For Latest Updater Crashes

[shinraiden]

It\'s not just the updater, it also moves in the other DLL\'s and stuff that now \'requires\' the debug version DLL like I mentioned a couple posts above.

The result is it breaks all the applications, including the updater.

There\'s two options at that stage, either hosed users reinstall and reupdate (backup your .cfg files!) or the devs make a nasty manual patch to clean the PS root dir.

I\'m not sure all the dlls used by the new updater seem to be in the updatertemp folder... hopefully.... that way just posting the correct build will overwrite the files in that folder and everything will work smoothly.  If that\'s not the way the updater update works it probably should be.

I think someone pulled the plug on the automatic updating of the updater (does that make sense) when the relized they had a problem on their hands. Like i said above i got an update shorly after xmltiny.dll was released. Then right after that the updater stopped updating itself.

can it be they stopped the updater from updating?
or is it just my computer who isnt my best friend and tries to trick me.

I get this message, but because i know absolutely nothing of computers, i have no idea what to do

fatal error in glwin32.dll
csGraphics2DOpenGl:: Open(QI)--system passed does
not support iWin32Assistent.


does that make sense?

I could tell you that uninstalling and reinstalling would get you the same error everyone else is getting however I think your bet bet is to wait untill the devs post what to do to get the update.

Ok, i unistalled and reinstalled the game. Now: the server is Fragnetic (or so) and it is not the server i had before (Laanx) i didn\'t see nor the \"local host\" option on server options. When i write my e-mail i cannot write the \"at\" symbol (@) and i cannot play with the old version because a window said me that this is a version not supprotated.
I must quite wait the new updater to install the game and start again to play.
A question: my old character in case of new installation will be lost?

What was the name of the file you reinstalled with?

*Edit:

The reason I ask is that i recived the same kinds of problems when I accidently reinstalled from a MB install one time.

Your charactor is linked with your email and saved on the server you don;t need to worry about it.

I got that same exact message when i replaced the \"new\" glwin32.dll with the old one.  It is likely that the problem is as shinraiden and Socrates have described we got a debug release instead of the proper release. So we wait for talad to build the proper one.

this is moving faster then i expected, the above is in response to the iWin32Assisstant error message. So the dll isn\'t exposing some interface that the exe is expecting.

When i unistalled PS i took the files i downloaded the first time from PS site to reinstall it. By the way the filename is: PlaneShift_CBV0.3.005

[Socrates Demise]

to pass the time while we wait for the updater to be fixed I would suggest downloading the latest download from here

[blubasso]

Thank you very much Socrates, yes, my version (005) was really old but it was all i had... i\'m downloading your one now. See u on PS (and with a brand new updater) :-D

Great once you have it installed you will only have the same problem everyone else is having.

Oh really?? :-O
hahahahhahahahaha
of course i will have it!! :-D
But the solution is quite easy: i will not update anything until i will see in this forum a post with in \"Updater bug fix. Done!\"

ciao

>Hello

First when I updated I had that error message :
fatal error in glwin32.dll
csGraphics2DOpenGl:: Open(QI)--system passed does
not support iWin32Assistant.

Then I unziped the updater zip (found in temp folder) in PS main.
Now it opens a PS dos windows that says :
WARNING! Suspicious : object with tag \'iWin32Assistant\' does not implement interface \'iWin32Assistant\' !

And it opens the same error message than before (see upthere)

So I download last version of PS and I will reinstall and wait a couple of days for new updater.......

Whatever I want to thank all the dev team for the great job they are doing.... (please hang the guy who build the last updater ;p)

[blubasso]

OMG!!
I downloaded the last version of PS and i tryed to connect me without touch the updater. It\'s all right but when i click on start button a malicious window appeared and it said me: \" You are not running the correct version of PS for this server\". The server changed from Laanx to Fragnetics. I have nor the local host in the server options.
I\'d like to have old laanx server...
hey: i use windovw XP...maybe that server is for MAC or Linux version? It\'s only an ipothetic idea...
