Now also available on IPv6

IPv6 has been live on my connection for a while, but now I’ve made the website and several important functions, such as XMPP, Mumble and Doomsday also available on IPv6!


Server upgrade

It’s that time a year ;-)

To be frank, performance wise only the CPU has changed.
In Q1 2017 I’m expecting a bigger upgrade, so stay posted!


Some minor updates

Reborn is now hosted on a connection that ain’t quite as fast as the previous connection – though by no means slow either, but has a steady IP, so no more unexpected IP changes!
A speed upgrade in combination with static IPs is scheduled, but won’t be there for another year.

On the Doomsday side of things I’ve decided to take the Hexen and Final DOOM servers offline, they are having issues that were hogging the servers CPU.
DOOM 1 & 2 are still publicly available.

The Diablo II ladder XP is now fixed, I’ve edited the SQL table layout so it can contain a float of up to 10 instead of 8, this will ensure the XP of characters up to level 99 will be shown correctly.


XMPP server live and public

If you’re feeling chatty, or would like a safe and private alternative to popular chat servers, feel free to make an account on my XMPP server.

Server name is vandalfsen.me, you can make an account from within your client, like Pidgin or Miranda.

To contact me, add epain@vandalfsen.me to your buddylist :-)


Migration to new connection complete

The new connection is live, we’re now hosted at 180/18Mbit, enjoy!
