Re: Beta3 update info
 

I'm just wondering where Yacko, Wacko and Dot are..... I kept on looking for them to come and avenge Hacko!

See, Hacko's sort of like Chico Marx. Lesser known but still part of the group.

I raise a tribute, my friends, to "Hacko" the forth of the Warner brothers and sister!

Re: Beta3 update info
 

Allright, the stupid Dutchman has arrived again!!
I've a problem, maybe I'm just stupid, blond Dutch or whatever you wanna call it.
DL'd the beta, de-installed my old WW version(s) and started the installation program, works like a charm ;)
Now here's the thing, launched WW and connected to the test server, and suddenly WW starts to mown it needs to download pk3 files (one is pakmaps01b2.pk3).
Probably it's me (as usual) making a mistake, but beats me what I'm doing wrong here.
Anyone got the solution to my stupidness?

Re: Beta3 update info
 

Hi El-Paolo,
Are you joining my server ?
if so.. errrr sorry then its my mistake :(
I'm, not at home at the moment, so I can't check.
However, if you are trying to join my server, if you turn off
"Auto-download", you should be able to join :)

I'll be home later tonight (GMT)

Hewster.

BTW, I'm having a new experiance at the moment..........
I'm using a MAC to write this !!!!!!! lol (my first time lol)

Re: Beta3 update info
 

The problem he's describing actually happens on the Lone Wolf server. Hewster's server stopped appearing on my Interenet list last night. I actually saw it happen because I was going in and out of the game trying to get my wife's computer to work. As soon as 4 players got in the game the server dropped off the internet list. Luckily I had it on my favorites list. It seems to be back on the main list again for me. It is called "Hewsters 1.5Beta3 test server"

If it is not on your list, Add it manually to your favorites using the IP address: 81.128.144.242:27969

Hope this helps....

I think Lone wolf says it is 1.5b3 when it is really 1.4. I'll see if I can figure out who the host of it really is and send them an email.

Re: Beta3 update info
 

Ok, problem solved.
The Lone Wolf isn't running the beta nad Hew's server wasn't in the list.
Thanks Queeg

Re: Beta3 update info
 

think i found the problem, I also had 'missing files' which were located in the 1.52 backup directory I made (didn't install w/ new version) I've moved them into the new WW directory and...

am now getting a game mismatch error code WildWest_1500/WildWest_1503 will keep plugging at error reasons.

Update, when I start my own server its saying version 1.43 so maybe there's cross coding or something. And I know it's not the newer version for the colored text test I have is still the default RtCW colors.

Another update, it seems I may have fired up the wrong version. I have installed the right version now, and now when I try to join the server I get an even longer list of missing files (will troll threw older versions for them, but the only pk3's in the new WW folder are:
ww_bin01b3.pk3
ww_pak00b3.pk3
missing and being looked for on the 1.53beta server are in attached image. Will be offline til monday (partial time online) and will check back on forums to see what's happening.

Re: Beta3 update info
 

Hi Guys.. I'm back home now :)

Ok, I forgot to tell Danny (LoneWolf) to remove all his old pk3's,
so he has installed beta3 on-top of beta2, and so we have these
problems.

I've mailed him, and hopefully he will have LoneWolf running
tomorrow.

The Windows installer should find any old files and insist that
you uninstall any previous versions before beta3 will install,
so all Windows users can feel confident that if beta3 installed
without any problems, then they don't have anything to worry
about, and indeed should be able to join my server.

Re: Beta3 update info
 

And in case you didn't catch that implication, that means lone wolf is running on Linux....

And yes, grumble grumble grumble, the windows part of that works really well forcing a true uninstall...
