I can't replay TADS... help?

[teawoody]

I have a CLEAN install of XP SP2

Installed TA fropm All-In-One installer
Opened up a tad in recorder

Selected TCP/IP (as per usual), only difference from the old days is there's Warzone server and IPX (?) connection to choose from

Unticked Auto Enable 3dTA


Next screen shows 3 players with START TA button (as per usual), nothing is posting tho in the blank box (i recall it does i think)

START TA

...Searching

Then instead of showing a 'battleroom' which si the tad, it crashes back to the in-game server selection list (tcp, warzone, model, lan etc).

IT DOES THIS EVERY TIME... Can anyone sort this shit out?

It's either, The all In One installer orrrrr..... Fucking new Warzone.

Any ideas?

click on the tcp/ip and delete the ip address that is entered in.

Yea woody this happened to me when i used the all in 1 installer also..


Uninstall, Then go here - d-gun.com/filez

Then download ta1.iso

Mount it with this program www.magiciso.com/tutorials/miso-magicdisc-history.htm

Then download CC and the units, patch etc from dgun/filez and slot them into TA folder like normal

hmm thats kind of weird, it didnt happen to me... and i have same os and service pack as woody

maybe its a error with the recorder registry? when it asked you to fix registry entry, did u click yes?

THANKS ANDREW!! =)
It works fine now.... I think this is somethignt hat could persist in others though... maybe we should make a sticky topic for those having issues??

[teawoody]

Scratch what I said...
Issues started again
Same as before
Sigh

lol woody. Thinking back this is exactly what happened to me. When i fixed it, it stopped working again. And yea i also thought it might have been because of the recorder patch so I formatted then ran the all in 1 and clicked no the next time. Didnt work tho

In the end i had to just format then install TA normally (with the iso or origional CD) then it will work.. cos it always worked that way for you im sure.
