    Hello Xsyon Citizens!

    I am upgrading the servers this week. The new Test Server and Download Server are already up and running. Next up I will move the War and Peace Servers and then back to working on updates!

    This upgrade will require a new Xsyon Launcher. The new launcher will be available in the download section of your account page shortly. A notice will be posted in the current launcher window when the new version is ready.

  2. Developer Update 2019.03.18

    Hello everyone!

    The servers are currently down (at 9:15 AM PST) for a patch. I am updating the database and software that Xsyon depends on. This is the final preparation patch before I start rolling out new features including pets and mounts and many other upcoming improvements.

    The servers may be down for several hours as there is a lot to upgrade and check today.

    Enjoy!

  5. Developer Update 2018.10.01

    Hello Xsyon Citizens!

    Sorry for the silence this past month. I had some personal issues to deal with but am back in full swing now.

    As my main work system was starting to fail I've upgraded to a new system. In doing so I am upgrading all software that I use to develop Xsyon. In addition I am upgrading all systems that the Xsyon servers use. This includes the database and libraries that Xsyon relies on and it's taking a while!

    Once everything is upgraded we ...
