Technical Help: IN GAME bugs (after loading world) /
« on: February 21, 2005, 11:03:12 pm »
nonw of that works, and i tired to re dowlnoad it, but for some reason the site wont let me. it turns the dl into a web page with gibberish on it.

before i tried that though, i managed to get two dmp files,
PlaneShift_Version_Jan 19 2005_Addr00000000
PlaneShift_Version_Jan 19 2005_Addr7C00724A

it said to send it to a dev, but which one?

Technical Help: IN GAME bugs (after loading world) / -auto/--auto doesn't work
« on: February 21, 2005, 01:00:39 pm »
my updater hasn\'t worked since ive gotten it, and people are saying that -auto will fix it. but it doesn\'t for me. this is what happens in the prompt

Code: [Select]
Critical files ((critical)) not found (server only)

NOTIFY: psUpdaterEngine initalized.

Invalid switch - /S

Downloading registry

0%....25%....50%....75%....100%

Couldn\'t delete temporary repository zip (updatertemp/repos.zip)

Loaded registry

Server has another updater, going to fetch it..

Updating updater to another build

0%....25%....50%....75%....100%
using that, it crashes before i even get into the updater. before i could get into it, but all the letters are fadded(same with the game) and as soon as i hit something, it crashes.

I\'m really just brainstorming here; if it makes no sense just ignore me - everyone else does :P
no way i\'ll ignore you, your the only other person who cares that its an invalid switch. i know thats why my updater is messed, but i got no clue what to do.

its still not working, heres the error msg in the dos prompt

Code: [Select]
Critical files ((critical)) not found (server only)
NOTIFY: psUpdaterEngine initalized.
Invalid switch - /S
Downloading registry
0%....25%....50%....75%....100%

Updating updater to another build
0%....25%....50%....75%....100%

then after hitting the ok button, it flashes a bunch of times then says it\'ll run the new updater, which crashes as soon as it loads.

A space is what you get when you hit the Space bar.

im not that stupid.

heres exactly what i put
\"C:\\Program Files\\PlaneShift Crystal Blue\\updater.exe\" --auto
all i added was the --auto. and thats the target, not the start in. i didnt touch the start in.

As to how (forgive me if I assume Windows): In the Updater shortcut\'s Properties pane, find the field labeled \"Target\". It will contain something like \"C:\\Program Files\\blah\\blah\\Planeshift\\updater.exe\" in quotes. After the closing quote, add --auto so it looks like
\"C:\\Program Files\\blah\\blah\\Planeshift\\updater.exe\" --auto
and you shoud be shiny.


ive done that but it said it was invalid and keeps on crashing.

I looked in there and the answer is in one of the newer threads.  Snuffkin said:


Right click on \'planeshift updater\' shortcut in the start menu.
Click Properties.
In the \'Target\' box, add --auto to the end of what is already in there without disturbing the existing contents. It should look something like:

\"C:\\Program Files\\Planeshift Crystal Blue\\Updater.exe\" --auto

Note the space between what was already in there and the \'--auto\' you appended.
Now attempt to run the updater again.


--This worked for me, so hopefully it will for you
i just added that switch, and it said it was invalid? then it kept on crashing.

703MB of RAM
file system 32 bit
virtual mem. 32 bit

on my three comps, none of them can successfully run planeshift. on both my windows 98 comps, i get as far as the logging in part and then it says theres an error and makes a diagnostic report, which for some reason doesnt save.

on my xp, it open the dos screen, then closes it, and ends the program.

do any of you guys know whats going on?


and no, i didnt get it from a mirror site, i got it from planeshift.it
