Plutonium

OK. thanks!

Thanks a lot. I hope that someone else can also support me with the ping

Hello guys I'm wondering if there is a way to keep an eye on the ping and FPS value during a match. Is it possible to keep it on screen?

When I try to join a friend's match with the direct "connect IPnumber" command, the game loads all the loading bar and at the end a message comes out : "Awaiting connection x" where the "x" is a counter that after almost 30 seconds goes in timeout and the game crashes. The strange thing is that

• the other friends of mine can join the match
• I've opened all the needed ports and deactivated firewall and antivirus software
• I can easily join the public servers
• I can launch a private match with no issues.

Any idea?

OK, if you confirm me that it's an issue related to the too low performing graphics card... I'll try lower graphics settings. Thanks for the support!!!

GeForce 9600GT 1GB RAM

I thought also about it, but the memory seems not to exceed critical levels:

The PC specs below (sorry in italian )

During the map loading, the game crashes. Here below the screenshot of the 2 error messages that I received (to be more detailed, this refers to the loading of the map Seatown).

First I get this:

and after some seconds this:

Exception Code: 0xE06D7363
Exception Address: 0x76382CA2

And after another couple of seconds all the windows, included the prompt window disappeared.

I wanted also to attach the .dmp file as requested by the error message but I realized that it was empty (0kb).

Any idea what could it be?

thank you guys!!!

I'm wondering which is the file where the progresses of the character are contained. In case of need to cancel and reinstall Plutonium I could make a backup-copy of that file to avoid loosing all the levels gained.
Any idea?

If I jump in a server with 1 friend I would like to play with him. But when I click on "change team" there is only the option to "auto-assign". How to force to play with him in the opposite team?

Before the update I was used to host custom games and let my friends connect with the command line "command myip:port".
Is this procedure still working and identical to the past? because yesterday I tried it but nothing happened in my friends' computer.

Xerxes wait, I' not sure to have understood... Are those all players connecting to the server? Because in case nobody comes into my server, I should see no IP numbers pinging with me. Have I understood correct?

Xerxes could you screenshot me a "right" working prompt window? So I know what I should see...
I confirm that no ping comes even after minutes... Just this 2 lines repeated several times.
Thank you!

FragsAreUs so you mean write the command line "connect myip:port" in the mainpage of the game? And the same also for my friends I suppose. Correct?

Dss0 Still not working: I changed the server port to 4977 as you mentioned, but theserver still doens't appear in the list. Both ports are forwarded, firewall and antivirus are temporary disabled to esclude also this variable.

I don't really undestand what could it be.

The prompt of the server shows this:

Is it right? I remember that before the update it was showing also some IP numbers...

FragsAreUs ok on win10 I can launch the .bat file, but it has a strange behaviour (at least different than before the update). The prompt says something like:

Sending heartbeat
Heartbeat successful
Sending heartbeat
Heartbeat successful
...

(the text could be slightly different, I've not the monitor in front of me...)

So it seems to work... But then I cannot find my server in the server list.

What could be wrong?

PS: I'm using the same computer for hosting and playing,... Could it be an issue?

FragsAreUs thank you, I'll try with a more recent OS.

HannesC Nope, when I try to install the Directx SDK package you linked me, a warning says that I've already a more recent or equivalent version, and the installation is not needed. But XINPUT1_4.DLL still missing...
