I'm also getting the "PlayerManager Connection Failed" issue, and it also seems to be related to multihome:

[ACEv10f]: ERROR: ACE could not spawn the PlayerManager.
[ACEv10f]: ERROR: ACE is now disabled.
ACE: ERROR - PlayerManager Connection Shutting Down!
My server is on GameServers and they force us to use "multihome=@SERVERIP port=@SERVERPORT -nohomedir" in the server's command line. I told them that others with multihome share the same problem, and that with multihome off, ACE worked. Unfortunately, it seems they depend on it. I inquired if I could be switched to a Winblows box and they said they didn't offer any for UT99.
That (multihome) has to stay in the command line, otherwise your server will not work and other clients' services could be impacted as well.

I am sorry, but we do not offer this game on Windows.

Stuck between either changing hosts or waiting for a fix as my only solution, I thought of downgrading to the closest release before 1.0f - however all the downloads I've been able to find, require a password in order to extract the files. After hours of searching online, I finally found this:

http://forums.ut-files.com/post15445.html
ACEv09c is private

I asked AnthraXs who asked me not to make it public so i ave save it and set a password.
Any help is appreciated :)

:help:

A simple update for the server-side .so/.dll file will probably suffice to fix this. I'll try to upload a fix this weekend. Are there any other pressing issues that need to be fixed in the mean time?

I've sent the v1.0g package to some people for testing. Changes in this release include:

Code: Select all

v1.0g:
* [FIXED] Splash logo not appearing in TO
* [FIXED] False positive kicks for system dlls in WINE 2.0
* [FIXED] Autoconfig now properly recognizes all TOST files
* [FIXED] False positive detections of package patches in certain packages (e.g., s_SWAT, BotPack)
* [CHANGED] Made the GameServer<->PlayerManager connection mechanism more robust. This should fix timeout issues with -MULTIHOME (needs testing!!)

i know that at some point the game starts to get faster, but is it possible to increase the fps cap further?
right now its capped at 180, right? eventhough some seem to get 200 somehow (older windows?)
so i guess 200 is fine too? or even a bit higher?
just asking :wink:

If I'm not mistaken your question has nothing to do with ACE. 200FPS is the max regardless. Anything above that causes weird game issues.

looks like some maps still kicking. This happened to multiple players on the same map.

This issue was fixed in an updated version of PackageHelper v1.3. I bundled it with one of the latest versions of ACE (might have been v1.0f?). Don't forget to unzip/overwrite all files!

there were some hiccups while testing v1.0g. I fixed them and will release v1.0h soon.

Change log:

Code: Select all

v1.0h:
* [FIXED] ACE breaking the HUDMutator chain in some game types
* [FIXED] Map switches taking a long time when the server is handling a lot of traffic

v1.0g:
* [FIXED] Splash logo not appearing in TO
* [FIXED] False positive kicks for system dlls in WINE 2.0
* [FIXED] Autoconfig now properly recognizes all TOST files
* [FIXED] False positive detections of package patches in certain packages (e.g., s_SWAT, BotPack)
* [CHANGED] Made the GameServer<->PlayerManager connection mechanism more robust. This should fix timeout issues with -MULTIHOME (needs testing!!)

yeah the update fixed all the maps we reported initially. This one still kicking though. I will test on my own if I ever get time. :loool:

How do you stop the latest ACE forcing 167fps with highperftoggle off?

I have mine set up to 195fps limit, and it feels great, but as soon as I go into the servers that run the new ACE it forces my fps to 167 no matter what I set it to and it's makes the game fell horrible. This is not an XC_Engine problem, it's an ACE problem because it does it with or without XC_Engine installed. This is without highperftoggle on.

How did you configure the 195 limit? Did you use one of the UTGLR renderers and set the frameratelimit variable?

There's a couple of things that could be causing your framerate to cap at 195:
- ACE currently caps the frameratelimit at 180fps. I can raise that cap a little bit, but there needs to be a cap for security reasons. UT has some glitches that cause players with higher framerates to run faster. This effect is barely noticable at "low" framerates, but becomes really obvious once you move beyond 180.
- Your netspeed also caps the framerate. UT's main game loop renders a frame and sends out a 64-byte packet in every iteration. This means that if your netspeed is X, then the maximum framerate your game can run at will be X / 64. With a netspeed of 6400, your maximum framerate would be 100fps.
- Similarly, the server's maxclientrate also caps your framerate. Setting the maxclientrate limits how much data each client can send to the server per second. With a maxclientrate of X, everyone's netspeed would be capped at X, and this limits your framerate to X / 64.
