Yea, it's hard getting/keeping cred these days. I may set the next update to where the Login message stays how it is and allow people to change the world name to Titan, Phoenix, My Wittle World.. or whatever.
It's nice to see more people getting back and interested into FFXI p.servers. We've gotten a lot of new faces as of late. Hopefully in time a decent sized community will emerge. Been a while since I had a nice Dynamis/Sky run.
Agree that a lot of people move **** around, slap their name on it and send it out. We spent the most time moving most of that back and fixing the lingering bugs that people created over time. There was some good work in the source when we got it though. Bit of a bummer the PXI team wasn't able to finish it.
The new Dark Star server was by far the best thing to just fall in our lap. The devs are great and easy to work with and the server is coming along really well. Very happy and grateful to be on that team building this new server.

Might as well add this instead of a 2nd post.
Incomming update!
- Fixed 39 errors/warnings in the source.
- Reworked some math in mob attack/ability damage
- All characters automatically get all spells and key items when they log in.
(this was done to control it a bit better than the @ commands)
- Now runs on linux/wine.
(Getting it to run native linux isn't an option)
- NM's will Check/show up as ITG eventually. (not done yet)
This is currently running on a test phase so the more people that can get on it and run through it the sooner I can get this release out there. All the information on how to connect is on the Dark Star forums in the stress test threads.
Though we are not developing this server any longer I still like to do little things to improve the stability, functionality of the server.
