Game dlls not loading

(Jan) #1

Heya,

I’ve got a small, wel rather big problem. The game dlls are not loading! Help!
I’ve got the mod directory correctly, the dlls are in mp_bin.pk3 and outside.

I know the mod launches correctly because fs_game is set to testmod and it loads the testmap in the testmod directory. It isn’t in etmain.

/fs_game says it is using testmod as the mod dir

BUT

/gamename says it is running etmain

Everything works except for the game dlls and it is frustrating! GRRR

Even more funney, it works perfectly for somebody else I know.

Here is my shortcut:

F:\games\ET\ET.exe +set fs_game testmod +sv_cheats 1 +sv_pure 0 +r_fullscreen 0 +set g_gametype 2

check ‘testmod’ folder set correct place. it must place like this f:/games/et/testmod
and check qagame*.* 's place

testmod is in the correct place. Et loads the mod as it can load the maps. The dlls just aren’t getting loaded.

The dlls are in the testmod directory and in a mp_bin.pk3 which is also in testmod

testmod/stuff.pk3
testmod/mp_bin.pk3
testmod/*.dll

no .so files

This is what I get when it starts loading game assets:

console snippet:
F:\games\ET estmod est_demo_assets.pk3 (105 files)
F:\games\ET estmod est_demo2.pk3 (20 files)
F:\games\ET estmod est_demo1.pk3 (20 files)
F:\games\ET estmod\mp_bin.pk3 (3 files)
F:\games\ET/testmod
F:\games\ET\etmain\pak0.pk3 (3725 files)
F:\games\ET\etmain\mp_bin.pk3 (4 files)
F:\games\ET/etmain

Now comes the weird stuff:

------- Game Initialization -------
gamename: etmain

It still loads etmain dlls.

arrgh

Maybe ur dlls can’t load for theses reasons:

1st: the memory used by ur static & global datas are to large to fit the VM available space.
2th: ur dls have some depencies to other dlls (MSVCRT71.DLL if u use VS.NET 2003 or MSVCRT70.DLL if u use VS.NET v1.0). Theses externals dll are missing or fail also to load.

and if ur dll can’t be loaded, ET engine load ETmain dll instead urs.
