The Unofficial Patch 1.5 Statistics Website now displays the Average and Maximum Number of Players Online, thanks to the "Keep Alive" feature in the Launcher: https://www.ee2.eu/statistics/#online
I decided to share the Unofficial Patch 1.5 Launcher C++ source code for interested people: https://forum.ee2.eu/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=5026 It requires a donation to prevent abuses, software thieves, etc. Hopefully somebody will find it useful and help to cover EE2.eu costs!
I created a new MonaNAT Server in Poland. It should reduce pings between EU -> Middle/Far East by ~25 ms. What is MonaNAT?: https://www.ee2.eu/multiplayer/help/#monanat
We detected a bug in version 158025 where on EE2: AOS messages in started game are not displaying. It's currently being investigated and the hotfix update will be released.
Minor Update 158025 for Unofficial Patch 1.5 has been released! Changes: https://ee2.eu/patch/changes/#158025
Today (6.09.2022), around 00:45 the Multiplayer Lobby has hanged. I was aware of this issue, but I tried to gather more information before restarting it. I finally restarted it around 3:00 with the advanced debugging enabled. I also fixed some of auto-restarting functions.
Minor Update 158024 for Unofficial Patch 1.5 has been released! Changes: https://ee2.eu/patch/changes/#158024
Some of the planned features / changes will be moved to the next (after the upcoming) UP1.5 Monthly Update. It's because my TO DO list is continuously increasing, and if I don't split these changes, then the update will never come.
We still experience issues with the unreliable provider, who broke certain connectivity features after the "maintenance", and refuses to fix them. Our main server will be migrated to a new one at the end of November 2022. Until then, I apologize for the inconvenience.
[1/9] Regarding UP1.5 updates, I was recently trying many things, but most of them failed stability tests. TBMs missiles were supposed to cost resources, but it can't be done due to a bug which was fixed in: https://ee2.eu/patch/changes/#157034 but can only be applied to buildings.
IPv6 is currently not working on our main server, because provider has changed something and it doesn't work even when I correctly configured it. IPv6 is used for some internal connections (lobby auto-translator, etc.) All things fallbacked correctly to IPv4 so it's all good.

Good evening everyone. Please do not worry about the lack of updates from me. The activity is going to be back to normal after the Summer. I'm currently in the mode of "tracking" issues and analyzing crash reports. I also do a lot of undocumented improvements with the server, etc

In the time of North Korea's threats, it's good to watch this EE2 video again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2m-d7-uabDQ :D
Some days ago I bought a 4TB HDD for backups, and the same day fu**g WD Nas Device removed 4TB of my data. Lost EE2 vids in Full Quality too

Decision of the Department of Control in ee2glitchers forum case: https://forum.ee2.eu/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=1864
It's time to SHUT DOWN ee2glitchers ( http://ee2glitchers.ace.st/ ) forums. It has been unused for 5 years, game glitches are fixed with UP1.5.
Last days MP Lobby restarted several times. It was not because of Server problems, but MonaNAT/Lobby updates which I released and tested.
Server migration completed. Please clear your DNS cache if you experience problems connecting to EE2.eu.
EE2.eu Server Migration starts soon. The Multiplayer Lobby and the other things might not work for a few minutes.
Nice! So with this logic I can't admonish somebody on the Lobby, because it makes me RELIGION HATER. How pathetic is his understanding?
http://forum.ee2.eu has been updated to phpBB version 3.2.1. Security always first :)
[1/2] Due to Server performance problems I decided to migrate to a new Server. EE2.eu was restored from a backup created: 16.07.2017 00:00.
[2/2] Accounts created between 00:00 to 08:00 are gone and should be re-created. In case of problems please use the support chat in Launcher
