<Rhym3z> im new. it says engine downloading but when i click downloads, nothing is there?
<I_casso> Rhmy3z Did you try joining a multiplayer game? It should autodowload upon joining the game.
<Rhym3z> it says the engine is downloading on the bottom left, but its not in the downloads tab. i get: [Error] ../../tools/pr-downloader/src/main.cpp:173:main(): No engine version found for 96. when i try manually
<[2up]knorke> Rhym3z: which operation system? windows?
<Rhym3z> windows 7 64bit

without more details i can't help. pr-downloader is right, there is no engine version 96, only 96.0 is valid.

this is how it works:

pr-downloader --download-engine 96.0

He was one of new players so that is all details there is
i dont think he was using pr-downloader as commandline tool,
just from within lobby.
So that is the correct error one would expect for
pr-downloader --download-engine 96
? then maybe lobby is calling it wrong?

[abma]

then maybe lobby is calling it wrong?

very likely. i saw a game which used "spring" as engine version too, weblobby seems to have some really weird bugs related to multiversion / hosting battles.

The only thing I can think of is the host of the battle created the room with the version as 96 instead of 96.0. GIGO.

[abma]

version as 96 instead of 96.0

some hosts had set it to much more worse stuff. please check usage of OPENBATTLE / implement the cl compatibility flag.

(not sure if pr-downloader or lobby problem)

That's a *very* common problem. I usually search for song lyrics in Spanish and the accents are replaced by symbols like those on 95% of all lyrics pages too.

If someone wonders it says " the operation completed correctly"
