Wot.utx file mismatch

Post by Aldebaran »

With the Wot.utx file I have the same problem as I had with the ChicoRuinsPack.utx, where a conformed version exists now.

I have:
Wot.utx from 2000-01-28 with 4.173.930 Bytes
Wot.utx from 2000-01-09 with 4.968.675 Bytes

At the moment I use the second one and it works fine with most maps.
But perhaps I can change to the newer one without problems?
What version do you use on your server?

Oh well... I did not have any of them but... I found one in some redirect.
It is exactly 1,254,882 bytes... Probably has nothing in common with previous mentioned files :loool: .

Greetings to all morons making a mess with files.
Now you have convinced me to use MyLevel properly imported as much as possible...

May I take a look at them if you don't mind to share them ?

Red_Fist, I don't find any Wot.utx files in your zipped file.
So I send anybody who needs them via private message.

Find the map that uses wot.utx and check which maps use what version the most. Maybe 1 of the map just had an unknown idea how file mismatching works by the author and ended up like that on accident.

@Medor check on this can ya?

I did a check, no problem if doesn't exist but I could see other textures named with ones which I had "NatureT" by example nearby others - very different in size, groups, etc. Now let me see, I don't know which one was the first but... they are stupidly query the same name for the same engine causing crap in this case. As another matter of fact by importing all of them in Editor for MyLevel some of them are causing a crash - probably having some magic "byte" out of UT and then importing does a crash, or are simply corrupted...
I have doubts to no see player crashing when a new texture is called and... it doesn't even exist. Conforming them for preventing a mismatch is a myth, because... it won't help... it just does another rejection...
As a XC howe-work would be improving redirection method by sending the right file to client - used in server - as default UT does when redirect doesn't match server's file rather than rejecting player - THAT is the improvement. I'm sure that UT has such code but it needs probably moved a bit into the right place and called in the right moment.

I found two other Wot.utx files. I am now totally confused which one should be used...

I think it will require some Levels reworked for such a case because... is too much trash here. Is a good thing to have MyLevel as a main friend offering option for fixing stuff...
Because if we talk about textures, they might have a different structure and then player will not play with wrong file, and If server uses 2 maps requiring 2 different files one of them will crash server.
Else... I can try merging all these files into a single one, and with the price of a mismatch (which exist anyway) you might run all maps involving Wot.utx dumbness.
Edit: Right now there are in all these files 147 Texture blocks.

How can a http (not https) connection have a certificate problem?! And http://medor.no-ip.org/ does not offer an encrypted connection via https.

Maybe you have "Comodo Internet Security" installed? There seem to be problems with that and Chrome.
