Welcome!
Its been 5 years since the SFC2.net website has been offline, but now its back up! The site itself is still in exactly the same condition as you last saw it, lol.
Over the next few weeks, the SFC2.net admin team will be reviewing and updating the site, but for now, we thought for purposes of nostalgia and all of you who were around in the days of Canada West, that we have the site back up before doing any updates. Screenshot of the week seems to have become Screenshot of the last 5 years! (poor Tantulus!).
Thanks go to Frey and Xenocorp, and also to Bonk, who without their efforts, this website would still be collecting dust in someone's basement.
The forums can be reached by clicking on the forum link in the left hand menu. We'll also be updating the pilot profiles very soon, so if you'd like your profile listed, or updated, please either post in the forums here, or in the D2 experiences at dynaverse.net
Alternatively, you can email Capt Jeff (capt_jeff_1af@hotmail.com)
Stay tuned for updates!

Many people have asked us about the eagerly awaited SFC2.Net 7.0 Campaign. This campaign will be the first Campaign to use the new SQL Server kit which promises to improve the game no end!
We have many many ideas in the works for what is being referred to as CW7, all of which promise to make SFC2 a game like no other!
Stay tuned for more news as it develops. I just want to assure everyone that it is in our minds and we have not forgotten :)

This Tuesday CW6 will be offline for the entire day. Starting at 1am PST Tuesday morning, till 1am Wendsday morning.
This is expressly for the purpose of getting the highest possible population count on FunBeta. FunBeta as most know is using the most recent SQL build which apears to be stable.
To confirm this we must stress test it with the highest possible population we can muster. All SFC2.Net CW6 players are asked to please spend what time you would have on the main server Tuesday on FunBeta.
FunBeta will be set to a maximum population of 200, if we can hit this number a new age will come to D2.
We look foward to see'ing you all on Tuesday. FunBeta will retain it's current settings of 1 turn auctions, 5 minute turns, and 100,000 starting prestige.
Regardless of the Stress test results CW6 will continue to use the FlatFile.We have no way to convert the database to SQL. However it will allow us to start planning out CW7 so that it can start right on the heals of CW6's end.

SFC2.net 6 (CW6) is cruising along.
We've certainly had our share of instability issues with the database (as expected) but the database cleaner is helping. Version 0.0.1 is in use, version 1.0 should be coming out this weekend which should get us back to 100% stability!! Watch for more news... or just keep playing :)

The server will be coming down in about 26 minutes, 12 noon PST, for a day of DB edits, settings changes and some more tests. It will be back up and running either 12 or 24 hours later, depending on our progress.
There will be no reset, it will pick-up where it left off.
Any RM or Asst RM who has not recieved your ship, get in contact with me about your account, we will be having a short "dreadfest" for you guys if we can coordinate it, so you all can grab your flagships.
Any other unreported problems let me know about them ASAP.
Thanks

The Campaign is under way! An amazing 125 players logged on in the first 8 minutes of the start! Unfortunatly due to the Server Kit we had to limit this down to 100.
Check out the Campaign section for information on SFC2.Net 6.0 - Storm Season. You'll also find our exclusive Live Webmap utility which enables you to check on the campaign without logging onto the Campaign. You'll never be bored at work again :)See you on there!

Just some updates for everyone :)
The latest Campaign from SFC2.Net is in the works and will be released soon! A tentative date is the 22nd of March. If you are interested in taking part and want to link up with some other players from your race of choice please visit the Taldren Forums. You'll also find some excellent pre-campaign propaganda created by the fans!
The campaign will be run on our brand new monster of a server, which will hopefully support a player population of 200!!

Please visit www.khoromag.com for all the latest patches and downloads.
We hope to have everything back to normal very soon!!

IMPORTANT!! From the Khoromag team:
This is a warning to all Windows XP users with Norton Antivirus 2002. There is a confirmed and known bug in this release of NAV on XP that can cause corruption of the OP patches *during* download. If the patch is corrupted during download you will receive a "file corrupt" error message during unpacking. The way to remedy this is to disable Auto-Protect during the download. You can re-enable Auto-Protect before you run the patch program
See the original announcement here.
Thanks!

SFC2.Net Campaign 5.75 for Empires At War is underway!!
New sections added to the campaign section. There are now links to the live Web Map and 2 pages of player stats.
(Player stats are processed manually so they are not live and up to date. They are run about once a day.)
This campaign has just begun... get in and cause some trouble and have some fun!! The Klingons have united with the Federation to fend off the Mirak, Romulans, ISC, Lyran, Gorn and Hydrans. It will be a bloody battle, but a good battle?
