Why oh why would we break from the storyline? There'd have to be a good case made for that, not just a desire for it. I don't allow Terrans to have build reactors because they suck at energy management, therefore even if they could make reactors, those reactors would be terrible. That is their defined weakness as originally designed. Progen can't make engines (I believe) and they are terribly slow but are capable of packing quite a punch... when they get there. I forget what it is Jenquai can't build right off hand but I'm sure it's related to their racial weakness as well.

Aha, but if you're not used to living off the land, total computer network failure for the government (aka a firesale) would result in life as everyone knows it, ceasing.. since nothing in the outside world would function normally, at least temporarily) Everything in this day and age just about is powered by a computer somewhere along the line. Granted this isn't likely, but this virus is nasty enough to really make it a significant threat.. especially if someone manages to get all the code and change it to make it self-replicate. Then we could be looking at a Skynet

Excuse me, say that again? That's right, that's what I thought too... dangerous stuff. I encountered this at work, indirectly of course, our systems weren't affected, thankfully. In any case, an interesting concept if indeed a very very dangerous one. This takes the concept of the "firesale" mentioned in a few movies (most recently I think, the last die hard movie). I'm not one to provoke such thoughts on people, but this is one thing that we really need to be wary of, since it could cause devastation for any country's respective militaries and could lead to destruction and chaos. Really not things most people want to think about, especially with many in America constantly talking about terrorism a lot of people are tired of hearing it. I'm usually one of them, because I'm not scared of that. However, I am scared of the concept of bringing computer networks down around our ears since it could inhibit so many other things, such as many of the things we all take for granted (especially here in America). anyway, I just thought i'd "share with the class" and see if anyone else had heard or read anything about this. And as much as I loathe to use a blog as a source, this is a computer security blog that also discusses the concept, it predates this confirmed virus though. CSO Online - Firesale

recommendation: disable "Compatibility mode" it causes hell with these forums with whitespace and other oddities. It's what was causing Dakynos's posts to appear as giant whitespaces because the moderator group had an extra <span> tag in the section that made their title change color.

It is being rebooted.

Basically, items are really Riia's domain, but we intend to do some stuff to make them more viable. As a frame of reference in live, the difference was high level engines were much better in terms of stats. You were faster in every way, the downside is you might as well have had your own personal nav beacon on the ship since you could draw enemies from miles around. Most people could get up to the warp cap with lower level engines, and thus they didn't care to spend more points on other skills but not everyone did that. I remember taking engine tech to IX on every toon. In any case, we want to do something to make engines worthwhile, hopefully that doesn't mean doing any weakening but instead adding buffs. However, i can't speak for everyone. We'll look into it when it comes time, we'll do our best to avoid reducing effectiveness but I can't promise that everything will remain 100% the same. To say it now before we've even begun to run numbers would be a lie.

All I can say is "Don't hold your breath." To give them reactors I'd have to nerf them in several other ways, no thanks. It may not be the most optimal build skill to have engines, but it is a racial specialty. Also, keep in mind that the higher grade engines will be a lot more useful by the time we get to "live" again. There won't be any more of this taking engine tech to IV Or V and it being good enough for end-game... at least not unless you want to gimp yourself before you ever get started.

Yeah, if at all possible and you could capture a short moving showing the effect you're seeing one of the forum admins may be able to assist. I don't see it either.

It was just left there and never removed by the last person who touched it I am guessing.

When I say PM I meant the forum private message function. However, yes, I am Kyp on the server as well.

Send me a PM and I'll introduce you to the correct folks.

You'd have to find an Apple App that lets you emulate the windows environment. Having not owned a mac or apple since the IIe I have no idea about the name of an application, but I know they are out there.

You'd probably have to perform the equivalent of a jailbreak on it and void the warranty so you could run a windows emulator. The game client was written for PC.

We'll look into that, but as long as the new passwords worked for now that's what matters, right?

Right click the LaunchNet7 shortcut, and "Run as Administrator"

You don't launch Net7Proxy. You should launch using the LaunchNet7.exe, it should in turn launch the proxy.

Low-Powered Wind machine? lol.

Yeah that's her station default talk tree. It occurred because i had to change the promo master mission for TE and TT in August. I'll take a glance at it in a moment Jarod. You're all fixed up, I'll have blacklung message you, you'll need to relog for the stage to update.

how about just PM me with your e-mail address and the log-in name for your forum account and I'll reset you.

If you installed to the default, it would be C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Earth & Beyond\release\client.exe of course substituting C for another drive letter if you do any other as the default. Look at the top of the launcher where it says Client and tell me what it says. This looks like:

Based on that the path where you have the launcher pointing for the game has something that the code can't deal with. What is the path to your enb game client? (in full please) However, if you're getting to user name and password in-game, then that's not a crash from LaunchNet7, that's a crash in the game itself.

for now I'd suggest a reinstall of the net7 software. It's hard to say without your crash log what's causing the real problem. Does this message occur from our launcher?

Based on what I see, essentially nothing as CDel indicated: private void c_CheckBox_SecureAuthentication_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (c_CheckBox_SecureAuthentication.Checked) { c_TextBox_Port.Text = "443"; } else { c_TextBox_Port.Text = "443"; } } If checked, sets that port.text to 443, if unchecked also sets it to 443. Aside from this it appears to store to a configuration. Nothing really appears to be "passed" to Net7 proxy aside from /SSL:443, further supporting what Cdel said before. This isn't really doing anything to the proxy that I can see since SSL works over port 443 by default anyway.
