Generator Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Just checking, does anyone know if one or the other is more accurate or "better" in some manner? Thanks, Generator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired Game Master GM Fiddleback Posted July 17, 2019 Retired Game Master Share Posted July 17, 2019 The only one to use is: http://patch.savecoh.com/manifest.xml That's it. If you want to play Homecoming, that's the one to use. No other. There was, temporarily, a different one, because the machine hosting the other one was offlined for a bit quite some time ago. But all has long since been restored. So, accept no substitutes. "No, really. He's a GM. Don't ask me." --The Entire Server, probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generator Posted July 17, 2019 Author Share Posted July 17, 2019 Ah, okay. I had not been aware that the second manifest was a temporary affair. Now I know, and the rest is all red and blue lasers. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WanderingAries Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Ah, okay. I had not been aware that the second manifest was a temporary affair. Now I know, and the rest is all red and blue lasers. Thanks! It was like a one time/day thing I believe when the related server was down. The thread it was posted in also mentioned to resume using the original.

I only saw indirect references to the second manifest, so I missed getting the full picture at the time. But thanks for the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterDutcher Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 The temp one is actually still working. I just checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired Game Master GM Capocollo Posted August 9, 2019 Retired Game Master Share Posted August 9, 2019 It won't always be. That's why we recommend you switch back to the main manifest as soon as you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnder Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I've switched back now and it seems to be working again, but note that for some of us the main server was not working for most of this week, so we were forced to continue using the backup.

This was caused by a sudden need to change nameservers on the patch domain entirely which can take 72 hours to propagate to everyone. The issue should now be resolved though. If you need help, please submit a support request here or use /petition in-game. Got time to spare? Want to see Homecoming thrive? Consider volunteering as a Game Master!

Well Actually, (probably from reading the related forum posting) I've been using the newer (?) link for a long time now, but I also don't seem to be logging in when they're having server issues for the most part. http://www.savecoh.com/manifest.xml OG Server: Pinnacle <||> Current Primary Server: Torchbearer || Also found on the others if desired <||> Generally Inactive Installing CoX: Windows || MacOS || MacOS for M1 <||> Migrating Data from an Older Installation Clubs: Mid's Hero Designer || PC Builders || HC Wiki || Jerk Hackers Old Forums <||> Titan Network <||> Heroica!

If I don't know about it, nobody on the GM team does!) but it redirects to the main manifest, so it's really six of one, half a dozen of the other. "We need Widower. He's a drop of sanity in a bowl of chaos - very important." - Cipher Are you also a drop of sanity in a bowl of chaos? Consider applying to be a Game Master!

Just wanted to say, that is probably the best GI Joe reference I have ever read. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
