Game Server Will Not Start After Windows Update

Post by evenmonkeys » Mon Oct 27, 2014 12:09 am

So I forgot to disable Windows updates and it updated the .NET Framework and restarted my computer. After that, my Game_Server will not load. It just crashes every time it loads the zones. So I uninstalled the update and still happening.

Any ideas or is there something I have to do?

Run it through Visual Studio and see where it is crashing at.

it means something that shouldn't have happened, happened

in this case, it's disabling the halloween event, which is disabled on the latest dsp hash. so get that if you don't have it

Good call! Disabled the event just to see if it'd work and it loaded. I will update the server asap. Thank you as always!

Awesome, booted up my server today and had the exact same problem. Thanks guys.

EDIT: How do you disable the Halloween event?
EDIT 2: Found the setting - for anyone interested it is in scripts/globals/ - settings.lua
