It went down (together with all FGS servers) in a month or so after it had been set up, due to hacking attacks (DoS).

You gotta shorten your signature a bit.

That's true..

what I've actually found though while working with other engines.. is that the older ones are actually harder to use than others..

The Source Engine I found really easy to use..
the RTCW/Q3 Engine was extremely difficult as it is older..

that really blows.
well atleast he contributed alot to the community
an will always be remembered for it
by the few of us that stick around for deus's sake.

Well no one can host MMCity, so he didn't contribute that -

He spent 2 years making it to host it for just over 2 weeks before disappearing.

you have a point, he should have atleast left the map, mod or something behind.
now all that work he did went to waist.
i'd rather see my mods an maps in someone elses hands, rather than watch them rot.
none the less he did contribute afew things, an hes still a good insperation.

if we all wanted main mans server back bad enough,
im sure between all the mappers an modders, a new version could be remade in no time.
not sayin to steal his idea, but to create our own.

As i know, the MMCity source code is available for everyone. That was MainMan's leaving present or something?

Still, he should have let someone host in 24/7 I feel, plenty of people offered.

no sence letting all that work go to waiste.

No one will ever beat MMCity, it was the best DX mod there ever was.
