(TASClient) Can not get it work

Post by knorke »

Downloaded this: http://springfiles.com/downloadmain/15995
from here:
http://springrts.com/wiki/Download

Unzipped into a folder but then it would not find Devil.dll etc so I assume it must be unzipped into Spring\ folder. So I did that.

Start the .exe, it says "Progress: loading map (blabla)"
Finally it is done, I click the "Einzelspieler" tab (single player)

Get this message:
Image

Click yes. It does stuff and seems to finish.

Get message about some missing file. The file is there.
Image

click ok.
This appears:
Image
After clicking okay it does not exit.

click Einzelspieler again, it wants to cache again :roll:

Try to close the program, get this message:
Image
http://pastebin.com/a3aagSju
and the program does not close
Try clicking [x] a few times, always same error.
Use taskmanager to close it.

Just noticed I also saved a screenshot of this message:
Image
but I do not remember when that appeared.
(the file is also there)

my guess is that unitsync changes the current path to your springcontent directory and it also changes it for the lobby, and since tasclient doesn't always use the exe path to do its shit but use the current path, a dirty solution is to copy the whole "lobby" dir from the tasclient archive inside your springcontent dir until tasclient is fixed

edit : fixed : http://springrts.com/dl/tasclient/TASClientLatest.7z

that works now, nice :)

At first when I was hosting a game it would always load zero-K on Small Divide map, no matter what was selected.
I deleted the script.txt and _script.txt and then it started correct game.

Also in chat it spams messages like
Error writing to cache: lobby\cache\maps\-2094918146.info
but so far no other problems...

There might be a bug with singleplayer:
When adding >3 bots the gaiea team can not recieve units anymore.
Neither by gadget with Spring.CreateUnit or /give cheat
Sharing with "h"-menu still works.

When using /give this is the message:
Warning: [GiveUnits] unable to give more units to team 4 (current: 0, team limit: 0, global limit: 32000)
startscript:

and another with BA and NullAIs:

When hosting multiplayer game this does not happen.
