Bug in the updater?
« on: July 13, 2006, 01:05:08 pm »
Hi, when I try to update the game, the updater says:
"Your updater version is newer than the server's. Server is out of date; stopping".

And, after that, if I try to connect to the game, it says:
"Something unexpected happened in PlaneShift: Crystal Blue
Details: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION at 00B8D424"


Any idea? I wanna play...

actually the problem has been solved... there is a file that you have to delete to resolve it. i can't remember the exact one but if you search it will turn up the result.

Hello, just to make it easier for you lazy people  ;D  I read Talads post above and downloaded the file.  I then extracted it to my PlaneShift Crystal Blue folder in Program files (where I installed PlaneShift too) and overwrote anything it asked me too everything is now up to date.  I didn't re-run the updater after I extracted the files I just ran the game.

This is a link to the file from the post.

PS, I had never played this before so I had nothing in my PlaneShift folder to lose but it looks like everything is on the server anyway.
