Website to see actual 3DXChat server status

[Torax]

Thank you Colin! Yes indeed you are fast! I added it on pages and later will work on the partner page. Thank you!

Here we go  https://www.3dxchatsharing.com/3dxchat-game-status

Thank you for your amazing tool Colin!

[ColinDude]

Today's additions:

• Added players online index in some graphs
• Added new measure about the current players online on front page

The players online index is based on the amount of players in the default rooms. The 100% mark is based on the highest player count of the last 4 weeks. The "players online" measure is based on the current hour of the current weekday, from the last 4 weeks.

Sneak preview of an incoming new feature:
 

 

[ColinDude]

The problem reporter is now live!

This new feature will only work properly if everyone who is experiencing disconnects, reports them. So please do so.

[ColinDude]

Quite a major update today:

• To prevent false positives and tiny hiccups, only mark Auth server, Game server (EU/US) and API as down if check fails twice in a row
• Added latency measures on front page
• Shifted order on front page (Latest build all the way down)

This means that actual outages are only reported if my checks fail twice in a row. Downside of this, this means that it could take up to two minutes before the outage is communicated to the Discord servers. But seeing the big flood of messages of past week...that's not very good either.

This is how the front page will look when the first check fails. It will turn to the RED OFFLINE message when the second one fails, and that's the point the Discord bot will broadcast:

 

[ColinDude]

Another nice update today!

• Outage times are now showed in local time zones by default
• You can view the outage in UTC timezone with a switch on top
• Statistics are now always showed in your own timezone
• Front page is now way more responsive (certain items hide when on small viewports)
   

[ColinDude]

Small update:

• Show amount of checks failed within last 15 minutes on front page
• Checks failed now also count as problems reported (red line in the charts)

 

[ColinDude]

Latest updates:

• Discord bot: !serverstatus / !ss command will now tell you about recent checks failed, and recent problems reported
• Profile editor enhancements: Unsupported tag warning, usage of tabs warning
• Added reported problem history in the outages chart

 

 

[ColinDude]

Today's update:

• Sparklines on front page!
  - Border color says something about the last measure. Green is good, yellow is higher than it should be, red is down
  - Sparkline is based on the latency of the past 2 hours
• Disabled forum visitor measure by default on front page
• Changed reported problem line width

[ColinDude]

Today's update:

• Added the ability to generate gradients in the profile/gift editor

Interesting, what were the symptoms?

[MeiLing]

Serial connection lost as ever....many players had it.

[ColinDude]

Today's changes:

• Fixed a bug with capturing amounts of visitors for the official 3dxchat forum
• Added a issue dialog when everything is running except the Europe server (which will include an advice to use the USA server)

[ColinDude]

Today I released a new test tool to help diagnose networking issues. Direct link: https://status.3dxchat.net/troubleshooting

It's a PowerShell script so if you don't trust it, feel free to take a look at the code yourself. 

Demo:

great job Colin

I released a new feature on my site, I call it the "Avatar Age Guesser".

I have a feeling this might become pretty controversial, so let me start off saying I created this using publicly available data only. Don't be afraid that 3DXChat is hacked or anything.

Why did I create it? It is because alts are a problem here. Some players distrust new avatars because of that. With my tool you can get an estimate of the creation date of an avatar using the "Report" link.

The calculation behind this is explained on my site, under the "More info" button in the header. Test it out

[Leeloo]

The question is: what is the use of this feature ? I mean if players distrust new avatars your AAG will not solve this "problem" unless it show the age of the account instead of the age of the avatar.

By exemple: If a real new player create his/her first avatar it will say (maybe) "avatar age 2 days" then the player will be distrusted by some others the same way i would be distrusted if i was creating a new avatar in my 9 years account as it would also say "avatar age 2 days" for me.

Maybe the usage could be easier when using the "buy-x-gold"-link.

Great site, logged in today ( 03/22/2022 @ 10:35am est ), find it very informative.

My problem is I am getting that dreadful red box for reconnect! Aggravating to say the least, this site showed 3DXCHAT was working fine, I clicked on the report button, hope something is done to correct this problem quickly. Kisses

[Geli82]

I can't even connect to 3dx, although the site says 3dx would running fine

[ColinDude]

Today I released an updated version of the Discord bot, using /slashcommands!

Before this works in your discord server, an administrator should re-authorize the bot once. See all details here

[Paulinus]

after massive problems today with frequently and long disconnection the servers status shows ALL GREEN now, the connection selftest shows ALL GREEN too and the result oft the power-shell selftest script shows ALL GREEN too.
Still I cannot see any rooms in the room list and no reaction in chat.
And still I get "connections refused" every minute.

Any advise?
