well, title is self explanatory.

ive lost 1100 prestige already, everytime after a fight ive lost connection afterwards, solo or drafted, trying to do an action or waiting on my sorry butt for my prestige

any idea WHY this is happening? i have NO firewall running right now, running on my motherboards chipset's integrated lan, i COULD switch to the Gb lan but its finicky sometimes and id have to tell everyone in the 9th the TS IP changed lol

Thanks

Sounds like you are running a teamspeak server on the same connection you are playing from? Teamspeak servers are nasty bandwidth hogs and it may be interfering with your game connection. Are you behind a router? Is the MTU set? (if so, reset it to the default)

Try putting the KCW shiplist and fighterlist into the \MetaAssets folder to see if that helps.

Also ensure that you fully disable any anti-virus software while playing. (The norton privacy filter program is known to interfere and must be uninstalled entirely).

i AM running a teamspeak server but no one is on it and it doesnt seem to interfeere with anythign else :S

Ah, if no one is on it, then it should not interfere.. its use only gets nasty when there is more than a few on it.

Operations were moved to THOR (Xenocorp's Server) at noon eastern time today. Try it now, different physical server so if it was an internet problem, this might have helped.

This problem will probably persist until you disable your AntiVirus and firewall programs. You can just run a full AV scan after you're finished playing each evening. Pretty sure you won't find anything. Its browsing the web that brings viruses, not playing OP.

Also if you are running anything that resembles Kazaa or other P2P programs, for the love of god turn it off, better yet uninstall it and forget it ever existed.

Regarding Helkern... are you running a Microsoft SQL Server 2000 server? If not, then you do not need to worry about it.

I think you are running a cable connection and have no router if I remember correctly. I have AntiVirus running with OP. It makes no difference for me. I also used to be able to run OP with software firewall enabled. Be that as it may, I'd check to make sure that you are not running TS on one of the ports that OP needs.

correct lepton, ive tried disabling my AV, put the shiplist and ftrlist in meta assets, went into a fight with no hope of winning and died, nothing different. for now all i have to say is ive had a bad enoguh day as it is...

and lepton ive tried without TS running so yea...

just made a new character as well and it did sh*t all

and Bonk, i use bittorrent... would that do anything? ive got it running right now but its going slow... meh ill try it

F9th0mega · « **Reply #11 on:** January 21, 2006, 04:58:04 pm »

ka-bump again...

I tried killing BT but it did nothing... And i just remembered i could play fine on the test server IIRC...

this sucks

i cant get anything but i cant lose my ship or resources either...

If need be Omega, turn off the TeamSpeak system. For the duration of KCW we'll probably be on the Dynaverse.net server anyways, and I'd rather have a friend flying than a TS system up that is dormant for the time being

already tried that ryker, had no affect what so ever...

this is driving me insane, i can flip hexes and everything, all the server side results are kept, but my stuff just doesnt <_< no damage incurred, my ship can be destroyed and i just get it back, none of my resources are expended... all this leads to a very pissed off klingon <_< lol

Bonk · « **Reply #14 on:** January 21, 2006, 05:28:30 pm »

A few things:

Have you edited your shortcut to the game to point to StarFleetOP.exe and added the correct "Start In" parameter?

Are you flying solo missions or being drafted?

Try the atttached NWMissionConfig.scr (unzip and place in \Assets\Scripts)

F9th0mega · « **Reply #15 on:** January 21, 2006, 05:38:18 pm »

yes

both

trying that now

anyone willing to try a PvP? just warp out when we get in?

Bonk · « **Reply #16 on:** January 21, 2006, 05:41:07 pm »

Also, make sure there are no apostrophes in your character name. (think DOS filenames, upper and lowercase letters, numbers and the underscore character, thats it.)

F9th0mega · « **Reply #17 on:** January 21, 2006, 11:57:51 pm »

already tried that

didnt help

Bonk · « **Reply #18 on:** January 23, 2006, 09:48:49 am »

I suspect you may be missing the attached file (not actually a mission, but required client side for NW scripts to work). Unzip it and place the .scr file in \Assets\Scripts.

If you have the shiplist switcher, you could go to Gamespy and try and get in a 3 v 3 and see how that holds. If you can run a 3 v 3 on gamespy, let us know, that is a clue..
