Re: Add on Help!
I moved this to technical support because it doesn't have anything to do with the website. The address of the add-ons server is
addons.wesnoth.org
addons.wesnoth.org
Re: Add on Help!
And the alternate MP servers are:Gambit wrote:The address of the add-ons server is
addons.wesnoth.org
server2.wesnoth.org (gonzo.dicp.de)
server3.wesnoth.org (basilic.tuxfamily.net)
Port 15000 for 1.8.x.
If you meant alternate servers for add-ons, see:
http://forum.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?p=451300#p451300
(Strangely enough, searching this forum for "add-ons" returns zero hits.)

Re: Add on Help!
Those aren't (strictly speaking) alternate servers. In fact, just wesnoth.org will work in practice. However...norbert wrote:If you meant alternate servers for add-ons, see:

That sounds like you may be having problems with a firewall obstructing wesnoth's outgoing access to the add-on server's ports. What system are you using? You may need to add an exception for Wesnoth to allow it to create outgoing connections to the ports listed in the post that norbert linked.masterofmind wrote:Ok i got it but now me and my friend both get Remote Host disconected... what's with that?

At the time I too had problems connecting to the add-ons server, so it was most likely a temporary problem with the server itself. Things went back to normal some time later.That sounds like you may be having problems with a firewall obstructing wesnoth's outgoing access to the add-on server's ports. What system are you using?

Then it's not a firewall issue.masterofmind wrote:ok now when a download almost done "remote host dissconected"
I forgot to mention that this is extremely frequent, for some reason, and it can be down for any length of time until someone gets to reboot the machine. We're still investigating the cause for our server to go down at unexpected times without our involvement — and do not worry, external factors are already ruled out.shadowblack wrote:At the time I too had problems connecting to the add-ons server, so it was most likely a temporary problem with the server itself.

Re: Add on Help!
so may be like next month,week or day it will be better?
Re: Add on Help!
I didn't mean that it isn't working right now. If you can access the forums, then the add-ons server is also working and online.
