Re: Multiplayer Setup Instructions
This is what I have in my config file.  Can't guarantee that it's correct but it's what I've been using.

You can try it without PXO checked to eliminate that.

Re: Multiplayer Setup Instructions
ok i found a solution , dont know if its acceptable though so please some one tell me,

 i changed my fs-open 3.6.9 to the one that i run in FS , it has the same version number but not the same date, this works i can run the game when logged in , no crashes,

 i also tried the btrl 3.6.9 this crashed and burned as well ,

what is the difference between this one (3.6.9 2007-11-29 and this one 3.6.9 2008-2-21)
the first one is in my fs folder and works with tbp on multi and the second is the one that tbp3.4b installs and doesnt work for me .......

 do i post this on mantis?


thanks in advance

 ;) :D ;) :D ;) :D

Re: Multiplayer Setup Instructions
If the BtRL build is crashing but not 3.6.9 Official then I'll want to know more about it as I barely touched the multiplayer code. Add it to Mantis and assign it to me. I'll want to know exactly which mission is crashing and when and where so I can reproduce it.

Re: Multiplayer Setup Instructions
ok two quick things ,

having a problem with mantis , it doesnt send me a password ............

also i should make it a bit clearer, i do not hae a problem playing btrl in single player or multi it works fine,
 i just read earlier some where here that the btrl 3.6.9 and the tbp3.4b 3.6.9 were the same and i just tried to use the btrl one to launch tbp with but it reproduced the same effect..........


i launch;
 try to play a multiplayer online  "alone"   and then crash if i choose a mission and accept, i get the hacked tables etc , ur playing alone etc......... then crash if i try to continue


this is the debug msg i get......................



Assert:strlen(msg_extra) <(CHATBOX_STRING_LEN-2)

File:D:\C++\Freespace\fs2_open 3.6.9\code\MissionUI\Chatbox.cpp

Line:1053




my system is this...................

xp professional  sp2
french

system version 5.1.2600

running on an acer 9410 laptop,

Re: Multiplayer Setup Instructions
But why set these things up yourself when you can just download everything you need later. Be lazy. You know it makes sense.

Re: Multiplayer Setup Instructions
Forgive my ignorance, but if I've added stuff to tables, will this screw up multiplayer?  (really the only thing that's been added is the "Light Burst" under weapons, and the brittlestar under additional shps, though that's Inferno Build).
Deuternomy 22:11 explained:

Well there are many different speculations going on about this law about not mixing fibers and at least one explanation claims that it was a symbolic gesture designed to keep a pure sense of culture, people, and religion.  Seperation of crop  in the vinyard, mentioned in Dt. 22:9 and 22:10 seem to reaffirm this idea, though there may be other reasons as well.

And now, an excerpt from the Prayer of Mordecai, the Book of Esther Chapter C (New American Bible Official Catholic version).

Est C:5  You know all things.  You know, O Lord, that it was not out of insolence or pride or desire for fame that I acted thus in not bowing down to the proud Haman.  6  Gladly would I have kissed the soles of his feet for the salvation of Israel.  7  But I acted as I did so as not to place the honor of man above that of God.  I will not bow down to anyone but you, my Lord.  It is not out of pride that I am acting thus.

Back that stuff up.  You will be getting a new weapon and ship tables.

Re: Multiplayer Setup Instructions
kind of odd, but pasting Slade's file over the old one didn't do jack.  Still have issues saying no connection.  I know I screwed something up.

Re: Multiplayer Setup Instructions
turned off norton.

My bad about DL 3.4b  I misinterpreted it as having to DL the whole 3.4b installer.  Need to learn to correctly interpret what I read.  Figures. :doubt:

Yeah. I'm not seeing anything either. Running wireshark now. Lets see if the packets are actually reaching me on another port or something stupid.

EDIT: Nevermind. Fubar's up.
