Hi guys!! Long time no see ;)

I just reinstalled GCCG on my computer using the windows installer downloaded from http://gccg.sourceforge.net/ but failed to connect.
GCCG opens but I get the following lines:
Connecting to gccg.buonanno.org port 29130
Connection failed
Working offline

How can i fix this?

Hey Bruce,

the server is down last 2 days, I already send and email to Josh about it, we were experiancing issues after our server got hacked, still not back to normal, but gccg did work for some weeks

I keep you posted

yours Nicolai

GCCG should now be back online, I just received an email from the administrator this morning. He said the host did a server reboot over the weekend and it didn't restart correctly.

If there are any additional problems, please post them.

The SVN issues are still on the To Do list to be fixed I believe.

the server address is this:

server 199.91.172.122

open the metw.bat file with an editor and enter in manually

it should look like this:

@echo off
set HOME=C:
set USER=Windows
set CLIENT=.\ccg_client.exe
if exist .\home set HOME=.\home
if exist module_windows32\ccg_client.exe set CLIENT=module_windows32\ccg_client.exe
start %CLIENT% --server 199.91.172.122 --design 1920x1010 --user %USER% %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 metwDC.xml
