Brainwine
Brainwine is a private server written in Java for a game called Deepworld, made with user-friendliness and portability in mind. Due to the time it will take for this project to be complete (and my inconsistent working on it,) brainwine has been prematurely open-sourced and is free for all to use. Keep in mind, though, that this server is nowhere near finished. Expect to encounter bad code, bugs and missing features! Brainwine is currently only compatible with the Steam version of Deepworld.
Setup
Setting up your client
Before you can connect to your (or someone elses) server, you must first let Deepworld know to where it should connect.
To do this, open the Registry Editor and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Bytebin LLC\Deepworld
.
Look for a String Value called gateway
or create it if it doesn't exist. Change the value to local
if you wish to connect to an instance running on your PC, otherwise
enter the host address and port of the server you wish to join. For example: 12.345.67.89:5001
If you did everything correctly, your client should now be ready.
Setting up the server
Setting up your own server is as easy as downloading this repository and running gradlew build
in a command prompt.
Alternatively, you can run the provided build.bat
file. After the build task has finished, the output jar will be located in the build
directory.
To start the server, simply run the jar file with a simple command line such as java -jar brainwine.jar -Xms128m -Xmx512m
.
Be aware that Java 8 or newer is required to run Brainwine.
If for whatever reason you are unable to create a build, you can download the latest release package here.
Note that these aren't always up-to-date, though!
