Where i get new lobby so i could find servers? I CANT FIND IT ANYWHERE

Posted: **06 Oct 2008, 19:47**

http://tasclient.licho.eu/TASClientLatest.7z

if it still doesnt work make sure that:
- taspringmaster.clan-sy.com is the server (check options)
- 8200 (port)

I had a similar problem. The welcome message on the lobby gives a link to a folder containing about 10 different files, some of which aren't actually server versions. There's no way of telling just by the filename which is the most recent (unless you already know - but to someone who doesn't it's very confusing). There's also no instruction as to where to put the file (though that becomes more obvious when you unzip). It seems simple enough with hindsight but to someone who hasn't done it before it's very ambiguous.

I wanted to update from TASClient 0.36. I found the version above on jobjol.nl and unzipped and overwrote the previous lobby. Stupidly (again a noob would never think to do this in the first place...) I didn't keep a backup of the file I replaced. I now have another problem. Now when I start it crashes on "creating forms". I can't seem to get back onto the server. Any idea what I should try now?

try the latest stable instead? http://tasclient.licho.eu/

Ok. That's fixed me. I guess its not so much a problem with the latest install of Spring, but I was trying to upgrade. Finding the right client and knowing what to do with it took longer than I'd have hoped. Oh well... I'm sorted now :)

true, the curent release is really hard to install correctly, I'm sure we lose hundreds of potential players every month because of that. if you have nobody who shows you everything, gives you essential links etc. you soon lose interest.
