Until I get the time and money to upgrade I will return.

The operating system is really solid.
I have had Geek squad look it over as well. As well ensured me I have nothing to worry about with the ssd so maybe it is setup specially or they lied no biggie.
I only use the VPN's to switch up my network traffic every 3 days.
Yeah you could say I am tired of doing this.

If it were up to me I would downgrade to windows 95 as I prefer the look and feel of the os. Vista I hated as game saves deleted, some might remember what I am talking about.

I am going to see what I can do os wise and I want to stay away from linux as I have never been able to get packages to work due to broken links in the commands ( Its been a nightmare )

I upgraded my internet after the divorce. So I will no longer need all of my DSL Modem's etc so I can sell them as well I will probably sell the ssd and my keyboard as well speakers and monitor as I know a local flee market, not the greatest hardware there but I can get by, Then I could buy an updated os, but I prefer to see what I can do first.

Yeah, I am turning 26 in December, I have had this OS disc and played GGM with it good times 

I hope that React OS
http://www.reactos.org/
Is LU compatible. Maybe not. But the OS is what I am used to and it is more of a preference thing.

1. Don't trust Geek Squad. I've learned that these guys are a joke and follow a script with no actual knowledge of what they are doing. They just have basic "debugging" knowledge from their training they receive when hired. (I've turned down several past employment offers from them because of this).

2. Why every 3 days? Unless you are working for a government on highly-classified material, or you are doing something very illegal, there's no need for this.

3. Every Windows OS has a Classic theme that emulates the Windows 9x one. Downgrading would be a horrible idea. Anything Windows 98 and below can't even handle a CPU over 2GHz natively without a hard-to-get hotfix. You can also say goodbye to multi-core or hyperthreading support.

4. I can't blame you on the Linux thing. Many people here will probably disagree with us, but I personally think Linux's package system is total Hell to deal with. Installing dependencies has been nothing but frustrating for me in some of the most basic setups. Help is also hard to come by for people new to Linux, as many generic commands don't work on every flavor available out there.

5. Why sell the SSD? They are still worth quite a bit these days. I doubt you'll get much for it at a flea market. You can still use it even if you upgrade too. I'm running Windows 10 on one right now, with a secondary HDD holding all my games.

6. LU is probably not directly compatible with ReactOS, but it is worth a try.

Locked as per the original poster's request.

To force someone to update there operating system is a little outrageous as you would not believe what I do to keep my PC threat free on windows XP for the past decade.

1. You are not being forced to do anything.
2. You just said it yourself. You are going through Hell and back to keep your system secure. That is the EXACT reason XP support was dropped, and not just by LU, but by Microsoft themselves...THE PEOPLE THAT CREATED IT.

If you are unable to afford a simple upgrade for your system, that is truly unfortunate, but that is also a personal issue. Windows XP came out 15 years ago. Let me reiterate that. 15 YEARS AGO. (I was 11 years old then. I'm 26 now). If you haven't upgraded your system at all in that time, then you should probably put some focus toward that. If you cannot afford to do so, then your focus should not be on gaming at all, but other things in your life which obviously need your financial support more.

I agree that it sucks to have to be in that position, but there is plenty you can do to resolve it on your end. The choices you make to do so are completely up to you, however.

Well I am currently running my os on a ssd, on the ssd I have it setup so the operating system can not be modified, as well added to..

Currently I have 10 different VPN's to help connect my internet traffic to a safer source then back to me.

I know the entire build of Windows xp on the hard drive and know if something is out of place.

AD block extension on the browser helps a lot to prevent any nasty hijackers.
The computer itself runs very clean and boots up instantly.
Having a Quad core overclocked really helps with that.
No reason to really fragment the hard drive as often as other users as I have a ssd.  I just do it anyway to help maintain the speeds of getting files from the storage sata drive.

There is more, but secretes are not secrets when it comes to security if released. 

I do plan to update and I am not bothered by the release of LU I am actually proud.
I hope to see more updates even if there is bugs,,.

1. That is impossible. Your Operating System has to write temporary files and make changes all the time. You also have to be able to save things to your system if you wish to use or change them. A SSD has absolutely nothing to do with that.

2. Having 10 VPN's isn't making yourself safer. That is just spreading your traffic wider. Having one or *maybe* two is reasonable. 10 is just beyond overkill. You are just murdering your internet speeds at that rate. Regardless, your traffic is just going to default to one VPN that is running, depending on whatever your system sees as the default connection at the time. This also has no effect on your Operating System whatsoever. This is a network configuration. If you are using third-party programs to do this, then you don't even need to save your network settings, which should be retained during an upgrade process anyway.

3. There are multiple versions of XP with different variations, service packs, and updates. I highly doubt you know every single piece of it. Not even the people who made it know it that well. That is why they have different teams with multiple people in each team. If you mean you have a general understanding of when something doesn't look right, it wouldn't be hard to learn the same with a new Operating System. Hell, if you learn Vista, you know everything up through 10, minus slight variations and modifications.

4. All of those features have nothing to do with your Operating System. They can all be applied to any OS you use, even ones outside of Windows. Also, don't ever defragment your SSD. It literally does nothing to it at all, and it is slowly depleting the drive's lifespan. Newer Windows OS'es will actually block you from doing so if they detect a SSD installed.

1 player online now, in pratice +/- 3 servers available. After update wasn't more than 10 players online. Great :|

People are trying. There are issues, and VRocker and the other Developers are trying to work them out, as are the people that are developing the servers themselves. Things like this inevitably happen. It takes time to fix.

I've installed what you said about,and after i solved my first problem i got another one with some as_ or au_ error,i don't know how it was written properly.The problem was my outdated windows
after i run setup for visual 2015 twice it keeps failing or it says the setup failed.And again i was searching on google for solutions and it shows up that i didn't have Windows Server Pack 1.It took me 2 or 3 hours to wait for installing,that's why i hate updating my windows and other things,because i'm struggling with errors since windows 7 was made.Anyway i solved all my problems and it doesn't appear anything after installing these 2 packages.The game running perfectly.
Thanks for your time and help vrocker :]

Set your computer to update on a regular basis, and install security software to keep malicious software off of there. That should prevent most of your issues in the future.

Where does it say invalid build? The server in a popup? The client in a popup? The server console? The client's message box?

You said windows xp wont be supported, what about windows vista?

The server *should* be working on Vista. (If I were you, I'd take advantage of that Windows 10 free upgrade before the end of July. Unfortunately this means you need a legal method of upgrading to Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 first in order to do it).

Use the Support board for issues!

PARTREASON_MEMORY_CHECK

It doesn't exist? The server seems to detect it internally itself. :O

Feck knows why the memory check times out. This on a linux server and how laggy are you? I might have to increase the time for the initial check.

I'm getting the memory check on the Windows server, locally-hosted, the moment I minimize my game.

You don't have permission to access /Downloads/lu-0.1-installer.zip on this server.
?

Known issue someone else reported too. I notified VRocker about it. All we can do now is wait.

Same for me

I noticed that too. I think it may be a new UAC feature that had an unintended consequence.


Make sure you guys report the bugs on the bug tracker!!!

I've passed along this topic to VRocker. Hopefully he can look into the issue soon.

0.1.0.17 is now out. We're going to have to be patient and wait for a changelog topic.

Does the changelog include the module API broken? My anticheat can't be loaded bcs this.
