If it's the same problem I've been having... The splash screen appears, the spash screen disappears. The entry for the client shows up in the taskbar. No window appears. The client process begins consuming all spare CPU cycles. Deleting Alta.ini has no effect.

I tried and it did not work for me.
Maybe the client says STFU to win2k3

strange ...
does it work on an other OS ?

on x64 the CPU useage is normal, but i get an error message if I quit the client.

On win2k everything seems to be fine. ( I used the same file, thanks to 2 hdds )

here a screenshot of x64:

This is not with the latest version for me but the 100%CPU useage is still present on win2k3.
On win xp x64 is an error message when I quit the client.
On win2k all seems to be working.
What OS are you useing Egarwaen?

it would be awesome when the server works without the need to load a 3d ingame-whatever.

so that i can host a game on my virtual machine :) (there is no 3d acceleration)

altaric · Post by **altaric** » 02 Jun 2006, 07:49

of course that would be cool, but i can't do anything about it

the core is written in C and i have no knowledge nor compiler for that

ok, today, server waqs down and i had the freeze at startup some of you are experiancing, i could trace the program and found a glitch
it was waiting for #main to be created to write version warnings

V1.41

moved the version check routine to a low priority thread
this should fix the freezes experianced by some of you

update for update soon ? :)

Egarwaen · Post by **Egarwaen** » 17 Jun 2006, 04:38

v1.41 solved this problem for me. Also, I don't have mine configured to auto-connect on startup, so if AltaMod was busy-waiting on #main being created, it definitely explains the behaviour I saw.

V 1.43

open map picker now appears, was hidden by list
removed the Away status icon
changed fonts color : black for AFKers and blue for others
(blue is brighter than black so i think it's better this way)
