I got stuck again, crossing into Herb Garden map from the skeleton 'Great Villain Zone' map.

I tried to enter Herb Garden by the top crossing (there is second road in a bit South).

Before this I tried to enter this map from South, from Bichon Province but ended up on black map as you see here but luckily, when I re-logged, I found myself back in Bichon (also while the map was black, I didn't lose my items, still I couldn't use them, like home teleport scroll.

BTW this Herb Garden map has wrong 'big map' (showing Bichon Province)

When you have time, rescue me again, thanks

I think I made this screen of the Herb Garden map when I teleported in via one of those 'quick travel' points but that is like a week or two back, not sure if you did something since then and map is not there or the crossing coords are messed up.
BTW this is from the map project I talked about in game, it is the reason why I try to travel to all maps.

The Great Villain Zone needs the name that is visible in game changed. It says Great Villain Exist(ence?) instead of Zone

I’ll fix this when I get home later.

This still up?

Was gonna ask the same. Don't even know if my char got rescued.

I see now Jev posted he stopped hosting it, I'd put it on the computer I used to host mir3d from but in that location we have changed ISP and they don't provide for port forwarding in their router, so that is the end of it, for now anyway.

Elsewhere, on mir4 thread, Jev posted about the ungrateful bozos who took these Carbon Mir1 files as released here and continued to develop them further for themselves, that is kind of discouraging.
Like the other day someone posted screenshot of the Crystal map editor translated (back :D) into Chinese with some additions to it but I don't know of any acknowledgment which is kinda disappointing.

I view that editor as 'my editor' since I developed it from its poor shape as we originally got it (back in 2016 I think) into a very usable editor which it is today, with some help from Akaras only (where is he gone...). At least the Chinese could have posted if we would be interested in some improvements he made to it, but that is too much to ask I suppose. But often pple do that sort of innocently, like an elephant in a porcelain shop when he destroys all and doesn't think anything of it LOL

Good idea, thx

Can Jev give you the server user database he used when hosting the server, I don't know how many pple did already make acct or what progress when he was hosting it but like in my case, I have I think lev20 char (albeit stuck on border crossing) and its not like I'd want to redo the levels again.
Maybe Jev could reset my acct and then pass the user database for your hosting.

I think only the server database is needed, if a new acct is made with the same name, it should connect to the existing acct in the server database, right?

sounds like mines broken to be honest lol 2 rabbits killed and I was level 13
Happy to swap the DB out, just kinda running it "as is" so it can be seen

Yeah, you need the database he used since he made at least some essential tweaks to make it a bit reasonable, like disabled skeletons that gave 7k exp on easy kill, was more effort to travel to that skeleton map than leveling there like a rocket taking off LOL

I believe he put some items in shops but you couldn't sell anything back, except I think meat and all weapons, those two item types you could sell to get some gold.
I'd only advise against visiting that top left map, the Herb Garden one. It is very likely you can get stuck as I did twice already.

Also you will need to make yours GM char if you gonna host the server, there is a GM map on the server.

fair enough, it what it is.
Im not going to bother making a GM, im just leaving it up so people can see current progress of source/database at the moment.

I think the database I released is alittle further back then the one I have running on my own machine. I’ll update this within the hour and ping @meacher the account database (passwords are hashed and emails are not used for registration)

I’ll come back to working on Mir 1 once I release Mir 4 and have had a good mess around with that.

This isn’t the end.

I remember now that the tweaked map editor supplied with mir1 files doesn't save map edits. I wonder if that could be fixed since I got some non-mir1 assets from older games of that era that might look nice on mir1 maps.

Come to think of it, would Crystal map editor work with mir1 maps? Maybe the change made to it wasn't to make it compatible with mir1 maps but rather to enhance it in someway? I don't recall what the problem was in my first and only test of map editing and can't test it right now since I am on a different PC (moved to EU for the summer).

LCD had taken the Crystal Map editor and stripped back the mir 2/3 stuff. I know that the code was changed alot to get those maps even displaying. I remember hearing that the maps don't save a while back but it's above my skill set.

All sorted,
Jev has provided me with the PTS DB and this is now running at:
