OMG I think my head just blew up!!!

Can someone just put them in a zip file and e mail them to warsears@yahoo.com

Lol...

No need to mail it.

Though if you do not have the proper models.siz, strings and model folders in place you will have problems. Its probably best to uninstall and reinstall the full OP+4 mod on the copy of OP that you are using.

[KBFLordKrueg]

Tyred to log on the other day and got a bad ship list and fighter list. I have  Firesoul's OP+4 installed. Any Ideals?

The shiplist is OP+4 as is. Perhaps you have modified it or have multiple OP installs? Have you created a shortcut to StarfleetOP.exe by copying and pasting it as a shortcut on the desktop? (which is what you want to do...)

Krueg linked the mission pack for you twice there.

OP+4 can be obtained here:

http://www.dynaverse.net/downloads/sfc2_op/Mods/opplus_40_models.exe (with models - 61M)
http://www.dynaverse.net/downloads/sfc2_op/Mods/opplus_40_no_models.exe (using stock models - 275K)

 
Thanks Bonk.
Jeeze louise...you are getting lazy in your old age WS...
I also have the links posted in the Forge Coalition forums, under the thread about the webmap and how to use the features there. 

[Bonk]

OK who's this wisearse Han_Solo gallivanting around the map as a Prime pirate in a Rom R-OMH-KK? A warp doubling Rom DN!!! 

I just might have to put some kind caveat into the tranfers code to prevent this kind of chicanery. Limiting the wormhole network as discussed will help too... but I have another related project on the go at the moment.

When I noticed this today Han_Solo had 666 missions in...    Economic reports indicate that he will likely win the server for the Coalition singlehandedly! (Prime is #1 at 6210 economic points)

Have to give him credit for thinking of it, I hadn't.

So who is the mastermind?

It looks like something Chuut would do. I'd suspect Krueg but he has 1431 mission in on his account...

Aha, looks like its: romulansithlord  <--- evil genius

I have the same problem. I was on a few nights ago, running no problem. I try tonight and get the shiplist/fighterlist error. But I haven't changed anything in the last few days. The only thing I did, which I think was a mistake, was purchase a ship from the webmap without being logged on to the server. I also downloaded the new scripts... one was labelled as new shiplist, but in fact both links pointed to new mission packs. So did I mess something up by purchasing a ship without being logged on to the server?


Thanks

Don't forget to check the Forge Coalition forums for the latest OPs. 

Lord Krueg... I went looking for the shiplist download you list above, and it's the mission pack. I'm just trying to get back in. Thanks

Yes, I accidently put the mission pack link twice...
Bonk posted the correct link after that and I've fixed the link now, try again, sir.

Still not working... but I may have fizzled something trying to make this work. <Insert favorite curse here>


Maybe tomorrow...

Thanks for your help though.

Define "not working"
The link doesn't work?
Can't log on?

Oh. sorry. Not working means I get the same exact error message about fighter list/ship list. They do go in assets/scripts, don't they? Or am I just having a brain fart?

[Riskyllama]

fighter/ship lists go in assets/specs

[Bonk]

THe shiplist and fighterlist go in \Assets\Specs AND \MetaAssets.

However if you are manually installing OP+4 then somehting is not right, it is distributed as an installer. As mentioned above OP+4 also requires strings files a model.siz file and dozens of model folders and models which you should aslo check.

Are you runing multiple installs of OP?

Have you isntalled and configured Hardcore? (did you install the old version of it at any point?)

How are you launching OP? (Try copying StarfleetOP.exe and paste it as a shortcut on the desktop and use that shortcut to launch the game)

Shiplist:
http://www.dynaverse.net/downloads/sfc2_op/Mods/opplus_40_models.exe (61M with models)
OR http://www.dynaverse.net/downloads/sfc2_op/Mods/opplus_40_no_models.exe (275K stock model copies)
http://www.dynaverse.net/downloads/sfc2_op/Mods/opplus_40_shiplist.zip (316K shiplist-fighterlist only - but you can't just throw these on top of a stock install)

Missions:
http://www.dynaverse.net/downloads/sfc2_op/Scripts/TheForgeScripts.exe (1.4M)

I will check the server at some point and give it a reboot to ensure that the security server is not bugged somehow and inconsistently rejecting logins. When this is happening to people are they trying more than once? (could it just be bandwidth issues?)

If you are running multiple OP installs read this post above to see why that can be a problem:
http://www.dynaverse.net/forum/index.php/topic,163366452.msg1122725650.html#msg1122725650
(Only one registry entry for the directory location - despite multiple installs.)

If you want to run multiple copies of OP check this thred:

Hail <S> I have had a problem getting the shipyard to show me any ships. I am on KBF-LordKruegs pc and it shows him the ship list when he is online but not me when I sign in. The only way I can buy a ship is when I am in the game. I am at a loss as to what to do next.

I just saw that in the logs, I'm trying to figure out why now...

Does your GSA D2 login e-mail match the e-mail for your forums account? Let me check that...

[Bonk]

I see the problem, the case of your e-mail addresses used does not match. Give me a minute to edit your forums account e-mial in the database to match the case of your GSA login...

I would modify the webyards code to modify the case of e-mails used, but unfortunately there is a bug in the serverkit that treats the same e-mial with a different case as a different account and people exploit this to create multiple accounts... I might be able to handle both of these cases in the webyards code, but for now I'll just edit the case of your e-mail address in the forums datanase and send you a test message, let me know if you get it ok...

[Bonk]

I edited your email address in the forums database to match the one for your character in The Forge Dynaverse server database and sent a test message, let me know here if you receive the test email message OK.

You should be OK to use the webyards with that account now.

EDIT: I have modified the webyards code to handle cases like this properly now (I think) and it should give an appropriate error message if the email addresses do not match exactly.

[Bonk]

Is anybody else getting shiplist errors on login security check still? I have seen people on the server all day today so I assume the fault is not with the server...

[KBF MalaK]

OK who's this wisearse Han_Solo gallivanting around the map as a Prime pirate in a Rom R-OMH-KK? A warp doubling Rom DN!!!

Heh, I thought I was the only one to try it. I got drafted by a team mate cruising around in a Gorn BB (to counter other Gorns) but I quickly traded it in after it was pointed out to me how dishonorable it was.

But a warp doubling Rom DN, Hmmmmm very interesting.

[KBF-Kapact]

fighter/ship lists go in assets/specs

Oh right. Thanks....
