(ThaMasta) #1

hi guys ! first… sorry for my bad english i am french !

Ok so, i got a problem whit my XP save, im on 2.60b NQ 1.2.7 on linux base, hosted by GameServers.com

ALL people can leave the server and come back again and the XP was saved all the time… but not mine… each time i leave my xp turn back to 0 , i have try to install a new installation of wolfenstein whit another nick name, fail again, i have try to install wolfenstein to my other computer whit another different nick name, fail again.

My curent XPSAVE Config is :
set g_XPSave “15”
set g_XPSaveDirectory “nq/xpsave”
set g_XPSaveFile “xpsave.cfg”
set g_XPSaveMaxAge 99999999
set g_XPDecay 0
set g_XPDecayFloor 540
set g_XPDecayRate 0
set g_maxXP 1000000

So anyone got an idea to fixe my xp problem please ?

i have another bug too… I leave at Montreal in canada, and the Geoip give me an american flag … im not american … i got some friend playing whit me and all got her canadian flag… its really strange what is happening to myself…

Another question, my last mod is NQ1.1.1 … then now i dont know why my nade do not kill me… can someone link me the code line please ?

Some idiot bug… exemple in Caen2 , we cannot destroy the gate and the bridge whit dynamite or satchel… and im sure we got this bug in some other maps…

Thanks alot and really sorry for my english, i do my best ! Lol

Have a nice Day !!

Hi there,

  • Do a search in etconsole.log file for G_xpsave_add’ - it should tell you why writing xp data fails
  • Update the geoip.dat file to latest version
  • Start with a plain 1.2.7 NQ install. Make sure there are no custom weap files or custom map scripts on the server (maybe inside pk3s). Don’t use old custom pk3s.

G_xpsave_add: saved xp for ^4*^7Bros^4*^7Tha^4M^7asta
ClientDisconnect: 0, IP: 96.20.162.125:6, name: “BrosThaMasta”
G_xpsave_load: invalid guid “unknown”

my only one bug now is that xp save strange bug… still only my xp dont want to saved!

thanks for your reply :slight_smile:

it’s not recognizing your guid. most of the time this happens because punkbuster is disabled for the client. ensure that you have cl_punkbuster set to 1 as without it there will be no guid for xpsave to use.

i have try to enable my punkbuster, doing XP , disconnect, reconnect… still have 0 xp when im comming back ! anyway i dont know why PB can affect this, my server have not punkbuster… punkbuster is an idiot thing doing lag spike…

I am looking for a special thing, i want to add the VoteMap , you know what i mean ? the special thing allow player to vote for 3 map in the list, the map having the most vote is the next map loading… i have looking lot of time on the web and i dont see info of this… anyone know where i can take that ?

it’s on etpub only afaik (the map vote thing)
And you don’t need pb to have xpsave, but you need pb to get a guid assigned, without a guid your xpsave won’t work :wink:

This is what I thought (on etpub) …

For XP … I do not see what is the relationship with punkbuster … my server did not punkbuster, the XP is saved for everyone except me! anyway my punkbuster is active and it does not change anything … :rolleyes:

you need a GUID, punkbuster gives players guids, so you need enable it in order to get one.
XP is saved to players guids.

i know my english sux… i am french…

but im sure you can know this…

join a punkbuster enabled server, make sure you get a guid

(ThaMasta) #11

lol thats work! but is really weird!

Thanks:eek::cool:

the client has to communicate with the punkbuster master server at least once to create a proper guid
