thats poop now wut you gonna do and can some one host a game so i can see if it works -ta

Paranoia2MB · October 2004

We need a firewall/router less host
and
We need somebody to host a voice chat server like roger wilco for an example.

And plan out ahead of time what to be and what skills to choose.

Sub_zer0 · October 2004

right i only have team speak and i like psi so ill be psi if thats ok
and sorry ive got a fire wall i could turn it off but it dont matter cso i cant host any way so team speak ok?

#Create a new folder inside the shock2 one called res.
#Move all the files ending in .crf to the newly created folder.
#Open up install.cfg from the shock2 folder using notepad.
#Alter the resname_base line to include the new folder. For example resname_base c:\games\shock2\+d:\shock2 would become resname_base c:\games\shock2\res+d:\shock2
#Save the file!
#Unzip the rebirth zip file to the a folder called mesh inside the Shock 2 folder. (this step is for Rebirth only)

Sub_zer0 · October 2004

Paranoia2MB · October 2004

Damn,

I usually like playing as Psi, but lets see what other skills you choose. There are a couple of skills that are just worthless in SS2.

Sub_zer0 · October 2004

Sub_zer0 · October 2004

sheena_yanai · October 2004

Sub_zer0 · October 2004

Yeh, Im quite experienced in gettign SS2 to run, it just randomly crashes on loading screens.

Sub_zer0 · October 2004

just crashes to desktop just like that? - that is a bugger

Rellix · October 2004

No it does the error sound and sits there, so I hit enter to get thigns going and it shuts down.

Shame too, it worked on my old computer half of which is in this one.

Liku · October 2004

The Dark engine, which is what I believe SS2 uses, has hissy fits with Nvidia cards. And just newer computers in general. Quite sad for such a great game.

Sub_zer0 · October 2004

ah ha i might know wuts wrong when it does error dont hit enter press alt and tab and see wut msg is if its wut i thinck it is its easy to fix and has nothing to do with wut gfx card u got

Rellix · October 2004

Don't forget to salt the fries. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' />

And once I find my disc, I can probably figure out a way to DNAT the needed ports so I can host. Though I only have 128kbit upstream, so it might get slightly laggy.

I'd also recommend Ventrilo for a voice server. I don't have a mic (my wonderful boom mike headset snapped due to a friend screwing with it), but it's worked well in the past.

If nothing else, we can ask in the NS IRC channel. I *know* a few people have played MP in the past.

Sizer · October 2004

lol!

Paranoia2MB · October 2004

I know my friend can probably host whenever he gets on and I also know another guy who can host, but lives up in Canada.

I think you need to pay for teamspeak servers.

Talesin · October 2004

Oh, and apparently there's a patched executable for nVidia-drones, so the game won't reject them. Guess it just shows how well the game was initially coded. Or how crappy the cards are. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' />

In any case, mini-prod over. Head to <a href='http://www.sshock2.com' target='_blank'>http://www.sshock2.com</a> and the 'fixed' download is in the recent additions list at the top of the page. The 'Texture Memory Fix'. Apparently it only started causing problems after Detonator 5x.xx.... hmm. Right when they started cutting corners to try and grab back the speed king crown.
Too bad it failed and broke great old games.

<zorak> Muahahahahahahahahaha! </zorak>

Sub_zer0 · October 2004
