Spring RTS Engine

Hi so my freind and I downloaded a working binary of the mac osx spring game. We got the mods and maps. Now we I started a game and he would join. Simple right WRONG!! The game says unnamed player atempted to join but was rejected becouse it he wasn'int in the script. We really need some help on this one. Were can i find the script to fix that?

I don't know the state of Mac OS spring, but I think the "script" it's talking about is script.txt - this file is not a static script file you're missing, but a file containing all the player/map/server info for the game you're about to start. That is to say, if it's missing or not finding it, something is going very wrong between the lobby and spring.exe.

Use springlobby / TASserver to setup games

I just need a script that has his name in it or something so that he can join. It says he sees the game and can join buy my script, commanders, or any other like the empty script wont let him cause his name isn't in it.

And i cant get into a game on spring lobby cause my vertion is out of date

Ohh and were using direct ip

Yeah, multiplayer with direct IP is kinda not working at the moment.

At least multiplayer via localhost with multiple spring executables works fine.

If a direct IP doesn't work, the connection should be easily possible to be piped through localhost.

ok were do i put those? haha

they are the command line arguments for spring so in the install directory

spring.exe script_client.txt

Sorry... the fact that you need to ask that question puts you so far out of my expectations for the general computer use abilities of a person who I expect to be able to play spring at this time...

In case you just misunderstood my post:

Save the Files to your spring directory, create a blank text document with the file in that directory as "BatchFileName.Bat" that contains the text:
Spring.exe ScriptFileName.txt

Run said batch file.

OMG I AM SUCH A N00B, SORRY FOR BEING DUMB...

Hum... I'm totally a PC user but OSX is basically a unix flavour so I'd suggest trying to run it from terminal... though I'm terribly foggy about OSX's filesystem.

lol its all good man lmao

Still waiting for some help here.

...

Nobody knows how to use a mac. Idunno, try dragging the attached textfiles onto the Spring executable? How do you launch an app with a file parameter on a Mac?

Did you try running it from terminal?

Man using .sh instead of .bat is so complex, and possibly putting ./ on Spring.exe and you're such a noob pxtlv.
