SVN 238 help needed

[greywolf79]

I am a new shard owner... I had RC1 up and running and have gotten some scripts to work and even with a lot of help make one. However I wanted to upgrade and so I chose to use SVN 238 (The newest as of now?)... However, after compiling the server's .exe file it will not let me use my client (5.0.5b) saying there was a "Lenient Kick" and something about a limit of version 5.0.5a, it deletes my account, and then I lose connection. What is wrong? Can someone help me please?

The latest SVNs don't support old clients ( < 6.0.0.0 versions I guess ). Use ~182 SVN or patch your client

[twizfire]

well there's a reason to have the client versions correct. If some one isn't updated enough then they wont be able to see things in the game and lose some other functionality. I don't know how to set the file to require a specific version but here is a temporary fix until some one that knows how to do that can get back to you.
find clientverification.cs and change this line to false. it's right up top.

		private static bool m_DetectClientRequirement = true;

I believe that is an incorrect statement I can use both 5.0.9 and 6.0.1.8+ on my shard using the latest SVN, there is a deference between not supporting older clients and suggesting one update their client. Older clients are supported, there is just a newish feature to help ensure everyone playing on a shard has an up to date version.

The issue here is as twizfire suggested.

It seems like the client verification looks for the version installed on the server and compares it to the version being used by the end user. It also appears that there is a line commented out where you can pick a specific version.

in clientverification.cs

//ClientVersion.Required = null;
//Required = new ClientVersion( "6.0.0.0" );

Greywolf, since you mentioned in another topic it is just you and a few friends I would just turn it off as twizfire said and tell your players which version to use.

Sorry. Just thought those client changes (network changes, different facets for Trammel/Felucca and others) made using 5.x.x.x version impossible

I tried running it after making that statement false so it would not make it be a certain version client... It tells me lost connection on the client and then when I pull up the command console window for the shard it has rebooted and is loading all the scripts again, and then asks me if I want to make an administrator account because there is none. (I made one the first time before the lost connection).

Do you get some sort of crash log when the server reboots?

It's saying you are missing the zlib32.dll

You can download it here:
http://www.runuo.com/mark/zlib32.dll

Put that in your main RunUO folder

[greywolf79]

Ok, thank you... I downloaded and will try it when I get home tonight from work... Off to the grinding stone for now.
