SkywardRiver Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 You start up your server. Go to your folder, then go to your server folder, then start up the "Server" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synergy Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Run "server.exe", make sure the IP address in the "config.ini" file in both the client and server "data files" folders match. Use "localip" as the IP if you're just running it on your computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synergy Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Paste the contents of the two "config.ini" files here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daneta Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 it wont let me paste the files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synergy Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 No, paste the _**contents**_.Open "config.ini", copy all the text in side it. Then paste that in here. Do the same for both the "config.ini" files (found in client->data files and server->data files).I don't wish to be an ass, but if you cannot understand copy and pasting text, you have no hope of ever using Eclipse to make a game. Eclipse is not for people with 0 knowledge. We'll help you as best we can, but you really must use your own intuition and figure things out for yourself. Come back in a couple of years when you're older and have a bit more knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synergy Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Sorry, it's called "options.ini" in the server, can you find that as well? But that shouldn't matter..Have you allowed the server and client through your firewall? It shouldn't make any difference, but you never know.

Synergy Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Make sure you run both as "admin" (right click on server.exe/client.exe -> run as admin), and when you go to login, have you registered first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daneta Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 i do that but it keeps on saying when i try to go to sever that there is a problem then just shuts down the app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synergy Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 … You could have said that. That isn't a problem with the settings. What is the error code it shows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synergy Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Right Click -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Run in compatibility mode for XP Service Pack 3Do this for both Eclipse.EXE and Server.EXE, and make sure you run both as admin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daneta Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 i did that and it still is doing same thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synergy Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Did you install the runtimes files in comp mode for XPSP3?Without doing it myself, I really have no idea. It could be any number of problems.Try redownloading Eclipse and the runtimes then reinstall the runtimes and see if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daneta Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 i had the run times but i can reinstall both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synergy Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Then I'm afraid I have no idea.You're obviously doing something wrong, and there are so many variables that it could be anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daneta Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 is it maby this when i open sever it says run time error 10048 address in use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synergy Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 … Sigh. Close all versions of the server (server.exe). The server minimises into the icon tray, so make sure you close it from there as well.Also, to into processes (Task Manager -> Processes) and look for "server.exe" - if there is a server.exe process running, select it then press "end process".Then load up the server and try again.

You might be running something else that's using that port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Xavier Castorm Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 ok. long story short. run your server. ok? now go to config.ini on the clients data files. Click the ip section and change it to "localhost" without the quotes. it should work. if not redownload the game. sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
