so if i install op and the op patch pluss the two downloads at the beginning of this post i can get on the server

You'll need the Directory Server patch as well to get on the D2.

A full install of OP+4 includes the directory server fix.

Glad to see you made it on. There is no way you can change that easily yourself. The best solution is to create a new gamespy account on another email and login with that, choosing your race carefully.

If that is a really big pain for you, I may be able to take the server down and edit your current character's race in the database.

I was able to make a new gamespy account to work around the problem.  However afterwards i noticed that my sound isn't working on this server  :banghead:

How are you launching the game? From the CD-Autorun menu or from the Start Menu? Do you see the movie at the beginning?

I'm launching the game using the StarfleetOP.exe from the game folder.  I have 2 seperate folders one for each server.  The one for Strayy's tavern works fine,  no problems to report there.  The one for The Forge has no sound AT ALL.  In both cases i do not see a movie at the beginning.

Are you cycling the two installs through the original install folder or running them in folders different from the original install?

The one for Strayy's Tavern is running from the original install folder(forgot to make a backup :-[) The one for The Forge is running from a different folder.

As for the backup thing....i did remember to make a copy of the original for The Forge, but goofed on Strayys tavern.  Short version is...i'd have to do a complete reinstall to get a original unaltered install, and i'm not sure where the CD is at the moment.

Have a look at this post:
http://www.dynaverse.net/forum/index.php/topic,163365074.msg1122726918.html#msg1122726918

The idea is you always run OP from the same location (the original install location) and then rename your copies so that the active copy has the original install folder name... get it?

yeah i get it.  Tried running The Forge from the original install location, and the sound still isn't working.  Strayy's tavern still works great, even when run from a location besides the original install.

Seems how i still can't figure out the problem with The Forge, i'm just going to delete everything and start with a fresh install, if i can find my CD that is.  I probably won't have much time to look for it, till this weekend.

It is fine for me too, but if it still doesn't work, maybe the links at http://klingon.pet.dhs.org/OP_plusrefit/ will.

Managed to find my CD and do a fresh install.  Things are working good now  ;D.  I did have one other question though.....Is it possible to take over neutral territories on this server? You know like turn a neutral hex into a federation one?
