ETLegacy - Who plays from ETLegacy

Message added by daredevil

Please DO NOT download ETlegacy 2.76 as it will not work on any servers using pk3 as menu of char ~~ or Ext ASCII characters. Matter of times server admins start spamming zzzzz in pk3 names. I have no idea what is the logic behind blocking pk3 file name rather then blocking menu override itself. 

 

I have tried to talk with @kemon  , IRATA and other member of Legacy team. They went out with this approach which really doesn't make any sense. Let's be honest here - it doesn't - no matter how much anyone tries to justify it. Even @kemon you and IRATA both even agreed to that i.e. blocking file characters is not a good logic,  in our conversations so i have no idea what happened during release. 

 

Here is prime example - Gun control is an issue for massive crime so some people decided to block ONLY SMG's but rest of the guns would be still freely available in market. Does that make any sense? Because you ban SMG but rifles, other guns, pistol, etc etc are still available in market.  

 

So same happened in ETLegacy 2.76 version. They just banned 2-3 characters in ETLegacy version. Matter of time admins will start spamming pk3's with name zzzzzzzz, yyyyyyyyy, xxxxxxxxxx - etc... etc. 

 

I have no idea what else to say. I have tried to convey the message since months to the team but they did - what they wanted to do it even though few members had told me that in next version they will not block any file names. No offense intended to anyone. In my book - it's horrible logic. It really is.

ETLegacy install did not install PB for me.

In my ETL console, /cl_guid and /sil_guid work fine.

Exactly!

What did you do when you installed ETL ?

When ETL told you he found an ETKEY and wanted to use it ?

copied the etkey to Legacy. That's all.

That does not answer my question.

I think if you said YES when ETL told you he found an ETKEY and used it...it may have cut it from ET 2.6 and paste it in ETL.

So i guess copying it from ETL to ET 2.6 might work.

But be aware i am guessing here since i didnt have that problem.

I did it, but that's not the point.

Maybe not GUID is a problem now, but ... all statistics (XP, KR) are reset.
I don't have lev4 either.

As i can see it is not ETL related.

If you want, then you can split my posts into a new topic.

Now I see that cl_guid and sil_guid are correct. The same as they are in my forum profile.
In that case, I have a question: why does the server not recognize me? No XP, KR and lev.

Because something messed up with your silent.dat ? 

I did not copy this file to Legacy.
In ET 2.6 for sure I even restored the backup and is unchanged.
