"server dropped us for unknown reason" error possible fix
« on: January 18, 2003, 04:30:42 pm »
1. put compatability mode on 98/me
2. enable full screen and 32bit color by editing the psclient.cfg file

it should look like this...

; Screen depth (currently supports 8, 15, 16, and 32 bits, NO 24 bits!)
Video.ScreenDepth = 32
; Use full-screen mode if available
Video.FullScreen = yes

probably worked because my windows is in 32bit color, if yours is different change it to that depth...anyway, hope this helps/isnt a repost

I think they have a new server but haven\'t given out the new IP.

Well.... I tried everything you all have stated above and I still get the Server Dropped Us. As I said just 2 days  ago I was able to get on without changing anything so I dunno...(Will wait wait for new IP)

I didnt see where to put compatability mode on 98/me ...?

It means the server doesn\'t exist anymore and is now being used as a doorstop in crazzykid\'s closet.
