Testing server

Recommended Posts

Guest sl0w
I am such a ditz! :D

I have space on my ISP, so I'm now using that.

 

for the full installer: http://users.on.net/~gingerman/Setup_EL_pre102.exe (21Mb) This is current and up-to-date as of 2005-07-23

 

if you already have that, zeplins' package, or you got the update-test2 package yourself, then you only need the latest maps_n_such and executable. go to http://ttlanhil.tripod.com/EL/client_102.htm (maps and exec will only be 360Kb... far faster to get)

I tried the installer and it executed a DOS windows then closed immediately.

That's a console window, which is usually caused by someone having console window enabled in linking (or whatever in VC++).

while the copy I have on my computer works fine, the version that I uploaded seems to be broken. hence the dos windows. I'm currently working through making a new one (the old one works fine, but I may as well update to the latest stuff anyway) and will upload that when done. Till then, don't download it

 

update:

okay, I figured out the problem. the stupid FTP client was sending it in ascii-mode :P (if you don't follow this, it's fine, just ignore it)

 

anyway, it's fixed, and people are able to use it (yes, it's tested now)

http://users.on.net/~gingerman/Setup_EL_pre102.exe

 

the other stuff on tripod is still working fine too

ok, when I try to install the client I get an sdl.dll cannot be found :(

 

Could someone please explain what we're supposed to download and where and why, because I simply cannot get it to work :(

sdl.dll is in my package, not sure about zeplins but I'd figure it'd be there too

 

same problem over here cannot find MSVCP71.dil

 

:-(

if you're missing msvcp71.dll then go here: http://ttlanhil.tripod.com/EL/msvcp71.htm

if you're missing msvcr71.dll then go here: http://ttlanhil.tripod.com/EL/msvcr71.htm

 

if you don't have the error then don't get the files, though

:) Thank you, thank you, thank you.

short version of getting up and running:

 

this is supposing that you agree to the licensing, have enough space on your computer to install, and wish to use my installation

 

download and install this file: http://users.on.net/~gingerman/Setup_EL_pre102.exe

you should then have a working but slightly out of date install for EL test server. try running it (there's a link in the start menu or on your desktop by default)

 

if you're missing msvcp71.dll then go here: http://ttlanhil.tripod.com/EL/msvcp71.htm

if you're missing msvcr71.dll then go here: http://ttlanhil.tripod.com/EL/msvcr71.htm

 

update: it is quite possible that your browser will try to save the file as msvcp71.htm or msvcp71.dll.htm. It is, however, the right file and you simply need to tell your web browser to use the name as it is on the page

 

if you wish to update to the latest version, go here: http://ttlanhil.tripod.com/EL/client_102.htm You already have the updated maps, you only need to get the updated client

 

if you have other errors about files not found or whatever, record the name of the file exactly, and let me know.

if the client runs, but crashes or locks up or whatever, then open error_log.txt in your EL directory and go to the end. anything after the last "log started at" message may be relevant, but it's highly likely it will only be the last couple of messages.

if you don't understand what the problem is from these messages, then again contact me

 

I'm often in both servers, so you can contact me there as well. some of the other mods on test server may be willing to help out if I'm not about

 

you will need to make a new character unless you have had one on the other test server, and there's currently a known bug where you will need to quit and log in again after creating your character.

 

note: this will not copy your options from the main server. if you have had to set up your web browser or anything else, you will need to do it again with the el.ini in the new directory

 

 

msvcp71.dll  just lets us save msvcp71.htm rather than the .dll    , needs fixing.

183369[/snapback]

this is a problem either with the computer thinking it knows better than me, or with tripods' web server being set up wrong. the files should still work fine if you tell your browser to use the name as posted though

Test Server Abuse: Vermor continuly made me PK untill he got all my arrmor, all my glowys, and all my capes...gave back my iron of fire and kept my s2e of ice, tit axe, all my capes (which includes al lthe capes except the grey cape), and a bunch of other things. Vermor is scaring the testers 0.0...

 

We should attack now :axeman_rune: :battleaxe_rune: :battleaxe:

Bug: Add Tele. to Range to your quickbar.

Click somewhere to walk, then cast the spell using the quickbar. After a short delay (no longer than 1.5 secs), you will automatically TP to that previously selected walk location (which you shouldnt, you should walk).

 

[EDIT]

Eeeek, this is worse if you map walk. After a similar delay (after casting), you TP around 6 walks in front of you (isnt that the server limit sent when walking?).

 

 

Pretty buggy if you ask me...

That's caused by the pathfinder handling the MOVE_TO commands. Try re-arranging that code so it'll only be called affected when using the click on map or click in the gamewin... The magic wand icon will make sure that it'll send the correct MOVE_TO coords.

Tested client today for a few hours. Character movement is smoother than version 1.0.1. Drag and drop storage is ok, will take some getting used to. Graphics look a little better.....Now for the stuff I dont like....

 

1. The TC client style experience popups above character r annoying.

2. The move to bullseye should be an option.

3. Game crashed 4 times in 90 minutes.

4. Rain in VOTD is too dense.

 

I aint really complaining here, just sharing my thoughts to help team.

 

EL RULES,

This is HyperIdle. Right-click, save as, then specify msvcp71.dll, THEN, click the drop down box and select all files, insteadof HTM. ^.^

1.  The TC client style experience popups above character r annoying.

it's not TC, TC got most of their stuff from here. and you can turn it off in el.ini or probably the config window, if you dislike it

2.  The move to bullseye should be an option.

could you expand on this a bit, for those who don't follow?

3.  Game crashed 4 times in 90 minutes.

hence bugtesting time ;)

if it's doing something that crashes your game each time, or there's something at the end of you error_log.txt that can explain it, please let us know (in the bugs thread) so we can get it fixed ASAP

4.  Rain in VOTD is too dense.

183617[/snapback]

rain on testing server is far heavier than it will normally be on main server. and it's not just in votd

it's often going up to cyclonic rains in EL, yes (but no wind. hmm. oh well), but that should be pretty rare on main server once using this code

The bullseye comment: the green move to symbol that pops every time u click to move to a different location. I wish i could turn it off, but if not its not that big of a deal since many games feature this.

 

Hope this helps.

I have the same exact error on mine and my wifes' computer. I'm running old PIII 700, 32 MB NVIDIA TnT2 VId, with 256 MB of ram, almost everything turned off.

 

My wife has a 3 GHz, AMD Athlon XP, with 256 MB NVIDIA GEFORCE graphics card. MX5600. SHe has the same issues, but I have a few more listed on mine, as my card doesn't handle the newer graphics of the new client very well.
