yes it is working go to post 3 and check the server adresse you try to connect to, you might have to change in in metw.bat file using an editor

Hi there, I followed the instructions to install tortoise but I could only install the 64 bit version since the 32 bit version cannot be installed in my system. After the core folder SVN checkout, although all files seem to have been downloaded, no user/password was required. Now, every time I initiate a metwDC.bat file, it starts the program trying to connect to gccg.councilofelrond.org port 29130 and i goes offline without being able to reconnect. The server is 199.91.172.122 ... Is it down or am I doing something terribly wrong? When I try metw.bat, it says that my old user name (unborn) is already registered, server closed connection, abnormal exit...any idea on how to solve this?

Thanks!

Rodrigo

Hola,

several things that could be an issue here:
no user/password was required. Now, every time I initiate a metwDC.bat file, it starts the program trying to connect to gccg.councilofelrond.org port 29130 and i goes offline without being able to reconnect.
hmm, weird, lets try metwDC.bat first: you have the GCCG window open right click on the surface (not a table) and select open to reconnect to server!

if that does not work we need to open the metwDC.bat file with an text editor it should look like this:
@echo off
set HOME=C:
set USER=Windows
set CLIENT=.\ccg_client.exe
if exist .\home set HOME=.\home
if exist module_windows32\ccg_client.exe set CLIENT=module_windows32\ccg_client.exe
start %CLIENT% --server 199.91.172.122 --design 1920x1010 --user %USER% %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 metwDC.xml
some info will be different, but server has to be as seen above
The server is 199.91.172.122 ... Is it down or am I doing something terribly wrong? When I try metw.bat, it says that my old user name (unborn) is already registered, server closed connection, abnormal exit...any idea on how to solve this?
if that issue maintains, or also comes up with metwDC.bat, (if we got it working with above), open your username file and rename it to unborn2 (or something other but reconciable as you)

Once you are able to connect, send me a PM while being online, I am there most hours, so I can rejoin these 2 accounts in God-mode

yours Nicolai

PS. just checked the unborn account still valid, but only has 1 card and 40.20 in cash, so all in all I could send it to nirvana if nothing else works as well

Thanks Nicolai. I did all that you suggested but I still have the issue with my user name. It says it is taken or already registered. I am failing to find the "user name" file that you suggested to edit.. Any hint where it should be? (it is not in the folder). Btw, I tried the command 'new user' in metwDC.bat and it recommended to use /su my_username. Once I do that it says I need a password.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Rodrigo

normally the username file hides in C/.gccg/username

check was in "yourname" and alter it to something new like "unborn2" or "unborn"

one or the other should work, depending what is in before

if not I will kill switch your account

Hi all!

I just wanted to get everyone on the same page with gccg.

There are three repositories that exist(ed):

The current gccg, core svn repo (which is updated very little, once a year I hear)
The OLD gccg, metw svn repo (which is now defunct)
The NEW gccg, dc git repo (which has replaced the svn one, was metw)

A simple (if you have read other instructions, on the forum) setup would be (FROM the BEGINNING):

clone the svn gccg/core
clone the git gccg/dc

If this is your first time, you have to manually go thru and replace, file for file, DUE TO A DATE problem, the files from the dc folder into the core folder, maintaining folder structure. You can do group file for file, but not folder (directory) for folder (directory).

Once you get your gccg/core folder updated with the new gccg/dc folder contents, you can enjoy just updating that github repo, and merge, rsync, etc if you want to just update only the NEW PULLs from the git repo.

Once again, here are the repository URLs:

1) Latest gccg/core
http://ccg@svn.code.sf.net/p/gccg/svn

user: ccg
pass: ccg

2) Latest gccg/dc
(named dc so there would be a distinction between the old metw and the new dc, you just need contents any way)
https://github.com/vastorper/dc

you can clone and make an updatable git repo {or}
you can download the zip every time, there are updates.

Once again, update the files at first manually, and then you can let any utilities do it for you if you want, after dc updates.

n.b. IF the gccg/core svn repo gets updated, you will have to repeat this process.
n.b. Other instruction on how to get the gccg game going are on this site.

Thanks!

oh and don't forget the gccg/metw game server address!!

gccg/core/scripts/client.triggers

change this:
server.name_default="NO.DEFAULT.SERVER.FOR.THIS.GAME";
server.name=server.name_default;
mode="";

to this:
# server.name_default="NO.DEFAULT.SERVER.FOR.THIS.GAME";
server.name_default="199.91.172.122";
server.name=server.name_default;
mode="";

Laters...

you can use your turtoise to do a new checkout at: https://github.com/vastorper/dc
under a newly created metw/dc folder...

I also posted more details, as to the new arrangement in the README.md file located over at the github.com/vastorper/dc, location.

MAKE SURE YOU ARE ON THE MASTER BRANCH, (git terminology I suppose)...

This is absolutely incredible. Being a physical player/collector only, I had no idea so much work was going on behind the scenes. Looks like I've got some research and learning to do...
