Nope no joy. Am still trying though

[Gotteshand]

Hi. Unfortunately no, it gave up and stop it without TCadmin

[Amadeux]

Looks like we aren't the only ones. Maybe the devs will not require a video card in future updates (1.0)

[numpty]

@amadeux. Where does it state that it doesn't require a graphics card in future. Also. If anyone playing it in general have you noticed any bugs with the trees. I recorded this

I read their steam page for Dedicated Servers. It has a ton of people with the resolution problem. They didn't allow -nographics and it boots to a black console screen that fails on my servers.

If your server is running from a desktop type box and has graphics ability then it should boot normally. A big black screen is normal, if process completes there is a heart icon bottom left.

 

If your server is a blade or dedicated box system (ie 1u, 2u 4u etc...) then it does not have the correct grahpics capabilty. It would post a pop message re directx therefore not able to run.

 

If it is first option make sure directx is updated and your graphics drivers are the latest.

 

There is no -nographics or -batchmode option for theforest and looking like devs don't want to set it that way.

DirectX is installed, I believe it is the default generic graphics driver installed on this server.

 

It will run under Remote Desktop but when running through TCAdmin it can't get the required resolution.

[numpty]

I get the. Same as you amadeux. I can run a manual Server. Or use the runas tcagame command. And it boots fine. But via tcadmin. Nothing. Get the resolution error. It needs to be fixed. Soo. Or a workaround found

Sorry guys, same as you. Thought I had been running from tcadmin but it wasn't. Have tried many things but comes back to resolution error. (-batchmode got one step further but end up with **crash**).

[numpty]

same -batchmode or -nographiocs cause crashes

[jungleNZ]

There is something in tcadmin that seems to not run the cmd.exe window properly. When running from files cmd window opens and starts processing info before black screen pops up. Running tcadmin cmd runs but does not show any info as previous. Logs show display error. "STRANGE".

 

Is there any way to stop tcadmin running the program in the ISD (intergrative services detection) background it does. ie having it show on standard desktop area.
