.30 Server?

[iscared]

Can someone give me the guide on how to connect to it? I can't find it any more. Yesterday I deleted the ip or w/e and now silkroad doesn't work so I wanna see if thats the reason.

go to
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\
open: hosts (with notepad)

add:

121.128.133.30 gwgt1.joymax.com
121.128.133.29 gwgt2.joymax.com

OR

121.128.133.30 gwgt1.joymax.com
121.128.133.30 gwgt2.joymax.com
121.128.133.30 gwgt3.joymax.com
121.128.133.30 gwgt4.joymax.com

Adding 4 lines with .30 will result in 'server is undergoing inspection or updates' when the .30 is down.
U could also add 3x .30 & gwgt4 as .29

depends on what u want
mine looks like this:

Code: Select all

# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
#      102.54.94.97     rhino.acme.com          # source server
#       38.25.63.10     x.acme.com              # x client host

127.0.0.1       localhost
121.128.133.30 gwgt1.joymax.com
121.128.133.29 gwgt2.joymax.com

Just do
121.128.133.30 gwgt1.joymax.com
121.128.133.30 gwgt2.joymax.com
121.128.133.30 gwgt3.joymax.com
121.128.133.30 gwgt4.joymax.com

Crashing of .30 server happens rarely.

i did all that, i click save and it sayed

Cannot Create:C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\host file. Make sure file name and correct

Navigate to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts and open the file with Notepad, (Right click, select Notepad and make sure that the option to "Always use this application to open this type of file" is NOT selected).

Nake the change, then goto File > Save As, ensure the "Save as file type:" is All files and not *.txt , then click Save. Accept the warning that this will overwrite the existing file.

Does that not work for you?

goldbots dont log into the .30 servers so your not competing against them for a spot in the server , however more and more people are coming to realize about the .30 server so you can still expect to wait 1-2 sometimes 3 hours..but most def, its better then 4-5-6 hours
