@zarz02: > @Soul I am assuming it didn't install correctly then. So I just install it over again? Nothing special? I follwed the install guide exactly the first time, running as admin in comp mode Try installing it again. Make sure you redownload the source code after you do so as well.

@TheChoosenOne: > I don' think this would affect the server because the server doesn't need OLE. > OLE is a database ActiveX control. Please follow these guidelines: [Don't know the answer? Don't reply!](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf2/index.php?topic=51559.0) I know it sounds extremely harsh but it makes it hard to give support if the user thinks that the topic is resolved. * * * Tangent aside, this error means you haven't installed VB6 SP6 (or if you have, you haven't done it properly), [here is a guide on how to do it](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf2/index.php/topic,68399.msg736833.html#msg736833). Afterwards, redownload both the server and client source (server.vbp, client.vbp, server/src/ and client/src/) and replace them with your old sources.

@Dawntide: > Where to get VB 6 to get started? I don't think even 50% of the developers around here bought it for 500$, so where to get it, send me a link with PM. We do not condone or support illegal activity here at Eclipse. And yeah, nobody buys it from eBay. Usually some other bay, a garage sale, or through a friend with an old license.

@Ariel: > I already tried it, its the first thing i do whenever i come across an error but there is no RUN AS thing :( WTF Press the start menu, go into the search bar, and type "cmd.exe" (no quotes). Then right-click the entry titled "Command Prompt" and click "Run As Administrator". Then do regsvr.

Make sure that the packet enumerations client-side and server-side match, and that nothing is after SMSG_COUNT / CMSG_COUNT.

@Rydo: > Delete the items in your server folder and re-make the item. No, the problem is with the map, not the resource or the item. @zarz02: > Before I test this, is there anyway to edit out a resource while unable to operate the client? Because last time it glitched as I said further up I couldn't even start the server. Just delete the one map the failed resource is on. I'll try and see if I can come up with a client-side fix. However, this would be retroactive at best. Of course, you could just be extra careful to make sure the resource is saved before you place it. * * * **Edit**: Here's a fix for the future you can add so this doesn't happen again. Please test it. Client-side. Find: ``` ' move the entire attributes box on screen ``` and before that add: ``` If ResourceEditorNum = 0 Then ResourceEditorNum = 1 ```

@raymanic13: > Ok, but i dont want to install eo_runtimes to the other persons computer completely. He doesnt have permission to have files installed into the system32 folder The only way for Eclipse to work is if it can register the .dll files. This applies for nearly any game (e.g., Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable, DirectX Redist, etc.). This is not unique to Eclipse.

@Ariel: > Only i get a error code when trying to launch the regSvr32? :\ What does it say?

Just read this tutorial (don't just copy it step for step, make sure you read the directions, they tell you how to change the font): [Memory Leak-Free Text Rendering](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf2/index.php/topic,71691.0.html).

You need permission to make a game off of anything that's copyrighted.

Make sure you are opening client.vbp or server.vbp, not just the individual files.

Something is missing from the client\data files\graphics\gui folder. You could redownload Eclipse and copy over the default GUI.

Copy eo_runtimes.exe to the thumb drive.

Server-side in Sub PlayerMapGetItem(ByVal index As Long) find: ``` For i = 1 To MAX_MAP_ITEMS ``` and replace it with: ``` For i = MAX_MAP_ITEMS To 1 Step -1 ```

The resources sometimes error out. I don't know exactly why, but I've always suspected it happens when you place down a resource before pressing "save" on the popup to select the resources. Can you try replicating it like that?
