Eech 160w13 + Cis Version Is Out

[Moje]

Hi, a new test-version of eech is out. Get it at the DevZone:

http://eech.bollocks.net.nz/

Western as well as Russian version available (different fonts)

Read the included readme.html. I has info of new features and fixes (?) + a brief description on how to get it going, a few new files has to be in the right folders.

This is a great release guys one thing i would like to know is when im flying everything but the comanche if i land in a field it blows up i bring it in nice and smooth 2 to 3 ft/sec and soon as the rails or tires touchdown boom blows up.

 

T am very impressed with this release and having lots of fun with it.

I just tested it with an Apache Longbow in The Opium war.

Could put it down in any field w/o trouble.

Could it be something local in your set-up (but I'm not aware of any know prob's)

I've putthe question out in the eechdev mail-list to see if anyone else got this

Had a crash after a client quit. this is the messge i recieved when it CTD'd

What settings for cgs and cvc are you using. To me this looks like you have the cgs=1 and cvc=0. This means you rely on crappy DirectPlay7 code to remove crashed and quitted clients. Jabberwock changes applies to Razorworks own MP-code.

Set cgs=0 and cvc=1, this should save the host

And if I'm wrong, we still haven't saved the host from crashing :(

[Guest MrMudd]

cgs=1 # force the comms to use DirectPlay guaranteed send instead of its own (def=0).

 

cvc=1 # validate connection, removes dead player husks when client crashes

 

 

 

These are my settings. i am also running this {WUT}

 

wut=1_6_13H.txt

 

I will give your recommended settings a try

I'm very sorry to post this, but...

we goofed eech160w13,,,,

a late add-on aimed to filter the campaign screen so only MP-games with the correct exe-version was displayed (I think it was the goal) makes some PC's to CTD when entering the campaign screen and only one save-point can be reloaded.

I've asked the coder to remove the session filter, so we can build a new exe
