UP 1.8 hell

Unread post by Colslaw »

I spent the better part of Saturday getting UP1.8 installed and while it seems very nice, I keep getting a CRT=2 Timeout 1 error when I try to enter WoW. I can join Medar's server with no problem.

I was going to use my DVD to make a new install and then patch that to 4.08, 4.09b, 4.09m and the UP1.8 however the DVD only loads to play the game. I tried renaming the ubi soft folder and $%^&*( Vista won't let me. I tried copying the DVD to my D drive and then install it there, but again nothing.

I am assuming my options now are copy my ubisoft folder from C over to D (it is 70GB!!!) and then do a new install on C. Or delete all my current versions and start fresh but this time be absolutely sure I save a basic 4.08 folder. I suppose the latter is the best option as ong as I save my missions and skins folders.

One other problem is I am unable to use the Swordfish. . my game crashes when I try to use it. . after a little searching, it appears that my files/3do/plane folder is missing the swordfish folder as the cockpit folder does contain a swordfish folder

The only thing that I copied for my multiple installs is the il-2 sturmovik 1946 folder. Then this is renamed when that install is to be used. It is still significant, but not quite as large as the ubisoft folder.

If you are installing 4.09b then that is the problem. You don't want to include 4.09b in your installation, and that is why you are getting the CRT=2 Timeout 1 error.

Aha. ..

I have a 4.08 folder
a AAA 1.1 folder (which includes a patch to 4.09b)
4.09m

I may have used my AAA folder with the assumption that it needed 4.09b to create my 4.09m folder. However if I did so I was able to fly in the WOW Singapore campaign with no crt error

I just finished using my unmodded 4.08 folder. . and upped that to 4.09m and then UP1.8.

I still get CRT=2 in Wow, and no Swordfish

I believe UP1.8 has a bug that does not allow access to the Swordfish, unless they patched that since the last time I tried it.

As for the CRT=2 error, do you get that error when you try to connect with other UP1.8 based servers?

I used the files from a couple of different mirrors. tested them, and they all came up okay.

I can fly in Medar's server with the same settings as WoW.

Playing RB for the next hour, but I may try a totally new install when that is done
