Title: Back in Business
Post by: Lightning on 29-03-2009, 18:03:56
From: http://forgottenhope.warumdarum.de/main.php?lang=english&id_news=280


Hello and welcome back,

After a few sleepless nights, we are now finally done moving all our content from FileFront to our new host warumdarum.de (http://www.warumdarum.de). Before we say anything else though, we would like to give a warm 'Thank you' to our long time supporter and owner of our new host Flüstertüte and Andi, without whom such a speedy transition would not have been possible. They have been a great help, not only with our website and developer forum, but also with our brand new public forum.

We would also like to thank FileFront, for the past 5 years our reliable host. It is a real shame such a great community has so suddenly disappeared, but some of the old forum staff is already working on a new forum. We will of course keep you up to date on these events as we learn more.

Last but not least, we also want to thank the all those in the Forgotten Hope community who have offered to host our website and forums. We have received dozens of offers and we really appreciate that so many people would want help us out so quickly.


You can now find our website at: http://forgottenhope.warumdarum.de (http://forgottenhope.warumdarum.de)

You can find our new forum here: http://fhpubforum.warumdarum.de/index.php (http://fhpubforum.warumdarum.de)

We hope you will enjoy our new forum.

It's good to be back all official and all. We will remember FF, the sudden los was a big one and totally unexpected even for the forum staff and FF management. Ohwell, onwards to better times both on these FH dedicated forums and the upcomming new GF forums. :)

Huge thanks for our new masters, I mean, hosts, the Warumdarum! Thank you so much for such quick actions and absolutely great service.

Good to be back.

Hats of to Flüstertüte and Andi, but also Filefront which has been our home for such a long time. Let's make this place as enjoyable as Gaming Forums.

Nice to see that the com is not homeless anymore.

I prefer this forum-layout much more than the old one.

p.s. I change my last username (Troika) into my playername ...

Cya.

Ah, I heard the name Flüstertüte in relation to our new host, but didn't know of that connecting to Warumdarum.  This makes a lot of sense, as they've always seemed very supportive of FH :)

Yep, but soon we'll be using rocks for ammunition :P ...

BTW, my glaringly white sig is still under construction ... lol. But, with the new sig restrictions I managed to cunningly sneek in my full size bee bomb gif  with a vanishingly small gif size.

It will just sound so horribly weird if we hear more comments like "Man, he just whipped me" or "Yay! I got kissed by [insername]!" or "You´ve done such a great work, here, I´ll give you a kiss" or "You were bad! Very bad! Feel the whip!".

Actually, I really hope there IS an April Fools joke.  We all know it would be, but it would add some levity to the situation.

Well, at first, I thought the FileFront shutdown was an April Fool's Joke, so I guess I'm ready for a more light-hearted one about now.  Oh, and changing to the 1943 engine is not funny.

I feel slightly disturbed when I get kissed by unknown people. Atleast admit that you like me xD
In two days it´s April 1st, time for a new update? ;)

I am very glad to see you all again!

My blood really vanished from my head when I noticed that you were gone from FileFront. "This is it," I thought!

However, I think this forum (of your own) will give a boost to your mod. It is always more easy and more welcoming to join a dedicated forum, than to search among posts, thread, sections and God knows what, just to find ... something.

Skyttegrav.se will continue to support and host "Forgotten Hope 2" and we are looking forward to see this mod raise once more.

Good luck and I see you later!

Title: Re: Back in Business

Not released yet. Will be released as soon as it's ready, I suppose.

We all know WW2 was about fighting for the rights to colour. That's why ITV always show those "WW2 in Colour" documentaries .. to show what we were fighting for.

Don't know about you guys, but http://fhmod.org doesn't work for me for few days.
Title: Re: Back in Business
Post by: Die Happy on 09-04-2009, 12:04:43
works fine for me
maybe some dns issue ?

edit: just checked ping wokrs on the servers ip but tracert shows lots of unreachable hops

so i guess it is a dns issues
try the following
open a command window (windows button > execute > cmd ) then try the following commands there
Quote
ping 64.202.189.170
ping fhmod.org
tracert fhmod.org

if the ip is reachable but the fhmod.org not there are some dns issues. you could try clearing your dns cache or just wait for it to fix itself (can take a few days)
i guess i still got the dns cached thats wh i can reach it without problems

you could also try this url http://forgottenhope.warumdarum.de/ (http://forgottenhope.warumdarum.de/)
this url has a hole different ip so i might work better
Title: Re: Back in Business
Post by: fh_spitfire on 09-04-2009, 12:04:42
I can't even reach the domain IP. Maybe that's my "wonderful" ISP...

And yea, I know the direct address but  it's easier to type fhmod.org when I'm on remote computer :)
