see all these LOM 3 servers, are they the same as the official mir 3? I joined RND pro last night because it seemed the easiest to install, but it reminds me so much of myth of soma. Now don't get me wrong, from what I have played so far I have enjoyed but it just didn't seem very mir like lol. Anyone know anything about the real mir 3? :)

Bascially you have a few choices to make as follows:

Type of Server
Judgement of Blood (JOB) - this is the large style maps, older interface and not as many magics, no daily quests (though some may have programmed around this), ingame email and so forth.

Prelude to War / 3G - This is more in line with the Offical Servers and features pretty much everything you expect.

Exp of Server
This ranges from 2/3x Server to some wild numbers such as 60, 62 & 1000x Exp, if you want a long term server then of course go for the lower end of the scale, if you fancy playing killing a mob and going up 10 levels - then the higher ones will attract you.

Do No expect to see the Latest Magics, All the quests working and so forth just yet, this is after all Private Servers not Offical !!

i am just about to read through all the posts for olymp now.


I cant get into their forums, do you have to download this with that bit torrent thing? If so i have no hope what so ever of trying it..

It is upto the server ownwer how they supply the client and Olypia choose to use BitTorrent I beleive to save on bandwidth. I dont even know what your question is - you want to play on a Free Mir3 server but not sure which??

Few steps to this:

1. Choose a Server
2. Go to Web site/Forum and find out how and what client to get.
3. Play the server..

this section wldnt b so dead if instead of people always asking for help, they found out themselves like alot of us and then helped others who really need it.

yes u need bittorrent to download the olymp client, but ther are plenty of other servers to try which just use the official client.

why would lower rate be more long term? it depends on the host. my server has 100+ at peek times.

When I was reffering to Long Term, I was going from a Player side not how long the server would be up for - just in case thats what you thought I meant.

My thoughts are bascially if say a server is 4x to take a good example, means a player can rise gradually up the ranks and the equipment is still within the stats (max 255 remember) and the host can keep adding more stuff to balance around the player levels. Once this changes to 1000x (again another example) - then you no longer are playing Mir as it was intended to be but instead turn it into something like Command & Conquer type game where its all about PvP and one hit killing a boss mob type thing...

I know this becase I have been messing with Servers way to long now, played all the high rate ones, soon got bored - yes it attracts high numbers in the beginning but over time it soon dies down - been proven way to many times.

On Version 3.38/3.38 the max level is 255, the max stats you can have is also 255 or is what I am seeing in my little box lying to me? Once stats reach 255, it LOOPS around back to 0.

Now I do speak to the chinese thanks and 3.5x got rid of the 255 stats much like the mir2 counterpart and now the max is 65535 - so yes with the latest files you wont hit any problems..
