HotFix : Risen – ModStarter 1.3.2.2

[Bild: 439.png]

Because old MDS web-site is down now, it was not possible to use Internet Mods DB. I am replaced web-site to the other domain and now it must works ok. But because domain name was changed, MDS auto-update function in all old Mod-Starter versions will not work . All who already have an installed MDS - please, download new installation file (RMDS_OnlineDB_1_3_2_2.exe) and install program into same directory, in that case MDS will be updated with saving all your mods and e.t.c.

Changelog :

• Old ModStarter web-site replaced to the other domain - http://mdscp.5gigs.net/ . Also all users who recently was not able to connect to the old web-site (Internet Mods DB) now must be unlocked (I hope that new domain which located somewhere in USA, is not forbidden in your country ).

Note : For users who still not have MDS, it is possible to download latest installation file from – http://www.worldofrisen.de/english/download_70.htm .

Do I have to uninstall the old version first, or can I just overwrite everything with the installer, without having to worry about anything?

Just install new version into the same MDS folder (overwrite it). Also it is not necessary to uninstall mods before that.

[Phael]

Very good. Thank you!

EDIT: Good job, worked like a charm.

[Colmar]

oh now I see why it doesn't work, thanks for the update LordOfWAR

Hello . Did you have an access to the new mds web-site - mdscp.5gigs.net ?

If you can't view it via your browser, then probably your provider denied 5gigs domain... .

Yeah, I tried to access the site in my browser, but no dice. I can do it only using a proxy. Noob question, but... I'm in brazil, does that change anything?

Hm, currently you can try to use other dns server, like this one - opendns :

208.67.222.222

You can set it in your ip settings, as primary, or secondary dns server (if you tried to access to the site and your browser said that it can't find domain, then you can try to set it as alternative dns...).

I think that it must unblock your access to the mds site...

Write here pls if it works...

[churibman]

I'm using this OpenDNS thing, but it still says i'm offline. When I try to acces the site in my browser, it says "Limit time reached - The server mdscp.5gigs.net took too long to respond" I'd post a screenshot, but it's all in portuguese so....

Thanks for the help though, never been in a community that the veterans actually helped the new guys

Anyways, is there some other way to download the mods besides the MDS? I downloaded an older version of it that came with some mods from strategyinformer and updated to 1.3.2.2 so now I have a few ones, but that's it.

[Larisa]

On this new site the Mod Upload page link still points to the old address.

Size of my "FanMods" folder is bigger than 1 Gb ... If you want, I can upload it to somewhere, but I hope to find an solution with MDS for you in next few days...

Update : Risen – ModStarter 1.3.2.3

[Bild: 439.png]

Changelog :

• Added few web-site mirrors. If your ISP recently blocked MDS web-site and that's why you was not able to connect to the Online DB - now MDS will check also other 2 mirrors.
• Added DataBase mirror. If your ISP recently blocked DB hosting and that's why you was not able to connect to the Online DB - now MDS will check access to the other (mirror) DB.
• Now you will be able to run only one window (copy) of MDS or it's updater (if you will try to launch MDS again - new window will be closed (but old will be focused)).
• Now MDS will check write access to the it's and Risen directory. If there will be no access - it will be automatically terminated with error message.
• Added - "Main Menu->Help" sub-menu item. Now, if you will have some questions - you can go to this thread by clicking on - "Write your question on the forum" item. If you want to report about some bug - there is other item - "Generate detailed report". After clicking on this item, it will generate txt file in MDS folder with all MDS and Risen files infos... I think that it will help to me to solve most of the reported problems more quickly.
• Online DB window now have one menu item - "Downloads Statistic".

As always, thanks to all translators - foobar,Jodob,Xardasrule,Macrentofeth,El Kamil,Ancalagon el negro for your perfect work .

Note : You can update your MDS version to the newest version automatically. Just launch MDS and it will ask for update. For users who still not have MDS, it is possible to download latest installation file from – http://www.worldofrisen.de/english/download_70.htm.

Here is few file hostings, which provide direct links for your files (so they can be used for adding your mods into Mod-Starter OnlineDB):

• If "full" mod file is not bigger than 10 Mb: http://upload.worldofplayers.de/ - Our wop file uploader. Can be used by wop users (only registered users can see the password). It is most stable place for mod files. Note: After uploading files to wop, you must post your links somewhere in this or other thread on the wop forum (to prevent file deletion after some time)...
  
  
• If "full" mod file is bigger than 10 Mb:
  
  
  
  • http://www.dropbox.com/ - Free plan will give to you 2 GB space on hosting. You must create account for using it. It is possible to upload files with size not bigger than 300 Mb via web-browser. But there is no limit if you will upload files into public folder via dropbox desktop application. Note: For generating public link, you must upload files into public folder!
    
    
  • http://www.fileden.com/ - Free plan will give to you 1 GB space on hosting. You must create account for using it. Limits - 5 Gb bandwidth per month.

Thanks for checking. I am cleared DNS cache and you are right - web-site is down [Bild: bu.gif]... Specially for situations like this, RMDS have few web-site and DB mirrors, which program must check and switch for another mirror automatically... my mistake lies in checking for "answer" from host, not checking info itself (web-site still online, but content is other)... because of this, RMDS not switched automatically to another mirror, sorry... [Bild: ac.gif]

I will wait for one day, if they will not fix hosting, then I will publish hotfix...

If you don't want to wait, you can switch RMDS to another mirror manually:

1. Open "mds.ini" in RMDS folder (via notepad).
2. You will see first line - "[Main]". You must add new line after this ("[Main]") first string:
   
   

   BlogURL=mdscp.t15.org

   So in result you will have something like this:
   
   

   [Main]
   BlogURL=mdscp.t15.org
   ...

3. Save ini file.
4. Launch RMDS. Now it will works as recently.

Update:

Site is online, that's why there is no hotfix. All should work .
