ACE disconnecting players

Post by Pileyrei »

Hi all

Starting a thread to discuss ACE problems on my server.

I had major problems connecting myself but anth kindly helped me resolve it --> I had a corrupted females texture file.

I can now connect fine and ACE loads with no issues when I use my desktop PC
But when connecting on my laptop UT just closes a few seconds after I join :???:

No error, nothing. Just closes.
I see my join in the logs but no errors.

One player gets a general protection fault error and UT crashes.

Screenshots and more information to come.

In the mean time, I'd be super grateful if anyone could join and stay for a few minutes and see if they are kicked or if UT crashes.

@papercoffee - I think you had issues on the server when ACe got installed? Could you check again pls and report any issues or errors?

Thanks cromy

Saw you in. Joined twice and UT just closed on me :?

Thanks for testing. I'm stumped as to why it works for some but not others. :x

I've also seen some reports where UT constantly crashes without any error message during ACE initialization. See here for example. Fingers crossed that anth can locate the issue and fix it in the next release.

Windows AppCrash over here:
I joined with a clean UT, with no ACE/nploader files present.

Thank you everyone for the feedback so far and the error message.

EDIT: Added a screenshot of the error another player gets
UT Crash error.JPG
UT Crash error.JPG (26.74 KiB) Viewed 1659 times
Troubleshooting in progress. I hope this thread will resolve the problems and be helpful to other server admins :)

Another thing I noticed was no player join logs.

I added the last four bolded lines after seeing it in another thread and then my join log appeared from desktop PC - but it was empty! :x

Here is my config:

For anyone who crashes or UT just closes on ACE servers, please could they try connecting to and playing for a few minutes or a few games?

Should be fine!

Some downloads might be slow for now.

I see that you are testing the new ACE11f version - I'm gonna forward your IP to the player I know who's suffering from the crashs. Let's hope that it's fixed! :)

Just verified indeed, i can join now and ACE validates.
The Install screen was hidden for me, i had to press ESC to ''install all'' and ''reconnect'', cause it was already in-game.

EDIT: ACE files added to redirect so should be fast.
Any slow downloads, disconnect/reconnect.

******

Yes please.

ACE files not redirected yet but not too slow.

Fingers crossed all works now.

My player confirms that his crashes are fixed. Really looking forward to the release of ACE 11f now so I can put it on my server :)
