Re: Shard is down
So, I got some good and really bad news....
Good news is that I have some updates that I received from Oden to patch somethings and add some goodies.
Bad news is that while I was trying to apply those changes I ended up deleting all the shard's data and it's backups from the last 3 years...
Using some tools to recover the data, so far, the best I have is a backup from 12/10/2017. But I'll keep on digging.
I'll keep you updated.

Re: Shard is down
I believe it means October.
Could be wrong, but assume the worst hope for the best so it's not as big a blow if your assumed worst occurs.

Re: Shard is down
any idea what the damage is or when the server will be back up? had just logged the other day to pay house taxes and to see if religion was up. figure the christmas stuff should be dropping on the chars soon as well?
Re: Shard is down
Not sure last I talked to blckfire is he was running a recovery program to try to get what was lost back.
Christmas stuff should be dropping shortly when the shard comes back up and should assuming my holidays pkg works as it did in testing, should start on the 16th or 17th.
This will hopefully be the normal start date for Christmas in the future. There's some manual work I need to do once the shard comes up but in the future I want to get decor and other holiday triggered events to be automated.

Re: Shard is down
Well.. More time passes less chance to get anything good out of recovery... unless he's just trying out the recovered save files that if they work or not.
Otherwise it's just lost cause, you can't get more out of it by trying it over and over again
more files are going to get overwritten by every second passed.
Just kinda wanna login and see the damage and then consider if it's worth it or not

Re: Shard is down
Lucky for us the server runs on a data drive. So, almost nothing is written or re-writen in there.
Btw, I'm running a deep scan. So, this will probably take the whole night (GMT+1).
Worst case scenario we'll be back to early October.
