Webhosting
- At least 10mb of storage.
- PHP newer than 4.3 (PHP website)
- MySQL at least from version 4.1.16 to version 5.0.16 (see note below) (MySQL website)
Note (MySQL)
Some versions of MySQL in the above range DO have troubles with a particular query, if your particular MySQL has that bug, Alliance and Player Statistics will not be updated correctly with the GalaxyTool Plugin. We are working on notifications of this problem to fix the installation script and check MySql versions that do not work with GalaxyTool.
Free Hosting Services
There are several free hosting companies which will support an installation but they have a lot of advertising, and are not recommended. For an overview of webspace hosters offering both PHP and MySQL services and that were tested by GalaxyTool users please taka a look at hosting providers and the Galaxytool.
Official hosting offer by eX0du5
If you are not familiar with hosting services, you can use eX0du5's free hosting at www.galaxytool-hosting.eu. You will not need to update the galaxytool there, it will be done automatically for you. Anyway space is limited, so registrations will not always be open.
Supported Browsers
Requirements for getting in the web interface
Any modern browser that allows cookies should work. Tested browsers:
- Firefox (Best choice because of the [[Toolbar|GalaxyPlugin], which allows fast updates of all the data in your galaxytool)
- Internet Explorer (display only)
- Opera (display only)
Requirements for updating the data in the GalaxyTool
Through the browser extension for FireFox (strongly recommended)
Through manual copy/paste from Ogame (not recommended)
- Firefox
- Internet Explorer
- Epiphany
Will not work with the following:
- Opera (does not copy tooltips with copy&paste)
- Konqueror (does not copy galaxy view in a format that galaxytool is able to parse.)
Javatool
With the help of the Javatool you can copy a whole galaxy within 30 minutes. If you want to use the Javatool, you need at least a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.4.2 on your PC to run the program.
People
You will need a lot of time, or an active alliance which supports you filling in the database.
