Connection issues with Lich this morning?

[Kim]

So, I'm not sure what could be causing this. I'm able to connect with Stormfront without issue. But, I cannot connect with Lich for whatever reason this morning. I keep getting a "error: failed to connect to server" pop-up when trying.

Is anyone else encountering problems connecting this morning? I feel completely out of my element trying to play vanilla GSIV. lol

There are two other topics on this. So... probably. I mean it could just be you. It could be everyone. But it's probably just you.

Oh thank you, i haven't run across the other topics. I'll do some more digging to find them.

Don't worry baby bird, I'll feed you.


[help]-GSIV:Leier: "any thoughts on why all of a sudden lich won't log my other character in?"
[help]-GSIV:Cinderon: "it's broken right now"
[help]-GSIV:Leier: "well shit"
[help]-GSIV:Tillmen: "The Simu login server seems to be down. Not related to Lich."
[help]-GSIV:Cinderon: "Ah, damnit Simu!"
[help]-GSIV:Tillmen: "Supposedly you can still log in from the website."
[help]-GSIV:Leier: "gotcha, was able to get in through the website, so I just assumed lich."
[help]-GSIV:Leier: "but then obviously I didn't have lich"
[help]-GSIV:Tillmen: "You should be able to log in through the website and still have Lich."
[help]-GSIV:Tyvorheas: "how do i even login through the website and use lich"
[help]-GSIV:Tyvorheas: "oh it just happens?"
[help]-GSIV:Tillmen: "Open up Lich, switch to the Link tab, click Link to Website."
[help]-GSIV:Tillmen: "Doesn't work with Internet Explorer."
[help]-GSIV:Leier: "nice! didn't know about that link feature, thanks."

Having issues as well. And being this is the lich forum, it seems logical to start a thread here to talk about it. ;)

Yes: Gemstone up, Lich down

Yes: Gemstone up, Lich downLich isn't down, the Game Entry appears to be down. Something messed up on the Simu server.

One thing I did notice on my PC is that I did the link but it doesn't seem to grab through the online login so lich isn't starting through that as Tillmen said it would. When it asks for what to open with, do I use the SGE or ruby/lich?

EDIT: Looks like that worked. On Firefox, when clicking to log in it will ask what to open the SGE file with. Change the default to your Lich folder and type in lich.rbw.

Hoping Simu gets this working before I get home from work. The workaround doesn't seem to want to work with my Mac via Wine. Which I'm sure there's SOMETHING I need to set, I just don't know what :) But ... the office calls today.

("Always use this program to open"). But, I'm not too friendly with Macs so it could be a different process.
