... you get the point of that

and this

Unable to open configuration file config/servers.cfg
Server Shutdown: reading gameservers
Execution aborted due to: Unable to open configuration file config/servers.cfg

I dont know where to get that file or I would. And as I said go easy its my first time ever useing POL

For some reason or another the latest version of the scripts doesn't have that file.

All it needs to be is

Code: Select all

under gameserver place your IP.

"For some reason or another the latest version of the scripts doesn't have that file."

It`s in folder C:\pol\special\servers

However,I`m having probs trying to connect using UORice.
The Pol is running in dos window ok,but the listening port 2593 encryption is 2.0.0 and will not change to UORice.
Have changed the ClientEncryptionVersion=uorice in pol.cfg

Using the no_crypt client it asks which server ie local/ip/gameserver,but locks up after you choose.
Also the dos window registers the connection but without the login name.

Any help appreciated

I always use the WoD version of the client. I never could get UO Rice to connect right, it would just hang. That is of course if your using the WoB scripts.

Thanks for the reply Simon.

I am using WoD scripts...but the WoD login.cfg alas, eludes me as I`m not a member of the Shard.
(*Grins* so slow in typing I`m afraid for a RP shard.)

The answer has to be in WoD accepting UORice instead of 2.0.0. or maybe that GMS.cfg in the pol/special folder has something to do with it.(Needs myutil.inc...which is in the WoD login.cfg).

I`ll just have to dig a bit deeper.
Thanks

UO rice only works up to version 4.x.x im not sure what the 4.x.x is but i know i am over it.

This isn't a RP shard so go ahead and join, trust me its worth it

Unencrypted clients higher than 4.0.0e will not connect to a POL server unless you modify uoclient.cfg to read:

Code: Select all

EnableFlowControlPackets       0

This will mess up boat travel graphics, but not too badly IMHO.

Have changed the ClientEncryptionVersion=uorice in pol.cfg

I didn't know uorice was a valid value for that. I know that UO Rice worked after I put 'ignition' there.

(UO rice only works up to version 4.x.x im not sure........)

Yes,I`ve heard something similar.I`ll maybe try without updating AoS.

(This isn't a RP shard...)

* Grins * I`m going to consider it now,no promises tho.

* * * *

(Unencrypted clients higher than 4.0.0e will not connect to a POL server unless...)

As above.Will however try modifying uoclient.cfg first (The easy option * laughs*).Thanks for that info.

(I didn't know uorice was a valid value for that. I......)

Here`s info from another pol.cfg installation :
#
# ClientEncryptionVersion: The client encryption version
# Supported values: 1.26.4 2.0.0 ignition uorice none
ClientEncryptionVersion=ignition

I did try with all other values with all the same outcome,never changed.However this was after I unencrypted with UORice.I`ll maybe try on a new install of AoS with encryption.

Thanks All.

-------------------------------------------------
UPDATE

Finally I have it working which maybe will clear up some points mentioned in these posts.

I`m running W2K pro btw
Did a clean install of AoS - nothing else.

Found that UO login.cfg had to have the ip and the port ie 127.0.0.1,2593 otherwise it locks up.

When using UORice then ClientEncryptionVersion=2.0.0 must be changed to ClientEncryptionVersion=uorice or ignition in pol.cfg otherwise locks up.

I patched the game to the latest ver 4.0.2b after I found everything working and lo and behold,that works too.
So UORice,Pol,WoD all work with the latest patch.(* smiles* Well,does on my system.)

Thanks everyone for your input,much appreciated,maybe catch you in Brit bank...or not.
