Ok there we go , why do I get this error message :confused:?

[fagelvagen]

Sorry forgot it was swedish This program coud not start because the program configuration is wrong. The porblem coud be fixed trough if you reinstal the program

Crashado
Try using the old version of Ascent, or try using the new one. If it still doesnt work, try installing the new version of .NET

sal08
That is caused by not having the correct version of .NET.
Try updating it.

fagelvagen
Again, try downloading .NET
Also, try using a differnt version of Ascent.

Nice Guide! Very helpful

[sal08]

ok i fixed the problem by going to a different rev.
i have a new problem now, when im on character creation page and click continue i get disconnected from the server.

[j9sjam3]

Have you made sure your character database is set correctly?
For example in Ascent-World.conf

<WorldDatabase Hostname = "localhost" Username = "root" Password = "root" Name = "spdb" Port = "3306" Type = "1">
<CharacterDatabase Hostname = "localhost" Username = "root" Password = "root" Name = "spdbchar" Port = "3306" Type = "1">

Remember, you have TWO .sql files to execute now...
I need to update my guide as there has been a new release since I made it.
I will update it as soon as I have the time.
Thank you.



EDIT: Guide has been updated, changes within the 'Executing Batch File' section of my guide.
Please re-read before posting a question!
Thank you.

Try using a different version of Ascent.

Thats the only thing I can suggest sorry...

[dannyblaydon]

hey, how can i do that? i used both the "ascent ####" that were theere...

[j9sjam3]

Try using the oldest Ascent and configure the .conf files correctly.
If that doesn't work, try using the newest Ascent and configure the .conf files.

I am not really sure what else to suggest sorry...
Dear God, just looked at the time!
Its early...............

Well, i used a different guide to make it work (i know yours worked on my other computer) but now im useing your guide to make it public (with hamachi) i can log on but when others try they see the realmlist, press ok. then it takes them straight back to the realms list...

[j9sjam3]

Known problem on some PC's.

Try to use different ports in ascent-logon.conf
