Problem with Spring version\ Springlobby version

[Erik]

It keeps saying me that both of these arent up to date and i have older versions, yet i have downloaded and installed both of them. Any clue on whats wrong?

[hoijui]

guess what, we would need more info

*on purpose not giving any more hints*




well ok ...
OS, spring version, SL version, the way you installed them

[Erik]

I use windows XP, the newest spring version(i updated) and Springlobby. Whenever i launch Springlobby it asks me to DL the newest version (0.23 or so), if i press ok it just tells me it sucessfully downloaded it but nothing changes.

[hoijui]

still missing info:

..., spring version, ..., the way you installed them(spring)

check your settings in SL under Options - Spring

[Erik]

the problem with my version is that i installed 80.4.1 but it shows up as 79.xyz. Same goes for the lobby which keeps telling me that its version 0.19 and wants to update to 0.23, if i choose autoupdate it does so and tells me "installation complete, changes will have effect on next restart" but next time the update request pops up again.

SL update has been broken for some time now. In options under Springlobby, is it pointing towards where you installed spring (spring.exe and unitsync.dll?

[Erik]

yes it is.

Look in add/remove programs in control panel. I'm guessing that you accidentally have 2 spring versions installed (most likely a completely honest mistake).

mmm after unistalling the Spring 1944 part i get "coulnt get your Spring version from any unitsync library" whenever i try to go online. When i try to watch a replay (the one from Blood and Steel), i get the same error + "invalid player player 2" constantly while the game runs, when said player chooses a starting point it crashes.
