i chnaged some values for the bases, no more. BS's I didnt touch. Was it a SB, BATS or BS def?

Since there was no base, he cant say... it was likely one you changed.  The right question is who was defending? Check their starbase.

It was I who was defending. The mission briefing said it was a SB i was defending. As I said at no time did any of us see a SB

Us alliance types had been hitting the I-SB's all day to see what could take them down.

So unless it was a base that had not shown up before, I think they are ok.

I'd like to test that PvP mission again, repeat the sides.

So far all the bases appear to be fine in the list. I'm wondering if that particular script is looking for a base not in OPplus 4.0. Dunno. More test.

DH, why was the "Met_NW7FleetAssault.scr" pulled? ::)


It wasn't pulled.   Please know what you are talking about before making acusations  ;D

    Accusation
n: A charge of wrongdoing that is made against a person or other party.[/list]

Now, DH, did I miss something here? I don't see an accusation against you for anything. Instead, it looks like a question to me. And if I knew what I was talking about, I wouldnt have asked the question, now would I? But I don't go around asking stupid questions for no reason. Perhaps I mistook this mission as a 3v3 which you say have all been pulled. I take it this isnt a 3v3 then? Wern't you the one who told me all the 3v3's were gone? Go take your medicine.

And whoever put that rolling eyes in my post can go take it out.

Also- and not to keep smacking the deceased equine- but are we getting ship build + rules up anytime soon?
I'd like to be able to give guys some time to think it over if possible, and since there's always confusion about rules
if we're still trying for a Sunady start I'd hope the rules would be in place Fridayish.

Keep wishing, not going to happen.   Final rules will likely be posted after the server starts.

OK I just know that makes some sort of weird sense.

What about ship builds? (which is the sorta important thing anyway I guess) is there
a "pre server" build round or is the first one after the server starts?

Lyran CF's & NCF's are not marked as special yet btw.
Since you were so rude as mo mark our escorts as special I assume this was an oversight.
(Nooo the Lyrans can't build escorts!!!)

honestly, I don't have time to really document stuff.   I have to work ast my new job.   A poste here and there is about all I can squeeze in.

I'm been occupied doing other work that could have been avoided had some people been more organized (not naming names here . . . ).  If you want documentation before the server, the server is going to have to be delayed.

No way around this.

Nah not blaming you.
Figure you'll get all whining & crying and it will be tough to kill yuo if you don't fly on the server.
Kinda waiting for someone else to decide if the minutiae is done to his satisfaction or if he wants to add/remove another ADD
on his starbases.  ::)

Diz- just so I can plan some stuff, are we planning for Sunday or delaying another week?

I certainly have no problem with delaying, I'd rather have all of the proverbial ducks in a row than chance having stuff be fubar because of rushing it.

I agree - I don't want to come across as saying "start it now" Id much rather it be ready.
Just last I heard Dizzy was planning on launching this weekend.
If he needs to (or wants to) wait another week I'm fine with that.

Additional mirror for installer that is current with the server:

http://fire.prohosting.com/astinky/SGO4/SGO4.exe (click through on the link to the file presented)

or the original location at lycos:

http://members.lycos.co.uk/astinky/SGO4/

Both of these copies are current with the server.

Still no dice.

FYI, this is on a fresh install of OP, patched, OP+4.0, then SG04. (actually, it's a copy of a 3.4 installation, that uninstalled, then 4.0 installed, with SG04. Yes- the latest one. Only the scripts are missing)
I didn't have a previous installer or old GW files as I saw mentioned somewhere. I checked the completed installation list of the SG04 installer, and it didn't list those scripts I listed earlier here. Did a login check, still reports the same missing files.

"This server has detected that on or more of the necessary files required to connect or either missing or incompatible."

What is the name of the server you are trying to login to?
(Those missions simply are not on the SGO4 server - you must be trying to login to a different server.)

Are you running multiple OP installs?

Are you running firewalls and anti-virus software?

What operating system are you running?

Hold the phone.... I just wiped my scripts folder and ran the installer...

I was misled... kind of... the mct file supposedly only references:

0="Met_NW5FleetAction.scr"
1="Met_NW5PatrolAllied.scr"
2="Met_NW5PatrolPlayer.scr"
3="Met_NW6Patrol.scr"
4="Met_NW7BaseStationAssault.scr"
5="Met_NW7BaseStationAssPvP.scr"
6="Met_NW7BattleStationAssault.scr"
7="Met_NW7BattleStationAssPvP.scr"
8="Met_NW7FleetAssault.scr"
9="Met_NW7SectorAssault.scr"
10="Met_NW7StarbaseAssault.scr"
11="Met_NW7StarbaseAssPvP.scr"
12="Met_NW8ShipAssault.scr"
13="Met_NW8ShipYPvP.scr"
14="Met_SG4_9PlanetaryAssault.scr"
15="Met_NW10PatrolAllied.scr"
16="Met_NW13Monster.scr"
17="Met_NW14Enigma.scr"
18="Met_NW16ShipDefense.scr"
19="Met_NW16ShipDefPvP.scr"
20="Met_NW18HomeworldAssault.scr"
21="Met_NW19Scan.scr"
22="Met_NW21DistressCall.scr"
23="Met_NW23Quarters.scr"
24="Met_NWAlliedBaseDefense.scr"
25="Met_NWAlliedPatrol.scr"
26="Met_NWAlliedPlanetDefense.scr"
27="Met_NWBaseStationAssault.scr"
28="Met_NWBattleStationAssault.scr"
29="Met_NWEnemyPatrol.scr"
30="Met_NWOneOnOne.scr"
31="Met_NWPirateInTheMiddle.scr"
32="Met_NWPlayerBaseDefense.scr"
33="Met_NWPlayerPatrol.scr"
34="Met_NWPlayerPlanetDefense.scr"
35="Met_NWPlanetAssault.scr"
36="Met_NW5FleetAction.scr"
37="Met_NWStarbaseAssault.scr"
38="Met_StarbaseConstruction.scr"


The other missions must still be in the SGO4 server "ValidatedClientFiles" folder.

I was asked to remove any missions not used from the installer, these same missions should be removed from the "ValidatedClientFiles" folder.
