    Empiriana

    Thank you Reonis and Annul for the help getting Emp back up and running properly! It's also been really neat coming across all these old memories as I go through things. Like this one: busy night in one of the Empiriana Taverns from way back when. Good times... good times.

    Empiriana

    Will do Reonis! I've been going through a bunch of Empiriana stuff lately. It's been a really long time since I've dug much into the actual Empiriana dungeon content, I kind of forgot how much stuff there is in there. The dungeon itself is pretty big. 171 maps of 25x25 grids. 106,875 grid...

    Empiriana

    I had this nagging feeling that I had been summoned but just couldn't figure out where. Next time summon with more specificity! Surely, if Emp has taught you anything it has taught you the importance of that! I'm still around and kicking. I hope the rest of you fine folk are as well and have...

    Empiriana

    Hey SD, sorry I missed your email, life has been extremely hectic this last year (in a good way at least). I'm determined to bring Emp back online eventually such that it can stay up on a continuous basis. All materials and the most recent player database image is still intact, it just hasn't...

    Empiriana

    Hello all, I post today with great great sadness, to let you all know that Beamer passed away last Wednesday. He was an awesome friend who went through tons and tons of effort and ordeals with me to create of Empiriana. He had a great passion for Empiriana, the chance to build a game the...

    Empiriana

    Hey guys, yeah sorry about that. The last month or so I've had several out of town trips and much work conspire to keep me away from further work on the server. Time should open up in the next week or two and I'll tackle those periodic server crashes. I will try to keep a closer eye on the...

    Empiriana

    In need of a bit of dusting and cleaning, but otherwise the dungeon is in great condition and running nicely with the new Linux server.

    Calling All Yserbians!!!

    Dammit, I should have recognized that. From that picture it looked like a 2 seater and I couldn't figure out what 2 seater it could be with that cowling design. Arrow's are fantastic planes. I used to fly an Archer III and always wished I could find a good Arrow. They are pretty uncommon...

    Calling All Yserbians!!!

    Me too. One of these days it will appear again on the internet. I still have the server/character database backed up inside a nice stasis spell waiting for someday when I have the time to finish porting the server to linux.

    Calling All Yserbians!!!

    By golly, it's great to see that more than just a few people remember this game. That was ages ago back in the golden age of computer games. Cheers fellow adventurers. Slo, what aircraft is that? I'll be damned but I can figure out what it is. 2 seat? The only thing I can ID in that photo...

    INN-vasion Reunion?

    Just had to throw in a quick post to say that including "aftershock Max" makes this ancient poll full of win.

    Empiriana

    If it ever comes down to that, we'll open the source rather than have it disappear for good. However, in this day and age, the original codebase is quite tricky to host. It was originally developed over 15 years ago for Windows NT 3.51 with many obsolete technologies and API's. It's no...

    Empiriana

    Also, we've setup a Twitter account where you can find the latest news on the status of Empiriana. We'll be sure to keep the Twitter up to date with any important information for those who want to revisit Empiriana as we work to update the web site. http://twitter.com/empiriana

    Empiriana

    Yes, the Empiriana server is back online at last. I've been meaning to get that back up and running for a while and finally it worked out that I both remembered and had some time to take care of it. All the old accounts, characters, high scores, etc. are exactly as they were when it went...

    Yserbius Online Update

    Posts is one of those gray areas. Since we can't find it in the offline ys, if anyone has any screen shots of the posts or the Hall or Heros from the Guild Hall to share, that would be fantastic. The only thing holding us back on that is remembering what it looked like and how it worked. Best...
