[Beta3RC1] ManiaPlanet 2 Beta3 Server 2013-02-09b

[fng_thatoneguy]

Thanks... trying that and the server seems to have launched alright...

I'm now waiting for my client to complete the update so I can see if it's all good. I'll report back when I know more.

Seems all good. Thanks for the help!

The (alas!) usual brown paper bag release, 2013-02-09b has been uploaded.
A bug was turning the ladder system off in 2013-02-09 release....

SO from the start.. running on XP
then i started top90.bat which is all working with old version.. nothing happens .. bat doesnt report any error..
but then .. Maniaplanetserver.exe has encountered a problem and has to be closed.

I'll double check if it works for me in XP.
But please note that you need to update the packs and the scripts, not just the .exe

What means that? (I copied old dedicated_cfg to new server with all servers)
Why does it work sometimes and sometimes not?

[masleyko]

when i start runsrvtm.bat
this is what i see

Code: Select all

c:\tm2>ManiaPlanetServer.exe /title=TMCanyon /game_settings=MatchSettings/maplist90.txt /dedicated_cfg=top90.txt

and then maniaplanetserver.exe crashes

[kremsy]

changing to old elite dont work (serversoftware bug?)

[fng_thatoneguy]

I only saw three files updated:
==========================
Top2.Script.txt
ManiaPlanetServer
ManiaPlanetServer.exe

Is this correct? If so, is there a reason we had to download the whole server again? That took a lot of time, being as the bandwidth was throttled (high traffic?)

Or am I missing something and I need to update more files than those three?

PS: Thanks for the fast response on the ladder fix Nadeo!

[franck70]

Nice it's work for me

add this to your matchsettings:

<mode_script_settings>
<setting name="S_UseEliteB2" type="boolean" value="1"/> <!-- Default : 0 -->
</mode_script_settings>

and restart your server
