The other night I sent this to : support@quanticlab.com

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To whom it make concern.

the server nw2.novaworld.net at IP of 207.178.209.202 seems to be still running but is failing to function as it used to by providing multiplayer lobbies of some of the NovaLogic franchises which are still sold on steam.

The server looks to be partially functioning in the respects that is can be pinged and shows a http is accepting connection and then that connection is forced shut/reset.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
by the morning the gateway server was up and running and by the next day the lobbies are up.

I just log into Novalogic via Delta Force Xtreme and then went to the server listings and everything is running normal.


Green dots show up right away. Music didn't break. Mouse moved fine.

Joined a server, no Sysdump. Exit the game back to desktop, no Sysdump.

Looks like you lit a fire under their asses devilsclaw and they fixed it.

Hopefully that is what it is.

So I accidentally crashed the nw10.novaworld.net lobbies. I have reported it to that correct people.

I now know the crashing is related to people causing it though. So JO/BHD and what not are most likely broken.

There is still the older games. Sorry, I was working with something that I am not going to detail since some people might want to do it on purpose. But that crash is easy and most likely has happened many times by people by accident.

I don't know anything about crashing the site. I only know I can't get in.

We want to know if they plan to get rid of it or are they working on it and will keep it running.

But 5 emails to them since last Saturday and gotten no response.

Other folks have also emailed them and send them messages via their official website and still no response.

Strange thing is I still have a copy of Delta Force Xtreme on my computer I use for Stock Maps and Stock Maps servers.

Just a clean install from the disk and then the official update 1.6.9.

I just went to it and click on Update and it connected to Novalogic server and was trying to download a new update several MB in size.

I killed it before it did. Don't want to mess up my copy.

So something at Novaworld is still running and responding and connecting!!

I emailed a couple of friends who also play regularly every day on there and haven't got an email response back.

I think it's everybody not being able to connect.

I had nothing to do with the update servers. Those are just standard old ftp servers and a lot of them no longer exist.

They still have one up and running so you would have to correct your update file to point to the correct location.

There website should also have a all in one update file for your game.

If not I have a backup of there ftp servers before they went down.

Just a side note: I don't understand this obsession on getting a email response. They are a large company with many divisions the support email they get is sent to who ever might be responsible to fix the problem. The person who fixes the problem would not expose him/her self to anyone out side of the company or they would be constantly hounded by people. Also It would be a lot of a hassle to reply to everyone who is mailing in on a problem that could be just seen as fixed when everything is working.

Now not only is it down again, Novaworld Forum and Novalogic website are also down!!

http://www.novaworld2.com/index.php?...d_13300/page_5

http://www.novalogic.com/

But when I started the Delta Force Extreme unmodded version, the direct from factory CD install, version 1.6.9, and did an update, it still connected to a Novalogic update server and downloaded a file, decompressed it and then said no update needed.

Played til about 11:00 pm last night and went to sleep.

Then this morning about 2:30 tried to get back on and it was down including this entire Novaworld forum and Novalogic website.

Now both sites and the game servers are up again.

Up and down, up and down. Wish they would make up their mind and at least post an update here on Novaworld forum or on Novalogic old main page on what is going on!!
