Windows users can do the same fix in the registry entry of wom: HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/JavaSoft/Prefs/minecraft.
The string titles are self explanatory. Just don't touch anything outside the aforementioned folder.
Also for those who have dynamic IP's or cant connect via WoM to fCraft Classic and get the invalid name or whatever and have to re-find the name in the WoM server list, i recommend:
Making a .reg file from a exported registry of the mppass, set to "" or null so to speak. This should make WoM re-fetch the mppass on load. I can make an executable that you place in the same directory of your WoM program, and run the exe instead - Which will wipe the mppass on every load. It doesnt take very long to load the mppass (not even with my slow interent) and is MUCH faster then loading the WoM server list, as i know people with slow internet connections take very long to run a search query (and load the list itself).
Also I'd recommend combining the above with the Minecraft jsp urls that can be used in your bookmarks list.
http://www.minecraft.net/play.jsp?server=<IP>&port=<port>
replace <IP> and <port> with the corresponding server IP and port that the server is located on.
You can find the IP and PORT via the method of viewing the source from teh very top post, or the post that Bobkare made that has the javascript bookmark idea.
Code:
prompt("Current server IP and PORT:",'mc:\/\/' + document.getElementsByName("server")[0].value + '\/' + document.getElementsByName("port")[0].value);
EDIT (More cleaned up):
prompt("Current server IP and PORT:", document.getElementsByName("server")[0].value + ' ' + document.getElementsByName("port")[0].value);
In this case, fCraft Classic IP and PORT are:
Code:
<param name="server" value="46.163.67.40">
<param name="port" value="33600">
So the jsp url would be:
http://www.minecraft.net/play.jsp?serve ... port=33600Of course this is nicer for the static IP servers, but if you have a server that is located on a ISP with dynamic IP then this would be useless. Unless of course they have the server stick to one port like the fCraft classic software does. If you run a server that doesnt have that feature, then id recommend using a program called no-ip (
http://www.no-ip.com/) to automatically set your IP to the hostname, which instead of the <param name="server" value="46.163.67.40"> it wouldnt be a IP but a hostname/url type style IP like "classicserver.no-ip.org".
most of this stuff might be useless to others but i hope i can help. Also the jsp URL doesnt work unless you dont ever have to reload your servers in WoM using the server list.
