normal soon (Gasp! Gasp!).
Ghost=FUN= has a Modified 'Startup-HTM' which he distributed amongst some of us, I have deleted my Original Startup, and the Startup supplied to us on CPD, so I am hoping I haven't buggered things up.
There are no notices on the =FUN= forums, so I am not sure if the =FUN= Squad know about this.
I will keep checking........

Re: Is Nova World today closed for works?
Try going to Novalogics website at www.novaworld.com . If that page does NOT load for you and you cant login manualy, then chances are they are down for whatever reason. Give them time to get it all sorted out, Im sure they will have it back up soon. :alcoholic.gif:
