Title: [Archive - News] Public testing!
Post by: VRocker on December 12, 2008, 06:09:52 pm

Its been a while since any news was updated on the site, and i guess many of you are thinking whether or not the project is dead.... well its not!

Seeing as its nearly christmas and i'm in a happy mood lately, i've decided to open up testing to the public!
We've been having semi-public tests the last few nights and it seems stable enough to open up to everybody.
Few things to note though...

• This is nowhere near finished, so expect bugs of all kinds... including bad sync and random crashes
• Idiots will be kicked/banned for being... well an idiot
• This is meant for fun aswell as testing, so please have fun! :)
• Vehicles are only in by a basic way, so sync can be pretty bad at times, aswell as vehicles exploding when they shouldn't. This will be fixed soon
• The code is being updated all the time, so before entering a server please check if theres a new build first
• Please report any crashes and their offsets, aswell as any additional information that could help in tracking down and fixing the bug
• Please dont complain about any bugs or crashes, like i said, this is nowhere near complete
• No cheating/using mods! Anybody found using these will be banned

I will be setting up a bug tracker shortly so please use that once its up.
Bug tracker is up. Please register and report all problems at http://mantis.liberty-unleashed.co.uk (http://mantis.liberty-unleashed.co.uk)

Anyway... on to the links!

Client (http://liberty-unleashed.co.uk/OhMyShit!/LU.zip) - Extract these files to your GTA3 directory and run LU.exe.

Notes:

• You must have a v1.1 GTA3.exe in order to play.
• If the game fails to launch, you may need to install this (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=200b2fd9-ae1a-4a14-984d-389c36f85647&displaylang=en)
• Please remember to use a clean GTA3 (no mods)

Server: binary-bits.net
Port: 2301

Oh and theres an echo channel up at #lu.echo on GTANet

Enjoy!

LU works on the Steam version of GTA3 for anybody who cares to know. So no need to get your self a CD copy if you already have GTA3 installed through Steam!

Just a reminder to players...

This is a TEST. i've seen players asking why is there a new dll, why is it laggy, the desync is bad etc...

I am doing my best to fix the issues but i cant fix everything straight away. most things are very trivial to fix.

Also, please remember to update your dlls. The new server will stop you connecting with the old dll.

If it asks to update your dll, please go here http://liberty-unleashed.co.uk/OhMyShit!/d3d8.zip (http://liberty-unleashed.co.uk/OhMyShit!/d3d8.zip)

Also, please remember to report bugs and crashes. If i dont know about them, how can i fix them?

Thank you

Is the beta server is turned off?
(I have a new DLL)

Title: Re: Public testing!
Post by: VRocker on December 17, 2008, 03:33:00 pm

The server is still on. Old DLLs wont be able to connect at all anymore due to an update in RakNet.

Please update your dll again

I installed the new dll and the server started to work again today but I can not connect to it. Today when I try to go see him: "You failed connect to server" push for new libraries does not help ...

Server is currently crashy due to some script function gone wrong. currently in the process of finding why its crashing.
Server should be on sometime tonight or atleast tomorrow

Okay I understand.
VRocker I have a problem. The server has been added registration. Someone has registered my nickname ( [PM]MaRiO93 ) to take me to anger. It is possible that I can sign up for this nickname?

Now my account work.
