Rainbow Six : Vegas

Anyone .. please

I have one but there is a wonderful bug where only 1 person can join a server at a time (read about it in UBI's forums before I tried to create a server). I created the server exactly as they said, a friend joined the server and I tried to join and it says connection failed. Not sure if dedicated server are even a possibility with this patch. I will cruise the UBI forums for a fix.

 

Another thing is the command line needs to be different for every single user so you will have to do the overwrite default command line.

 

Also requires 2 files from a local install

 

C:\Windows\system32\d3dx9_31.dll

C:\Windows\system32\xinput1_3.dll

 

I assume these are directx9 files. In conclusion it is a horrible effort of dedicated server files.

Sounds like its more of a hassle than its worth to host this game. Maybe someday UBI will learn to be GSP friendly and offer a standalone dedicated server

Lets hope so

 

Was it patch 1.5 you tried Vet?

[JasonF]

Yep. Still working on getting it done. Some people in the UBI forums got it working by doing what UBI said and others had to use the old ini file. When I get it working I will post my TCAdmin config.

[Guest jardin_101]

ok, sounds good Vet. Will you be able to give me your instructions to get it working if you need certain files like .ini files.

vetwebhosting, The issue your having with only one player being able to join is from either a bad commandline or something in one of your configs.

 

RB6Vegas is a challenge to configure and run as you have already noticed. If you want to shoot me an email I'd be happy to give you a hand.

[JasonF]

I appreciate the help Rich. One of your customers in UBI's forums had to use the old ini file and old R6Vegas_server.exe to get it work.

[Defcon|Rich]

I'm aware of the customer your referring to. We reconfigured the server for them to work with the update, The information they provided on the ubi forums is 1/2 correct. They have no access to change which .exe or config gets loaded and mistakenly assumed their fix corrected the problem. In reality we did a minor edit on the commandline to use the right variables and it worked fine.

 

The new .ini works just fine also. The old and new ones are pretty much the same, The only difference is the new config has notes next to each setting explaining what each does. If you take a close look you will see nothing has changed.

[JasonF]

Thanks for the info. I was going to try their fix but was waiting for direct2drive to contact me with a new CD key.

 

Emailing now.

I just sent my command line to Rich, but he didn't answer me! Can some one help me? I have the 1 player only problem.
