Hello,
I am trying to figure out how to change the MOTD. Is there some kind of control panel with an interface that I can use to customize some settings?
I ahev tried changing the MOTD in both the registry and in the conf file, but it does not change in game. It just says, "Hello World" no matter how I edit it. Thank you for help.

It looks like maybe I need to hex edit those...
What about changing this:

http://www.PvPGN.orgI tried editing the 'news.txt' file in PvPGN confs, but the in-game message stays the same...
EDIT: Ok, the issue was that I needed to set all services to start manually so that the PvPGN service stops when I shut down the server. That way all confs are reloaded at server start.
I'm off to learn a bit about hex editing to change the initial in-game greeting...
Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
p.s. What about simply changing the date and time that appears in the lobby screen? How can I do that?
