I think that the event is over. If not I would love to have an account too.

The event never really started. I'm still trying to figure out why it won't run properly outside of localhost.

I'm DarkOrbit moderators reading this too,so think about how you will keep server online ,because this DO Moderators will report you to BigPoint.

So stay on the safesite-use some safe vicsocks/vpn.

And I hope u can do that all without problems.

Did you ever read this thread?
It won't make any effect because there will not be an open registration, so not everyone can join... That is actually the right thing for a term called Private server!

Next, Whoaaahaaa jD, you almost did it! It's so nice to wake up and see this thread with all your posts! I hope you can fix everything and I hope the test period isn't over yet? I think it even hasn't been started yet?
I would love it soooo much to be a tester

This is just amazing, I thought it would take a lot of time for like a few months before first tests but dude, A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!

Hope I can help you by testing it!

See ya

Bigpoint will not report the server,if jD don't make uridium with money or premium with money,jD said Premium will be with uridium.

I'm getting a bit bored of reading posts saying that private servers, which use the original DarkOrbit client are perfectly legal as long as no one charges for items etc.

This is false information.

If the client at any point is hosted on a publicly accessible server* other than one which is owned or endorsed by BigPoint then you are immediately in breach of BigPoint's copyright. In fact, it'd be several cases of copyright infringement because it would be one for the images, one for the code, the sounds and so on.

*Note that a publicly accessible server is anything on the world wide web. It doesn't matter if it's only for "trusted members", it'd still be publicly accessible with the right abilities as the server would have to be connected to the internet (which we all have access to).

On top of that, the same copyrighted material would have been used to boost the administrators publicity, traffic to websites etc. Which I believe is also against a trading law somewhere.

The amount of money that it would cost to keep a full private server online is through the roof. This means that unless the administrator has a bottomless pit of money, they would HAVE to bring in some sort of income from the service. Even if this was in the form of donations, advertisements etc. this would all be "damages" that BigPoint could easily claim back. Let alone the "damages" that would be claimed for the loss of revenue.

So no, it is not legal no matter what way you look at it.

This is where anyone who is creating a private server always gets stuck. The only real way forward to a private server is actually to create an entirely new game (both client and server) based upon the same ideas that DarkOrbit uses.

TO -JD-: I'm not trying to ruin your party or anything, I'm in exactly the same position as yourself. A solution really needs to be found.

Actually, your wrong. Copyrighted content that is digital expires after a year of not being used. This means that as long as I stay under the 5% of "copyrighted digital content" that is allowed as a "sample" then I am not committing a crime. Also, copyright in most cases applies to the distribution of content FOR MONEY.

The code is actually way way different, and the fact they use an obfuscator for their public facing code means that it is even more different. If you run a Diff on decompiled code, it says they are 1% simillar. Thats code copyright out of the picture

Sounds, well, sure there are some similar sounds, but hey! DarkOrbit changed all them too! Lasers, Aliens, gate jumping etc are all different!

Images you could argue... however I am trying to avoid this issue as much as possible! You could argue that me uploading a Private server with DarkOrbits images in it is EXACTLY the same as uploading a Youtube video of me playing the game. Where are the lines drawn?

Waiting for public version <3

I can't understand. Knight Online, Silkroad and a lot game have pvp servers. Moreover they are selling items with money. But BP is a huge **** dude. They need to give us permission for this..
