Migrating Server


modetwo

Recommended Posts

The company I'm hosted with is migrating all their servers from one datacentre to another. Instead of leasing servers from ThePlanet, they've now grown so much that they're able to buy their own hardware. This means a faster server for me at the same price. And because they change datacentres the hosting staff also gets physical access to the servers 24/7 - no more waiting for ThePlanet engineers to reboot a server if something goes awfully wrong (not that it ever does).

 

I've already recieved the new account, and within 3 weeks I will have to migrate the websites over to the new server. This shouldn't have much impact on these forums tho, as I'm going to move everything over before I change the modetwo.net's IP-address. A few hours downtime at the most.

 

This is just a heads up. I'll update this thread once I have an exact time I will do this.

Complete!

 

I just transfered modetwo.net as the last website over to the new server. Downtime was less than an hour. PHP is still being served at the old server (until modetwo.net is updated in DNS with the new server IP), but the mysql-database is on the new server. This way we are all using the same database until the domain has switched over.

      Has anyone had any luck with textures from Polyhaven? Their OpenEXR normal maps seem too washed out and give incorrect shading in the engine.

      I tried to upscale the TDM logo video. First try:

      briefing_video.mp4 You can test it ingame by making a copy of the core tdm_gui.mtr and place it in your-tdm-root/materials/ , then edit line 249 of that file into the location where you placed the new briefing.mp4 file.
      What I did was I extracted all the image files, then used Upscayl to upscale the images using General photo (Real-Esrgan) upscale setting and then turn it back into a video.
      I might have to crop it a bit, the logo looks smaller on screen (or maybe it's actually better this way?). My video editor turned it into a 16:9 video, which I think overal looks better than 1:1 video of original.

      Finally got round to publishing a tutorial on baking normal maps in Blender, since most of the ones we have are inaccessible or years out of date.
