VROC won't work

by Gertjan Westene » Tue, 12 Jan 1999 04:00:00

Hi,

I'm new to this online racing, but I read all the info at VROC carefully
(and downloaded the core.ini) and tried to join some games. GPL starts up
normally, I then try to join within GPL the TCP/IP game, and then a status
window opens in which it says it's trying to connect and after that I get the
message: 'server incompatible'. And when I try to host a game via VROC GPL
crashes when I try to start the host game. Without VROC GPL works ok with
TCP/IP connections....

Anybody any idea what might be the problem?

Regards,

Gertjan.

Hi Gertjan,

VROC is working, its just that you might be one of the people in Europe that
received GPL 0.2.0.0.

Everyone else has version 1.0.0.0.  Check the lower right of the opening screen
for the version number.  If it says anything other than 1.0.0.0 -- that's the
problem.  As for the solution, contact Papyrus/Sierra.

Jason.

Seems you're right! Is does say GPL.0.2.0.0 in my opening screen. And since
I'm Dutch I might indeed be 'one of those people in Europe'
Thanks for the info!

I'm also "one of those people in Europe" who has got a 0.2.0.0 version of
GPL. And I have the same problem getting through to VROC. What else there is
to know about this version's peculiarities, anybody?

then a status
problem?
