My Mod is not loading on some Windows Xp systems.

(Madscientist) #1

hi all :slight_smile:

I’m making a mod and it seems to have problems to load on some winXP systems.
It loads fine on all other systems (I got WinXP myself). My mod has both server and client changes. In this case the client dll won’t load, resulting to the default.

Some friends on which the Mod wouldn’t load have already tried :

-Install a clean ET with patch 1.02 and pb. Didn’t work.
-REInstall WinXP with sp1 and all other new updates. Didn’t work.

I also tried differents paks using various achieving tools. Didn’t work.

If anyone is having same problem or if they have a solution, don’t hesitate to post :slight_smile:

I had this same problem, but I resolved it by setting the server variable sv_pure to 1

boah that’s a basic thing when testing a mod … sv_pure 0 (not 1)
btw i advice you to create a copy of your ET folder as a testing-ET and unpack all those standard-pk3s and delete them after. then you can easier work with ET when trying something out.

Thx for those replies guys :slight_smile:

But really :slight_smile: I had sv_pure to 1
Only some people seem to have this problem and they all had winXp as OS.

Ok my friend seem to have found the problem :slight_smile: He installed .net framework SDK and all went fine.

@ mgt, sv_pure 0 didn’t work here :frowning:

those systems are likely missing the vc7 runtime dlls, those get shipped with the .net framework sdk, or you could supply them seperately.
