The Forgotten [WAR] Server Project
The objective of this project is to provide the community with a current, stable, feature-rich and easily configurable war server. This project is the spiritual successor to the Simple War OT project (Maintained 8.4 through 8.6).

You can find the most current Data Pack release here. (updated 17/12/15).
You can find the Advertisement thread for the live preview here.

Please use the Data Pack release thread to report any bugs you experience and the advertisement thread to discuss anything pertaining directly to the live game server.

The purpose of this thread is to discuss features, configurations, maps, exhausts, potions & spell formulas, stairhopping etc. that should be altered or included in future releases.
This is NOT a support thread. Please direct all support related queries to the data pack release thread linked above.

Information:
Code: 
Server Version: TFS 1.2
Client Version: 10.77+ (Live game server is 10.90)
Map Version: 10.76
Map: Thais, Venore, Carlin, Edron & Rookgaard (all in real tibia positions) + the original Simple War OT default map
Systems: (All systems noted are fully configurable from war_config.lua - see spoiler in next post for example)
Code: 
- Automatic map rotation
- Frag rewards
- Player starting skills by vocation (can toggle to make this minimum skills or not)
- Player starting equipment by vocation
- Player starting level (can toggle to make this minimum level or not)
- Maximum level
- onLook frag & death counts
- Display character statistics and information on login
- Bonus frag reward & EXP reward by storage ID (ideal for AAC shop systems)
Live Game Server:
Thanks to @Don Daniello and spigu.net we have a live game server. Although the primary purpose of the live server is simply for the enjoyment of the community, it will also be used as a production testing environment.
An advertisement thread will be created shortly and linked at the top of this post, but for now you can find the game server at DOMINADO.ORG.
The website is currently using Znote AAC with the widnet theme converted by @Znote and an awful banner created by me. If design is your thing and you want to help out...please start with a banner!
I have not bothered putting this on any server list yet, so don't expect to see players online. I'll sort all that out once I've fixed all the known issues and released the latest update.

To do List:
- Capture the flag game mode.
I am thinking you would choose which game-mode you want the server to start with in war_config.lua e.g. gameMode = DM/CTF
@Printer - did you create a CTF event before? Or was that somebody else?

- Code refactor
I am NOT a good LUA scripter. That much is clear. Function over form #yolo
@Codex NG my scripting will make you want to stab your eyes out..but it works. I'd love it if somebody would refactor my code.

Credit due to Mark Samman & all contributers to the Forgotten Server project. @Shawak for inspiring the configuration style (war_config.lua). @Ninja & @Printer for two scripts that I have adapted for the server. @Printer (again) for the real map parts I imported from his project.

Just a reminder, this thread is to discuss features, configurations, maps, exhausts, potion healing amounts, stairhopping etc. that should be altered or included in future releases. Also please feel free to let me know what you think of the project =]

Yesterday I released an updated version of the data pack which addressed all known issues - the main datapack release thread has been updated with new information and links.
Today I've updated the live game server to work with the 10.90 client. Hopefully we won't experience any issues with it.

Unfortunately it would seem that not many people are interested in war servers these days though. I might consider releasing it as a distribution instead of a data pack. Not sure yet though.

I've never actually looked into OTClient at all myself, but from what I've read it is a bit behind the tibia client unfortunately.

I need to give some more thought to the target audience of this project though because it is clearly not appealing to the majority of OTLands community. I may pivot development or create a sister project to try and bring a server to the table that the community will find more appealing.
 
IMHO I would check out the project but I haven't spoiled my computer with a Tibia Client installation for quite some time. If there was a link to download&run OTClient, I'm sure more people would check it out. I've used OTClient before and probably still have it somewhere but in a version that's long old.
 
I just took a look at the OTClient GitHub project - unfortunately it only supports up to 10.31 at the moment. I've seen a resurgence of interest in it lately, so that could easily change in the coming months.
I hear what you're saying though and I think that is more the direction I need to head.

Right now I think the target audience is CIP's players, and if they don't have to switch clients - they're more likely to give it a go (at least in my mind). What I will do for now though is link the client and IP changer on the dominado.org website - even though anybody visiting probably already has what they need.
 
No, but when i find time. I will do it, since i dont like how the old ones is coded.
 
Thanks Eldin =]
@Printer ahh well if you could keep this project in mind when you write it, that would be amazing! I think you should be writing it primarily as an in-server event kind of thing (as I think that will appeal to the greatest audience). If I were to implement a variant on it to this server it would be in the form of an entire game mode though.
 
I'm preparing a secondary configuration set for "noob" war servers.
I'd be interested to hear what people think the levels should be?

I am thinking level range of 20-30, but not sure what people would want. Do you want to be shooting SD's and summoning FE's etc on a noob war server?

Code: 
Start level: ?
Maximum level: ?

Mage magic level: ?
Paladin magic level: ?
Knights magic level: ?

Paladin distance: ?
Knight club/axe/sword: ?
 
Start level: 50
Maximum level: 70

Mage magic level: 40
Paladin magic level: 10
Knights magic level: ?

Paladin distance: 90
Knight club/axe/sword: 80
