Mabinogi Hotkey Server

For when mabiui.nexon.net is down.

These instructions are written for Windows 10. If you're not running Windows 10, I feel bad for you.

These instructions and this software come with no guarantee or support. Use at your own risk.

Setup

1. In the Cortana menu, search cmd
2. Right-click Command Prompt and Run as administrator
3. Type this in the console: echo 127.0.0.1 mabiui.nexon.net >> C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
4. Install the latest Python 3 release from here
5. Double-click hotkey-server.py
6. A console window should appear that says Started local hotkey server... if one does not you screwed something up.

The server must be running before you enter a game server in Mabinogi every time.

Tear down

When mabiui.nexon.net is back up you need to remove the entry from your hosts file that we did.

1. In the Cortana menu, search notepad
2. Right-click Notepad and Run as administrator
3. Go to File -> Open and in the File name field at the bottom of the window, paste the path C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
4. The last line of your file will say 127.0.0.1 mabiui.nexon.net
5. Delete that line only
6. File -> Save

You should be able to connect to the official server again.
