Servers

This article is for reference purpose

The features described in this article are already implemented in the game. The article should describe how a certain aspect of the game currently works. You may of course edit this article to improve the description of the circumstances. Your opinions or improvement suggestions about the described aspects themself are of course appreciated, too. But please put these on the discussion page of this article to keep facts and fiction separated.

When you set up your own TMW server and want it to be open for public playing feel free to add it here. To create your own server read Setting up a server. All servers/projects on this page work with the official client. Servers/Projects listed on forks are incompatible with the official TMW client, though they are based on it.

The Mana World project main servers

These servers typically run on either Evol2 or TMWA protocol. You can connect to them with the official client from the download page.

Security Warning: Do not use the same username and password on two different servers. The server admins can read all of them in clear text and nothing stops them from trying them on other servers. It happened a lot in the past that users of the official server got "hacked" because they ignored this important precaution.
