Mariusnet supports all three myth games as well as Marathon Aleph One.
|
This website (getmyth.com) explains everything you need to know about myth.
|
Probably the two best places to start would be http://source.bungie.org or the discussion boards over at http://www.pfhorums.com/.
|
Grab the Myth Update from ProjectMagma.net and you're all set. It has all of the server plugins built-in as well as a nifty server swapper built-in. No more manual swapping of server files to switch between metaservers :)
|
First upgrade to the latest version of Myth III (1.3.1 at the time of this writing).
Next, download this Metaserver file for Myth III and place it in your Myth III preferences/ folder (backup your old one first).
The interface on the login screen where you put in your username/password will still say PlayMyth untill/unless a plugin is made that replaces it, but you most definitely will log into Mariusnet with it. It is easily verified by just reading the Blue Bar message upon login.
To revert to PlayMyth, just delete the file and let the game write a new one, or copy back the one you backed up.
|
Yes, you can use the Registration Page to request a new account. HOWEVER, in the interim you can just log in using the username 'guest' and anything for the password and you'll be able to log in just fine (with some restrictions like no ranked gameplay).
|
The most recent versions of Myth TFL and Myth II Soulblighter include a built in "server swapper" tool on the multiplayer screen to choose the metaserver of your liking. Instructions for connecting to mariusnet with Myth III will be provided soontm.
|
Click 'My Stuff'->MyClans, Click one of the Create a Clan buttons. Specify a name for the clan, click Create.
Your clan will be created on the website and the metaserver and you will be the founder of the clan. Every clan gets a private forum here on MariusNet.com viewable only by members of that clan.
|
In order to join a clan you must first be invited. To invite someone to join your clan, go to that users profile here on the website, or click on their username in a post and select "Send Clan Invitation". Once that user has accepted your invitation they will be added to your clan on the metaserver and the website and granted access to your clan's private forum.
|
Click on "My Stuff" and select "My Clans", from here you can manage al of your clans details including website address, logo address, remove players from the clan, manage the clan map standard, etc.
Please note: At present only the clan founder can manage the clan. A new hierarchy system is being developed and should be available soontm.
|
This error means that there is a piece of hardware or software preventing people from connecting to your host. If you are behind a router, or Network Address Translation (NAT) firewall, you will need to forward the port 3453 to the computer you intend to host with. This website (http://portforward.com/routers.htm) describes the process in detail for most consumer routers. It is also possible you have a software firewall preventing incoming connections to your Myth host. Ensure that any software firewalls (like windows firewall, comodo, zonealarm, etc) have been properly configured to allow myth to accept incoming connections.

.Commands are commands that can be entered into the mariusnet lobby to perform some task. Mariusnet has a very comprehensive collection of .Commands providing lots of useful functionality described at our .commands page (may not be exhaustive). For a quick list of commands type .help in the mariusnet lobby, or .help [command] (without the square brackets) to get a detailed description of any particular command.
|
Yup, though it's Windows-only. You can download it right here
|
Yes, you can access this xml file which is generated frequently allowing you to get up to date information about the mariusnet server and its users.
|
You don't earn Points at all in this system. The number is a computed rating or score based upon how you do against everyone you've played which is based upon everyone they've played, etc...
|
Stop thinking of it as "points"... there is no exchange of "points" like in other ranking systems. Start thinking of it as a score that rates you based upon how you do against those you have played.
|
Just as there is no spoon, there are no points.
|
Games "age out" from the stats over time, so older games won't be counted in your number of games stat.
|
Games "age" out.... a game played 90 days ago is worth nearly nothing when computing your score, and a game played 30 days ago might be worth merely half what it originally was.
|
There are no 'points'. See above.
The more games you play, the harder it is to get your score to move... similar to the effect using an averaging system would have.
|
The day you play the game, that game carries its maximum value and it will decrease in value over the 'Aging Interval' until its value reaches zero, at which point it will no longer count toward your stats.
|
|
The current aging interval is 90 days. |
|
That's not a question.

The Email Address field is used for email notifications, forum subscriptions and to email your password. The Public Email Address field is what other users see when they view your profile. We realize that you may not want everyone to know your real email address, but we need to know it in case you want to subscribe to a forum or if you want to have replies emailed to you. For this reason you can give us your real email address in the Email Address field and only the Administrators of the board will see it. You can provide a different email address for the general public using the Public Email Address. Some people like to put in something like scream@no.spam.yahoo.com. This way people can still figure out what your real email address is, but spamming agents can't just parse through the page and obtain your email address to spam you.

If you have registered with these forums, you must log in to take advantage of the personalization of settings. To log in, look in the upper right-hand corner of your screen for the "Log In" link. This link will take you to a page where you can enter your Username (email address) and Password. Keep in mind that the password is always case-sensitive.

(You can change the page used for your Default Starting View by clicking "Edit Preferences" in the Forum Navigation island.)

If you have forgotten your password, dont worry! You can very easily have a temporary password emailed to you. Go to the Log In page and click "Have you forgotten your login information?". Enter your real email address into the Email Address field and a temporary password will be emailed to the email address used for the account setup.
This process is safe because the password is only emailed to the original owner of the account. There is no way to steal the password by using this feature.
|
You may change your password any time. On the Forum Navigation island, click "Edit Profile". Edit the Password and Verify Password fields and then click "Submit" to save the information. (Keep in mind that passwords are case-sensitive.)
|
In order to add an image to your message or your signature, you must have the image already available on a web server and reachable by a URL. This can be an image on your own personal web page, for example. To place an image within a message, simply use the following Markup Tag:
[image]http://www.url_to_image.com/image_name.gif[/image]
For example, if you have an image called cateye.gif and its available from your own website at http://www.mywebsite.com/pics, then you would use the following image markup:
[image]http://www.mywebsite.com/pics/cateye.gif[/image]
You can do the same for your signature. Click the My Home option found on any page. Then, under the Main Configuration heading, click on "Personal Information, email, password...". Look for the Signature box, and enter your desired information, including any images/markup as above.
Note: To keep the forums loading quickly for everyone, it is recommended that you do not exceed 35k for your image size.
|
We ask that you keep your images relatively small. As a rule, please do not exceed 125 x 600 pixels and/or 35k for a signature image. This will ensure that the forums load quickly for all users.

Click the "Edit Profile" link on the Forum Navigation island.
|
Yes, you'll be missing a trick if you fail to take advantage of the versatility offered. There are many aspects of how the Forums are displayed that may be customized. On the Forum Navigation island, click "Edit Preferences".
You can choose the stylesheet in which you wish to view the forums, how many posts are displayed on each page, whether or not you want to view users' pictures alongside their posts, and much more. Once saved, these become your default settings. You may edit these preferences again at anytime.
|
The first post of a given topic establishes the subject by which all subsequent replies will be known. Once there's been a reply, the topic subject cannot be subsequently changed. It's therefore important to get the subject right from the outset. Make it as descriptive and as specific as possible. For example, 'LCD burn-in questions', is much better than something completely generic, such as 'Newbie needs help!'. Not only is it more likely to elicit a response, but it'll also make it much easier for all posts in the topic to be subsequently located.
|
One of the key benefits of the discussion board format is that it enables commonly asked questions to be answered once, for the benefit of all. Before posting your question, it is always worth checking to see if it has already been asked - and answered! You can do this via the Search island. Using the Search island, you can perform a quick keyword search, or click on the "Advanced" button to search by more specific criteria. Various options are available, both for how the search term is specified and for controlling how many forums you want to search. This is where the specificity of topic subjects is important, making it much easier to locate precisely what it is you're after from a list of search results.
|
It means that you have unread Private Messages.
|
'N' denotes an unread (new) message.
'R' denotes a message that it has a new reply.
A space denotes a message that's been read but has no reply.
|
If the tags are showing up in your text or you're getting a link, but it's to 'http:///', you're including some unwanted spaces in the syntax. Avoid any intervening spaces, and everything will work fine.
|
Users can edit their own posts up to 180 minutes after they are made. Where the change is substantial, it is courteous mark the post as edited so as to alert readers to the changed content. For cosmetic changes, it's better not to do so.
|
Let the forum Administrator or Moderator know - he/she will be able to move it for you.
