ref - cheat msg on the GW5 dyna
« on: April 09, 2005, 10:05:28 am »
after using the Original and GW5  batch switch files, i logged onto the GW5 server to find a cheat msg in the mission , indicating the model size had been changed since the last log on..
Any suggestions as to how i can fix this problem?.. It's a problem having to explain to each  player that drafts me into a mission, plus it looks bad.

Someone else had that at the beginning of the campaign. I would uninstall GW5 then uninstall OP+4.0, and then reinstall OP+4.0 and then GW5.

I don't think you need to re-install. That msg only occurs if changes are made while the games still open. Close your game completely, then reboot your game and log back on, see if you still get it. That's made so that if a player switches a shiplist, model size, etc, just before game start (amied at GSA players mostly) the msg will flash to all players in the game.

And remember, if you do have to resort to uninstalling, just run the nifty uninstaller programs. redownloading everything shouldn't be needed.

Netman, I had the same problem, and wasnt even trying to cheat.

All I did was reinstall the GW5 installation pack and had no trouble after that.

Actually the  advice KBFLordKrueg gave worked  "Close your game completely, then reboot your game and log back on, see if you still get it."
It worked fpr me ... Thank you  KBFLordKrueg

NP. You only get that message when settings are changed while the games open. Or when another player in the game with you has different settings than the other players in the same game.
