Thanks to the players that participated to the test phase of Phoenix, we've made a lot of progress in very little time. The server can now be considered as "nearly ready to launch" and while few things may still change, you can now have a taste at what to expect when it launches by jumping on our test server now.

 

Phoenix 100x will be launching on the 20th, May, 2015.

 

Make sure to go through the "All you need to know about Phoenix" thread to ensure you understand how the server actually works and don't end up thinking - for example, "this is an ertheia server". It isn't! The concept is unique and the only thing Phoenix has from Ertheia are a few features. Anything inbetween 1 and 99 isn't just part of the leveling process here. Read more on that in the previously linked thread.

 

We're going to continue polishing things on the test server till a day or so prior the launch. Jump in while it's still up, free currencies and instant level 99 will give you the opportunity to test many things without spending too much time.

 

One love!  emoticon-0134-bear.gif

Tired of those servers wiping every 2 months and bringing you the same shit over and over again? try something different. Try something unique. Try something built to last. Phoenix is still in test but not for long - jump in now to have the privilege of testing many things without spending too much time, using the Test Server Features. (Instant top level, free currencies...)

I really like the idea of the server. Sad to say but I think  server wont have enough people to play there..... Lets hope i`m wrong. Advertise more!!

Posted (edited)

yes advertising is so low.

 

or l2 is too dead

Dreams was once top server with 3k+ real online!

 

I appreciate Ghost patience & work, also his passion for l2!

Dreams was my most favorite server of all the times and ive played it since 2008 to 2011 / His server gives a total different vibe than any other l2 server that ever existed

So much work done there, it could grow so huge with proper advertising... However this is not a good time to open a server now that Innova Classic / that private Classic / e-global hype is up...

 

Anyway potential is still there .)

    • You can find some H5 skins shared in old L2 modding Discords, but most of the higher‑quality ones are either paid or come bundled with full client edits. I usually mix in commissioned work and whatever I can patch myself. On a side note, I fund a lot of these commissions by selling off game items through instant sell cs2 skins, which has been a quick way for me to get some cash for projects.
    • There is no need for gRPC in this case, even tho originally it was gRPC based but since we don't need it to be bi-directional, we switched to simple http requests for the web calls and SSEs for the data streamed from the server. There are distributed locks in place to precent race conditions between actions that can happen between multiple web instances and the server.   Local models can also be slow depending on the model, and most external models can actually be faster than local ones if you use Flash 2.5 or something along those lines. I am running on 512GB of Unified Memory on my Mac Studio M3 Ultra so the speed of the local model for a small model is pretty good but I tested it with Gemini too and it works equally as fast and in some cases faster. The way it works is that I'm using pgvector (one of the benefits of moving to Postgres) to search the data and see what the player can see etc and there is some batching of the next few actions for 2-4 seconds for the user until the next LLM request fires. The batching also includes branching on logic so if they for example fall under some HP they will move to kiting instead of attacking or maybe they heal etc.   Everything is authed and permission-based. The server and the backend of the frontend have secure communication between them, either with a symmetric key (not recommended for production) or a certificate (the recommended way), so there is no worry. It's all tied to the account's access level, etc., so nobody can make an action that they normally wouldn't be allowed to do. Even the MCP is token-based, and there are prompt injection protections in place. The MCP is audited, and every mutation needs confirmation. The admin area is only accessible to the admin account anyway so normal users can't access it.  
    • First of all, its great to finally have something meaningful to discuss on this forum  and good job pushing this community forward, even if its mostly dead. I always wondered why, in the last 15 years, no one has properly documented any of the source code (acis mobius) or at least exposed common functionality through something like a rest api, which is straightforward enough for most people to understand and use.   I have some technical questions since im really interested   Regarding real time features like maps and enchanting  are you using technologies like grpc? And what happens when both a logged in player and panel try to enchant the same item at the same time? Do we run into a race condition how do you handle that ?   Regarding  fake player system  external models calls typically take 1-2 seconds to respond, while an local models might take around 200-300ms. During that time a lot can happen in game. So when the plan becomes stale you override it and wait for the new one  meaning the node handles everything in real time and the LLM simply sets the goal asynchronously. Is that the correct understanding ?   Regarding the security aspect a lot can go wrong when exposing crucial server logic to the open web (experimental is good). My real concern is  the mcp in the panel where  a lot can go wrong with bad user input.      Wasn't the game client always the limiting factor for l2j?
    • Migrating a legacy Interlude server to PostgreSQL while adding real observability is basically forcing 2006 MMO engineering to attend a 2026 infrastructure conference at gunpoint. PS: which revision of aCis? PS: 🧻what was broken during this whatever you call it.    AAC Guard beign asked to adapt to this be like: - Creating bugs since early 2018
