    Interesting that you pick NOW to post a PW whine with all the posts and work currently being done on the PW. Me thinks you should read a few of the posts started by TB on what he has been doing. It may not be fast enough but at least it isn't another "we will get to it when we get to it" Come on back dust off your PW and participate as it isn't very often we get to help fix a broken race WHILE the changes are being made.

    Main reason why I have not posted till now is because I just plain have not been on the forums for quite awhile, hop on here and again, but I just cannot get myself to log in with how bad the PW was hit. I am really not complaining that much that they changed things, however the last time I was on it just plain hurt.

    I really not complaining as much as finally posting my opinion, I read a few days ago that they will not even consider custom changes compared to what it was, which in a way I agree with, to a certain degree, and that is what I was pointing out. Right now my computer is in many ways taking a shit, but have a new computer on the way and may end up logging in at some point when I get it.

    Edit: On a quick note, If the weapons actually fired at the rate that the delay says, not just capped at 1 shot per second, then the other nerf's would not hurt so bad as they do now, that is another reason why I have not had the desire to log in game.
  2. Rabid is unfortunately correct, a opinion poll will never make them change the way they have coded in the skills no matter how many people vote for it to change.

    You have better luck pulling a tiger tooth while its awake and alert.
    In the end its a hopeless gesture.

    I do know your pain however, I have totally quit the EMU due to the crippling skill changes, and will not be back unless things are changed back, which will never happen.

    Progen warrior is broken hardcore with these changes, I can understand not wanting soloing but in groups and raids they are worthless, and it was my favorite Race and class.

    So on that note, I am not even going to vote.

  3. This has been suggested about 10 times over, and has been said that this will not be considered or even put on the table till the game has hit beta or live as there is more important things that have to be done.

    Remember this is not even in Alpha stage yet.

    I did actually restart and tried to login, but couldn't once I got out. [b]I understand that we are still in Beta[/b], so it really isn't an issue. I have been a beta tester for many games, including this one before it went live.
    [/quote]

    Not true, this is actually not even close to beta as of yet. This is currently Stress Test #4, alpha testing is next then if we are lucky beta testing will come up after that. Its a sad but true fact, and you should expect lag, latency, and a major amount of bugs still in the game long before we will be full game. I would most likely expect this project to hit beta in about a year or so, and thats being generous.

    I must have done something wrong somewhere.
    The net7 launcher (if I tab twice at the ip dropdown) will not launch the client. It has the client targeted and all are running as admin, compatibility mode for windows 7, certificates are installed correctly, resolutions are correct and I'm racking my brain trying to figure this out. Maybe I need to start from scratch and reinstall the client, patch, and net7 in order to fix the problem.
    [/quote]

    Logane I think you are trying to hard.

    Ok a few simple questions:
    What is your resolution at right now?
    Is the Net7 launcher maximized?
    If the Net7 launcher is maximized, have you tried to double click the top to bring it to a smaller window?
    Do you have the target destination in the correct spot? IE: /release/client.exe
    Do you have client.exe and Net7proxie.exe in admin mode?

    Thats all I can think of, one other is for you to take a screen shot of your desktop with the net7 launcher opened, this will help tremendously.
  6. From what I see you should not be having any problems, you have more Base memory and graphics memory than my comp has, I only have 500meg ram and 64 meg graphics to work with.

    BTW you will prob like Avira better than AVG, I have been using this program for years and I say it is better than any other bought virus scanner out there to date.

    I dont think its your graphics drivers, I personally have not updated mine especially since I cant find em :P

    I suggest going back to a higher res than the one your using, and rerun your E&B setup. You might also want to check for the latest update to your network card.

    Is your computer using a hardline or wireless?

    As far as the processes that should be around 35, not sure what else you could be running, also on my main comp I run the game with virus scanner in standby mode as it tends to cause latency, but my second computer has it on when I play and has no latency.
    This may also be your problem, try playing with the virus program on standby and see what happens.
  7. Personally I think you might have a virus or some other malicious program running and bogging down your computer. If I was you I would run a few programs on your machine, one obviously would be a virus scanner (Can be free, Personally use Avira AntiVir), then a cleaner program such as CC cleaner (Can get free), now I would probably scan your system with Ad-aware (Free) or some other program.

    Also would be good to know your spec's, My computer is probably the lowest end PoS and have hardly any problems with the game.
  8. Ok since your using WinXP the main issue might be you need to run the config program.

    It should be located here:
    [b]C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Earth & Beyond\EBCONFIG\E&BConfig.exe[/b] (Original Config from EA)
    or
    [b]C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Earth & Beyond\EBCONFIG\Net7config.exe[/b] (Net7's version recommended for higher resolutions)

    This may solve your problems, might be other issues, if the config program does not work try this:

    Open your Net7 launcher then on the top Left click [b]Launcher->Reset Updates[/b].

    Also be sure you have either [b]Packet Optimization[/b] or [b]Prototype Reorder[/b] checked, [u]make sure none of the Debug options are checked.[/u]
  9. Is the only thing you installed was the Net7?
    You need to install E&B with the demo file. If you already did then your files are not fully installed and you will need to reinstall. You must Install that Demo file, patch and the Net7 files, then after you install the demo you open the Net7 on your desktop and target the file and folder I showed you.
    The Net7 should update fully then you can get in game.

    If your having trouble then goto the forum help section here: [url="https://forum.enb-emulator.com/index.php?/topic/714-install-enb-from-scratch-instructions-rev-7222010/"]Getting started[/url]

    Follow what they show there. The Getting started link will give you step by step instructions on how to get it working.
  10. I cant believe I did not see it before....
    I looked at your net7 picture closely and noticed you have it targeting a URL.

    Look closely on the top right and click browse then target this path:
    C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Earth & Beyond\[b]release\client.exe[/b]

    This is exactly your problem all along.
  11. I think I know what your problem is, First question is have you placed Client.exe and Net7proxie.exe on admin mode?

    If that does not work, Update your .net framework, this can cause the play/launch button to not appear.

    Now if yet again this dont work, the last resort is to download this: [url="https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B2L-IKw8x1jRZmU4ZWMyYTgtNzIyYS00YTEyLThmNGQtYjg3ODZmNDE3ZmJk&hl=en_US&authkey=CKG1994D"]Net7 Files[/url]

    Locate and delete your Net7 files, then extract these and copy the Net7 folder to the same location.

    If this dont work then a Dev will have to help you, however this has helped others to fix their issues but be forewarned it may not work.

    When you said NO on #3, couldn't they just have us pay a monthly charge to keep the servers running once the game is complete? It seems fair to me.
    [/quote]
    No they cannot charge a monthly fee due to the EULA and several other legal issues. In order for this game to be developed again and played it relies solely on donations alone.
    If they did do monthly fees there would be that fine line of making a profit, it can be considered a profit maker because a fee would be required to support development. Since the EMU team did not make the game itself it is not theirs and therefor cannot charge any type of fee to use the software.
    Donations is the only legal way and none of the Developers are allowed to earn a dime if they wish the game to be resurrected. If they were able to get EA games to hand over the license to the game and all the game research it would be a different story, but there is no way in hell EA would considering they have the option to make money again from this game title.
  13. [quote name='outfctrl' timestamp='1307018573' post='41531']
    Ok, to start off, I am legally challenged. My questions are:

    [b]#1[/b] Did EA let you recreate this great game?

    [b]#2[/b] Did you have to buy the rights to it?
    [/quote]
    [b]#1[/b] No, and there was no need to ask because they are not using the original server code. Everything that the Dev's have done here is perfectly legal. The reason is because all the coding that they have done is custom coding not the original server coding that EA was running.
    [b]#2[/b] No yet again. Since they developed their own server code to run the game they do not have to buy anything, Its the same reasoning as above.
    [quote name='outfctrl' timestamp='1307018573' post='41531']
    [b]#3[/b] Will it ever go public with subscriptions under a different developer?

    [b]#4[/b] Can EA stop the Devs from working on it?
    [/quote]
    No on #3.
    #4 Yes and no. At this time EA has no interest in this game or the project, I do believe they know about it, and if they do know about it they must think the project will not go anywhere.
    If the EMU Dev's were to do any type of subscriptions, Selling of In-game items via real money, or simply charging any type of fee that can generate a profit, EA can and will shut this project down.
    [quote name='outfctrl' timestamp='1307018573' post='41531']
    Maybe I missed all the info over the years, but you guys are the greatest bringing this back to us. I really want to see this project succeed and make it.

    I have my original beta disk and the final disks from the EA years ago. Are they any good or can be used for anything?

    Thanks all and sorry if I sound ignorant on these questions, but these questions have been swirling around in my mind since I became a part of this game quest.
    [/quote]

    Your Beta and Normal Disks are now just memorabilia, however im sure you could install the game from the normal ones but the easiest way is through the demo install.

    Hope this answered alot of your questions, a Dev is sure to see this and most likely answer as well.
  14. [quote name='Stelk' timestamp='1306814004' post='41442']
    Please do not wipe our items, since this was started by a player rant. This is a stress test, The devs need to be focusing on the big picture and not on how this might upset game balance! There is no game to balance, this game will be made clean and started again and again.. Simply let us have our fun, build and test, build and test.. We are out there to try all aspects of the game to see what causes issues, not to start a fight over an item! Heck how many toons on the game can even use an ss8 as we speak!
    [/quote]

    According to kyp the items may not get wiped, only drop and build lists.

    Cool your jets, I did it in response to his being a total ass. In hindsight, yes I was out of line, however you do not see him apologizing about his behavior. For one you dont see me charging out and telling people they are lower than a kindergartener, he was more out of line than I was.Personally I believe that if anyone should start a thread, they should put their opinion in a format people can read instead of clumping it in one paragraph.

    He did not think before he made the thread, and all I could see was him whining about not being able to get a drop, and personally I dont care what anyone thinks of me. I marked my opinion of what I read, I could only understand a portion of what hey was conveying in this thread.

    However [u]I will apologize for my second post[/u], but not the first which was legitimate answer to what he said.

    PS. By the way deleting your thread in hindsight did not help, already caught you.
  16. [quote name='Kenu' timestamp='1306784549' post='41414']
    It's a sticky situation but here's my reasons arguing for SS8's removal
    1. It wasn't supposed to be there because it was a developer mistake.
    2. It doesn't make sense for it to be there due to storyline.
    3. It has only been there a short while (where hulkfest was months and months ago)
    4. It's easy to do (arguing with us about this is feasibly taking more development time)
    5. We don't play favorites (but I think everybody knows that)
    [/quote]
    Im not really arguing that you do play favorites, however my argument stands. How can you take out 1 development mistake and not all the others?
    Im not saying you really should take out any of those items, I personally have a Brimstone ballista, however as this item is not even suppose to be in game according to time line, then how is it you are willing to keep it in but not a engine?
    Is there a coding issue with the engine at this time?
    Does the engine cause problems with anything other than the timeline?
    You see if you take it out, then you must take out everything else that should not be in the game at this time, its simple logic. However if you do then like I said before you might as well do a wipe, its a faster and more accepted course of action than picking and choosing what should be removed.
    All im saying is you cannot pick and choose, take all or none. So you guys made a simple mistake, fix the drop and move on, dont remove items from a ton of players. I know this is a Stress Test as much as anyone, but you cannot deny my logic.
    All or None, you cannot pick and choose.
  17. What everyone else has said is exactly what I said in my original reply, You cannot take out 1 mistake without fixing the others at the same time. Like I said if the SS8 goes from peoples build list and inventories, then logically all other items that should not be in the game should be removed.
    [quote name='Redd' timestamp='1306770787' post='41400']
    Not just a few choice items.

    Brimstone Ballista and ammo
    Intent for Resolute engine
    Aspiration of the Faithful reactor
    SS8
    Warth of Kokura
    Dark Matter stuff
    several devices...
    List can go on for aways...
    [/quote]

    Kenu you talk about favoritism, but your not considering that leaving these items in the game could also be considered favoritism. You cannot delete one without deleting all those others, plain and simple.

    If you do the deletion route, then logically you might as well do a full wipe, players and items. Again I will state [b]I do not have this engine print[/b], however I do know people that had a SS8 engine built and worked hard to gather the parts for said engine. I can understand fixing the drop so that it is no longer available like so many other items, however you cannot remove a item without removing all the other item mistakes.
  18. LMAO you need to learn to type.
    Your the one that needs to go back to kindergarten and first grade.

    And for your information you were whining about not having the drop, you may not have said it outright but the whole message came across as such.
    Again learn to type and form clear sentences so people can understand you.

    Here let me fix your sentence for you:
    [quote name='Pamster' timestamp='1306734457' post='41377']
    [b]M[/b]aniac [b]you[/b] have some serious reading comprehensions issues. Go back to kindergarten[b],[/b] and come back when you have first grade [b]level[/b] knowledge.[b] I am not going to[/b] repeat what I said for someone as dumb as you[b].[/b][/quote]

    There fixed your grammar and sentencing.

    I cannot for the life of me understand a word you said, so I had to improvise. As for your first post, I still say you were whining and raging because you were not able to get your precious print.

    I seriously hate it when people complain about the dumbest things, If you wish to contribute then post bug reports, not complaints. Again I must repeat myself, This is [size="3"][b][u]Stress Test #4[/u][/b][/size] not a full game as of yet.
