SFC Launcher (a dynaverse and gamespy's online services replacement)
Javora:
Wow Carlos, that's amazing. Can't wait to see this.

Thanks.
Today i added support for SFC2 EAW.
And with the motd system in mind, i created and added a little webserver to the launcher, so it will always give the lastest motds to the clients. It will be optional, as it will listen for motd requests on port 80.
I did a lot of testing. It looks stable.
Just need to add a better interface, and some code to handle more than 1 version of the servers, as we have now support for sfcop sfceaw.
Cheers.

Gamespy being taken over buy money grabbing individuals who have no idea who their fathers were also screwed up the Sword of the Stars space wargame community.
The Sword of the Stars developers actually broadcast on the game's online bulletin start up board the true story of how everybody using Gamespy was screwed over.
Apparently the new owners of Gamespy immediately tore up and reneged on all client existing contracts and deals, hiked up their fee by just over 400% for server usage and...... well all the various game developers said, "Screw you!!", and stopped using Gamespy...... which killed it completely.
So the new owners of Gamespy through sheer greed killed "The Goose that was laying them golden eggs".
Like all businesses, blatantly attempting to openly screw one's customer base leads to a boycott of said business.

Is there any way to change the code so that SFC II, SFC CE, and SFC OP (minis X-Ships) can see each other on the same Dyna? This might be the best way to get as many people as we can to play multiplayer again.
