PROTOCOL ERROR

(eD|DiSORdER.) #1

Some days ago, 80% of my servers i usually go on starting giving me a real weird error (Protocol Mismatch - see screenshot). The i heard about the patch 1.02, i download and installed it. Some servers started working, but most (i’d say 80%) still gives me the same weird error! Looks i’m the only one getting it, since those servers with the error have already players in…

I browsed the forums to try to find an answer to my question but i didn’t find any :frowning:

If you have updated your E.T. maybe that’s the problem, and if you not… also =P.

The screenshot shows a incompatible version Server/client. so, maybe the server is running the updated version of E.T. and you not. (or viceversa).

It’s because not all servers have updated to 1.02

So the servers that were giving you the message before u updated were running 1.02 and the ones u are trying to connect now (after you’ve updated) are still running the earlier version
:banghead:

No, some servers has v1.02 in the name, and some that were giving the error before i installed still do…

Is it happenning to someone else?

Will there be an auto-upgrade function so everybody has the same version?

Is there a way to find only 1.02 servers?

Depending on your server browser, you may be able to filter servers by protocol. 1.02 is protocol 83, 1.01 is protocol 82. Check through your server browser’s options and look for a protocol setting.
