Connect to....

82.44.1.200:10001 to test out my maps. Please report any bugs to me by posting on here or by emailing me at ste_edwards16@hotmail.com



If you have a problem connecting, its possible that there maybe too many players on that port, as the current version of Qnet only allows 3 people at once. In that case, try ports...

I can't connect... Quest just ends up "waiting for response", forever...

I've never tried running my own public QuestNet server before as I was always on dialup. Now I'm on broadband, could somebody please try connecting to me...? It's at alexwarren.dyndns.org and is running on the usual port 10001. Nothing funky there, just the standard ARENA.ASL, so there's not much point hanging around too long.

EDIT: I've now turned the server off.

just bumping this thread to let people know the details to connect.

Note: the attack command is /a <player> and you can only PK in red zones.

I connected (can't remember my name) and the map was big.

The beginning was a tunnel with just a room off to the side every now and then - didn't get much further as everywhere was empty/the same. Maybe changing the descriptions, and instead of just having a BIG place, concentrate more an what is actually there than trying to make it bigger...

A town shouldn't be much bigger than about 200 squares (what, 15 x 15). And that's the major towns and that's when they're BIG.... usual size should be about 6x6 IMO.

i apologise to those with low res monitors who wont see this properly



T = Tavern
H = House
D = Down to Caves
x = Path


that whole map there shows town of Carbralos, dusty path area, beginning of forest (not all of it), and town of Alaverin.

i come from modern day MuDs, and if any of you have played Nightmist, or Realms of Kaos you will have noticed that each path that is the same (Take Enderhill Road in Ebersmile for example), the description is the same.

I've noticed that people are having problems because its all the same description. But Enderhill isnt complete, I will be adding shops, houses, banks, more Taverns, and extra areas to add onto it, and of course, my castle. That way, instead of it saying...


Enderhill Road: This is the main street of Carbralos. All the shops are located on this street. The path leads you all the way to the gatehouse, and onto the forest.
Exits: east or west



everywhere along the whole street, the description will change more often, and you might see....


Enderhill Road: This is the main street of Carbralos. All the shops are located on this street. The path leads you all the way to the gatehouse, and onto the forest. Enderhills House is north.
Exits: east or west

Enderhill Road: This is the main street of Carbralos. All the shops are located on this street. The path leads you all the way to the gatehouse, and onto the forest. The path north leads to the Castle Gates.
Exits: east or west

Enderhill Road: This is the main street of Carbralos. All the shops are located on this street. The path leads you all the way to the gatehouse, and onto the forest. Carbralos Tavern is West
Exits: east or west



This will basically help you remember where you are on the street.

I know the street description is still the same, but what more can i say about a road? You'll get used to it i promise :roll:

I might also be adding the objects list at the end of the description.


Enderhill Road: This is the main street of Carbralos. All the shops are located on this street. The path leads you all the way to the gatehouse, and onto the forest. There is Squiggle, Computer Whizz, Alex, Naked Chick here.
Exits: east or west
