And if so, what tactics did they use? Pester the devs? Crowdfunding to buy the rights to the game from the devs? Something else?

Edit: I’m more looking for instances of the actual original game being open-sourced through fan efforts or outright purchase, like how Blender was originally open-sourced as a result of a crowdfunding campaign. The open-source rewrites of games are awesome, but I don’t have the skills to build a relatively elaborate game on my own. It’s also not a popular game, more niche, really, so I’m just wondering what are the possibilities.

    Ah I see. Did you change the lobby URL in the config file? There’s a config file with a lobby URL, you need to change it to point to the correct lobby where servers will show. Or is that what you with the changing the default server?

    Edit: Just checking, are you running at least version 2.65? Also, I mentioned changing the config file, I’ve just been reminded the file is downloaded separately and then just replaced, no need to change it. I’ll DM the unofficial “official” guide from the forums.
