Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Updating on Vista
« on: October 08, 2008, 10:15:40 pm »
For all you Vista users, If youre having problems with the Updater let me give you a short and sweet solution.
First off, Open up "updaterinfo.xml" in the Planeshift folder and change <config active="false"> TO <config active="true"> and Save!
Secondly, go to http://connect.creativelabs.com/developer/Wiki/OpenAL%20Installer%20for%20Windows.aspx and download the OpenAL32.dll Installer.
Thirdly, Run the Installer for OpenAL32.dll (Assuming youre on Vista and dont have this driver).
Last but not least, Remove "psupdater.exe" from the Planeshift folder, and get the patched Updater from http://www.psmirror.org/psupdaterwin32.zip
Unzip this Patched Updater in your Planeshift Folder.
Rrun the "psupdater.exe" and it SHOULD work now!
I realize these solutions are on the forums in fragments, but I wanted to give a compiled, shortened answer for the suffering Vista users like myself!
Over n Out
