I use Springie on Ubuntu Hardy, it seems to work but when I start it :
I got this message (in a small window) :
spring-dedicated.exe not found.
Spring can't work without this file or I need it ? If yes, where can I found it ?
And Licho... thanks a lot for you work and portage on linux.

You have to configure Springie to use /usr/games/spring-dedicated.
You can find the setting in main.xml:
Code: Select all
<ExecutableName>/usr/games/spring-dedicated</ExecutableName>

can you please re-enable that everything what's going on with springie is sent to stdout (chatmesseages, !-commands, game starts, balance, etc)? i always used it to log everything but this isn't possible anymore now. (or atleast add some cli-arg that it can be enabled on demand.)

hi,
Thanks for the springie host. I've been attempting to set it up on a windows PC (winxp and vista). Has anyone got a working install on windows?
My problem is:
* I can run springie and join one of its hosted games
* I can send commands like, !start
* When I start the round, the battle locks and the connected clients load spring and sit on the connection to server screen. This is where the clients stay, waiting for springie to host.
* I ALT-TAB to check springie, and find it locked, then unlocked the game straight away.
[15:29:19] <TitanTree> !start
[15:29:19] <AI01_TitanTree> please wait, game is about to start
[15:29:21] <AI01_TitanTree> game locked
[15:29:22] <AI01_TitanTree> game unlocked
* All clients return to battle room after they time out... or esc.
* We could try again, but same result.
I don't think its related to the firewall or anything because I can host manually with no problems.
I've turned springie into debug mode, msg box etc and no outputs so could this be a spring-dedicated.exe issue and not springie? Any debug ideas?
Thanks

Check log file, it probably cannot find dedicated server. Also make sure you have latest dedicated server compatible with 77b5

Hi thanks for the reply.
I confirmed no errors were in the springie_errors.txt file.
I have also confirmed I'm running the latest version of the spring-dedicated.exe.
I then checked the infolog.txt for where my spring-dedicated.exe file is running, it appears to just stall.
This is all infolog.txt has in it... no errors, is this spring-dedicated.exe having problems?

Using read-write data directory: c:\program files\spring2\
Scanning: c:\program files\spring2\maps
Scanning: c:\program files\spring2\base
Scanning: c:\program files\spring2\mods
---
I join from spring installed at c:\program files\spring\ But run spring-dedicated.exe from c:\program files\spring2\
Thanks for any advice.
TT

same issue here on xp.
If I run springie form my normal spring folder and use the spring.exe it works fine, if I use spring-dedicated.exe no-one can connect. infolog just has those 3 lines, no springie errors.
Does anyone have the dedicated exe working on xp?

Make sure you have latest build of it. Grab the one from jobjol, that should work. If not ask other people who have it running under windows.
I have only custom modified dedicated with bugfixes needed for planetwars.

Best way to test dedicated is to start it with commandline and give it path to strartup script as parameter (generated by springie for example springie8452.txt).
You should then see what is the problem.

I'm interested in using this for a small project. I've been reading a good bit, but im finding it hard to get a clear set of instructions on how to get this working.
I got the source and the binaries, both of which i have working. It's confusing me a bit by requiring a log in?
Hoping someone can clarify this for me, if its not too much trouble.

have some problems on linux (ubuntu 8.04 HH) when trying to start ModInfoBuilder or Springie.
Code: Select all
~/spring$ mono ModInfoBuilder.exe
Needs path to spring
~/spring/infolog.txt contain
Code: Select all
using configuration source "/home/zzzzzzz/.springrc"
OS: Linux
Using read-write data directory: /home/zzzzzzz/spring/
Using read-only data directory: /home/zzzzzzz/.spring/
Using read-only data directory: /usr/share/games/spring/
...
so i am frustrated which path to use. looks like all this folders contain unique data (maps, mods, etc. some are empty).
any help or suggestion? (which files/pathes Springie and ModInfoBuilder needs?)
ps: thanks for Springie!

Ahh right i never tested builder on linux, im using windows. It needs spring path and assumes mods are in "mods" subfolder and maps in "maps".
Its probably best to ask someone to generate those files on windows and just copy them.

Hi!
I suggest a better votekick/voteban system, where you can vote even if there are other ongoing votes.
Basically, anyone should be able to type !votekick username at any time and if enough people do so, the kick/ban is executed.
The purpose is to eliminate the problem with morons that start votes for other things just to avoid getting kicked themselves.
In addition to this, it might be good if votekick always implies 1 minute ban, because the morons tend to come right back in after getting kicked.
What do you think?
