Clausewitz

ok...to point it out even clearer: some days ago, a pseudo nicknamed crush was inlobby-chat. i asked the same admin/mod dutchie asked, for please doing something....because that pseudo-nicknamed-crush....was so bad behaving. i didn't get ANY answer, although mod was online (by like: 5sec before an action or writing) and NOTHING happened. so. again. i wanna ASK: what is the issue here? i get both: a bit of trolling is part of the game. but there are red-lines to not-cross. and if crossed, somebody needs do something. where are those folks, who do something then? (members of dutchies team told me, he wants to skip RA furthermore, because of all this..................... he wasn't been seen for 5days now, before that, he was a great upcoming talent with lotsa improving very fast)

.... i was asked for help by dutchie. after he tried for 2 days to get ANY admin for help and POSTED it here. then again he messanged all available admins in-lobby, except one, none answered him. the one who answered said: he was no admin, which was a lie. i don't name names here. no need to. i have NO CLUE why nobody answered him or helped him. netherlands is small country. and this insults are just way-way-way-beyond tolerable. imagine: with IP it s ezz to find out the street or neighborhood u live + combine with such a level of harassment? wow. WOW. i first decided to not take sides. i thought, others would do their job as admins/mods..... but NOT?! day after day nothing happens. untrue. i don't know, what funky has in mind here? if he knows, what is sometimes going on? or if he stopped caring after #crush_issue. but..... we all as an active community need some problem-solvers here. either better mods. or more mods. or something. but honestly. to let someone newcoming like dutchie stand alone with such bad shit against him.... i really don't get it.

a) mouse light-speed: it seems, that your mouse sensitivity is much too high, so is then your scroll-speed. try this: 1. to change in RA1-settings mouse sensitivity to the 3rd mark from the left-side regarded. AND/OR 2. maybe the option "adjust scroll speed to sensitivity" on-off can help also. AND/OR 3. check your general windows-mouse-settings, could be much too speedy as well. AND/OR 4. "mouse-fix" on-off, if u experienced mouse-issues but therefore.... often your resolution can affect that also. so which res do u use?

http://www.pic-upload.de/view-31882871/fehler2.jpg.html is a pic of a client-ERROR, a new one.... never had it before. after it cncnet crashed. thanks god u know german lolol.

a typical answer. either post the link here, or not. don't make some secret adventure out of it. i won't reply. GG and play clean.

long long time, officially, escort was in no certain use. supposedly unusable, now another option is: escort buildings hehehe http://www.ra1guides.com/2016/10/auto-building-defense-via-escort.html /url]

thanks funky. i knew this guide, but wasn't sure about its origin. thought, maybe there was a deleted one as well. thanks anyway for posting

yoyo gents n ladies. some time ago, i heard about ehy had an awesome guide, connected to cncnet. unfortunately, i wasn't able to find it via research here...or elsewhere. so i would like to ask, if somebody knows..... WHERE is his guide? ^^deleted by himself like his youtube-vids? but, some of them got saved as well, and are now published encore. I would consider it a phenomenal contribution to RAhistory, if somebody whom have it, would make it open accessible. :ivan: Cheers cheers.

yes, much less often before. didn't happen in august, but started often like last week. + have another error: http://www.pic-upload.de/view-31688603/spieldateien-error.jpg.html like: randomly when a game is starting, this shows up in game-lobby. then the program restarts itself (of without i changed some game settings lol). occurs often since last week as well

http://www.ra1guides.com/2016/09/new-map-r4-ribbon-unlimited.html :heady:

since 2-3days, oftenly when i start a game.... screen is totally white and doesn't change (including cmd-leave tab and become, MAC-"windows-button"-version) unfortunately i cannot send a error-file, there is none. none of my settings i ve changed. maybe came with one of the recent patches. dunno.

yes funky, confirmed. straight before error, my cursor freezed very strangely lol -- so was it, the mouse, effecting it.

tested now tibsun. worked very well. didn't notice any kind of delay, mouse issue or something else.

1. i highly recommend for specialK version2 for testing, because so far, using it for about 1 week i have had ONLY ONE exe-crash :DD 2. the white screen, when starting a game, occurred 2-3times only. this is as well much better than the porting kit version was! on porting kit like every 30-40th game started with white screen = needed to been closed. no cmd-back option - i tried it all 3. however, i know 2 MACusers without my exe-problems, for them is porting kit much better, than the version before. Reasons are better connectivity and game-stability. i recommended for both to use porting kit like 2-3months before. and both are very happy. maybe i could ask them, to test version2 as well. 4. porting kit also had other mouse integration issue: like in 1/150-200 games, mouse cursor just was away LOL. sometimes came back, sometimes after 10min. haha. by the way: the white-box now of version2 is not really a huge thing. double click it away solves it. 5. CRATESissue: on the map 800x600 is a huge bug concerning the crate "dark earth", which turns the shroud of map on again. If a players takes that crate, INSTA-crash in 95% of cases lol. Maybe both issues could be dealt combined by an option in game-lobby settings: "activate/deactivate crates Fix" - which could turn on off "bomb" and "dark earth" crates ) 6. last but not least, i had yesterday about 10 other nicks inlobby hahahahah many people reported it to me my nickname gets viral XD i prefer to report this, for not being accused for impersonating. one team member even was really convinced (when i was OFFline) that i played with another nick an Arena with them......... O_o

another player reported as well: http://www.pic-upload.de/view-31460378/MajicClausi.png.html i am getting a multiple personality...... O_o

http://www.pic-upload.de/view-31459745/CNC.png.html ora-boy reported this strange new name-changing-glitch to me. i was as well registered as ora-aek, and he as me lol. maybe it comes from the testings today - have no clue

ya, lets continue here. because we re the only testers anyway lol. new reports: versions4-8 have NOT the same mouse problem in regards of cursor doubling or bad integration, BUT they all have an enormous delay in scrolling through map. i had to change the scrolling option to highest level to make it playable. but even then u will have a short delay - and not a high speed scrolling u might imagine there should be. add: i think specialK is using a very high res, like most tib-sun-players. so this scroll-delay he wouldn't even notice ^^but just a guess. well i tried on 800x and when there is a scroll delay on highest scroll-rate, 640x ´d be even worse. and: versions4 and 8 surprised me with a exe-error even in the 1st test-skirmish LOL so they may be high corrupted with the error. but this is also just a guess. (tib-sun on version 2 i will test later, and report)

ha! actually i saved the exe-error from version2 :DDDDDDDDD --> here the data: Unhandled exception: page fault on write access to 0x00000000 in 32-bit code (0x005d9077).
