cRPG Technical problems / Re: cRPGLauncher.exe trouble? post here!

« on: March 21, 2012, 12:28:31 am »

Right, I made a crude C# downloader that uses a different method than the official one (thanks to cmp for clarifying it wasn't what I thought it was ) I can't test wether that fixes the getting stuck problem or not since I can't reproduce it, but maybe some of you can!

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
- No guarantees on it working. I managed to download a working cRPG installation on one go at about the same speed as the official one manages to do it.
- Requires .NET framework 4.0 or newer. The official one is fine with older version, but I use a filesaving method that was only recently implemented. You can get it from http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=17851
- Program needs to be in your Warband /Modules/ directory. It doesn't look for correct place to download to - it just creates a cRPG folder wherever it happens to be and downloads the crap to there.
- If you don't get an error before the "FINISHED"-text it probably downloaded stuff correctly. Next step is to run the official cRPG launcher in repair mode and see if it actually downloaded things correctly (and if it did, that will launch WSE)
- Unlike the official program, this one downloads directly to the mod folder and does not delete the files on a failure (or if you close the program). This means that if you got stuck to random files before and still do with this one, you might be able to get the whole installation by just trying multiple times. This, however, is not the goal of the program, but if it let's you get the game, you're welcome. Do report it though.
- Please report if this fixes the getting stuck problem so I'll (and more importantly: the devs will) know if this is a solution. If it gets stuck, please report the last line or two of text you got so I might be able to look into it.

Get it from: http://nikita.tnnet.fi/~elmokki/crpg/cRPG-unofficial.exe

Give it a few seconds at start - it'll download the file list for updates without announcing doing that and it might take a moment. If it doesn't start spamming filenames and what's happening to them in a minute, something's wrong right away

If this doesn't work, I'll code a Java version and we'll see if it's C# related. If that doesn't work, well, it's probably your internets hating the program.

Elmokki,

Any plans to release a new "unofficial launcher"  for the .271 update?  Or is there a place I can just download all the files directly?  The unofficial seemed to work for me for .270, but the official launcher has never worked for me.

Thanks for the help,
Ben E Gas

yeah, that one wouldn't work for me either.  Even with firewall off.  When I first got cRPG to work, I had to use the "unofficial Launcher", any idea where I can get that, updated file?

I get "Update Failed" Message when I run the cRPG Launcher 0.6.1.  Is that the correct launcher?

Where and how do I install the update 0.271?  I couldn't find the link anywhere.  I did a search, sorry if it was obvious.  In the post I found, it listed the full version, but it looked like it was an old file. 

thanks for the help,

That stuff didn't help me when I had tried it when I had troubles.  I found my solution on this other thread:

It was a pain, but I finally got it working.

cRPG Technical problems / Having trouble seeing text on Character website

« on: March 11, 2012, 05:03:33 pm »

I did a search for this and couldn't find the answer.  When I log into the website that has your characters/gear/marketplace, I cannot read the text too well.  It has recently been changed/upgraded, I think.  The text is all black and the background is brown/wood board color.  Is there a way to change this on the settings, so I can read the text easier?  Anyone else have this trouble?  Will this be fixed in the future to make the text a different color than black on a dark brown background?

Thanks,
Ben E Gas

I finally got the game running.  I love it.  I had to delete the cRPG folder completely and run the Unofficial Launcher from someone's post above (thanks for that).  Then it ran that little dos program and created all of the files that I needed.  The only way I can get the game to run though, is to start the game in Native format, then go to multiplayer and select a cRPG server that I want, then it asks if I want to load the mod, I click yes of course.  It loads it up but then I get a message saying I need to run using script editor, I click yes, and it works.  I had to delete the script editor that was in the cRPG folder though and copy and paste in the newer version.  I was shocked when this all worked, I was about to give up.  cRPG is sooo much better than the native multiplayer.  You actually get to save the gold, weapons and XP.  Thanks for a great mod.
