*DAMN BL Mappack 2.5: Problems / Bug Reports

[Civrock]

like in the thread before for the *DAMN Mappack 2.0...

if anyone discovers a bug or has any problem with the new Mappack v2.5... post it here in this thread!

[Aramarth]

I posted one to Mauti already. Repeating it here just to help make sure he notices. Sent you a fix by email Mauti.

I have downloaded 2.5 and run installer, but i'm getting kicked as games are about to start (and not because i'm crap either). When I run the installer it says it is creating a Ghost Recon Data folder but there is nothing in the DBL 2 folder to indicate an upgrade. How can I tell if upgrade has been successful ?

Please help - v.frustrating !!  

[Civrock]

i've seen this happen when people changed the names of some folders in the GhR folder. you should NEVER do that.

to see if the update has been installed correctly u go to this folder:

Ghost Recon - Desert Siege/Ghost Recon Data/Mods/*DAMN BL Mappack 2

and check the file:

ModsCont.txt

if it says *DAMN BL Mappack 2.5 in there it?s installed correctly.

Problems w/ 2.5

What the heck are u mod guys doing?

The changes made for 2.5 are good, but, to avoid problems, you should have made it DAMN 3, not 2.5

The 2.5 update is causing problems w/ GR.  The effect of these problems is to boot players from games arbitrarily.  GR boots players  because 2.5 is only an update, and GR doesn't understand the differences between 2.0 and 2.5.  

The easiest fix to these problems is, unfortunatley, to create a new version.  So, that the GR player has DAMN 1, 2, and 3.

This will allow GR to make sense of the changes you guys are making.

Thank-you,

Adam.

P.S.  I do appreciate the work you have put forward.  Thank-you very much.

I haven't changed any names and ModsCont.txt still shows v2.0.

I have tried on 2 different computers also.

I did get it to work however by installing elsewhere on the hard drive and then copying these new folders across to the DBL2 folder. I don't know however if I have overwritten any important files. Seems to work though !!

Mauti do you have a list of what the new additions to the mod were so that I can check.

Thanks

----- I've now managed to get the installer to work properly on the second computer but I still don't know why it wouldn't work originally. i did overwrite some of the orig files but all is now well. keep up the good work guys. -----

Can one have just the futures damn map after the season rather than at the beginning them to test and training ?

DM 2.5 have bug and bad weapon.

[kgb (at work)]

I got mayor problems with the new update.
First off when I host, it kicks ppl off the server if they click to fast to pick a gun  
When I host in GHR itself no problems i can even see the new guns, when I host in GR no new guns at all.
What do i do, and pls don't tell me to reinstall Ghr, because i really don't feel like spending to much time reinstalling AGAIN.
thank U.

[Civrock]

KGB, could it be that you have more than one installation of GhR on your comp? check if GR opens the right one with the mappack... in the GR prefs.

[Revolt]

i get like white textures on new guns (IT GUNS).....similar to the white texture faces that use to occur....and no gun sounds for IT guns////
See ara and Sab,,i thought 2.5 was a nice update....but it seems when one little thing is wrong with update and you get slaughtered with ridicule...

I think its great...the guns and stuff need work but lets work on 2.6??? fix all the details..if you need me im back in effect and will be able to work on it....

[KGB]

Correctomundo civic.

it was indeed a different copy that GR used.  I forgot all about that one.
Seems to work fine now.
Sorry to bother you with my noobish ways ;-)

the new mappacks and updates don't touch the old original weapon datas (like the OICW with GL) at all.

i don't let myself insult like that from some 12-year-old in GameRanger private messages. you think i'm against you and do everything against you although i helped you so often with BL stuff already... there's something new you want/ask me almost every day... paranoid? i expect an apology, until then you stay blocked, Stripes.[/color]

To avoid problems installing the 2.5 Update, I recommend you guys that are getting booted do the following:

Request for the new update to be sent to your desktop....

Open you destination folder and manually drop the new updates in there, press rewrite all if asked...and you're done... now you know that the new files are in the right folder.

That's how I did it and it worked fine.
