Windows 7

Hey I'm back, again..lol

I'm back with a new fully loaded computer, 6 gigz RAM, 500 gb harddrive, the works. Olny thing is I don't think I can run a source in Visual C# because of my having Windows 7. Does anyone know anything about running a server on windows 7? Apart from that, I've been out of the game for a while lol, any good new sources? I JUST logged in and wrote this so i havent look around yet =p

Considering that Microsoft made both .Net and windows 7, if they didn't work together, that would be pretty funny.

Only issue is 64x and 86x, but korv posted a fix for that.

@OP
Try running as admin?

Wait is it 64 bit? If so look for korvacs release on changing bits

I guess I need to look at Korvacs guide then, cuz no matter what I do, I get an error when trying to run the 5165 server. I'll try it out thanks guys

Korvacs guide was awesome and easy to understand. After I did it I pressed F5 and got the same problem. Here it is exactly how it says in my Console. I hope you guys can help, ill also make a new thread

The specefied Conquer Online folder doesn't exist. DMaps coulnd't be loaded.
Mobs loaded 6055

The server is ready for connections.
Always close the server by pressing Enter, or the important data wont save.

config.ini

[Database]
GameServerIP=Hac or real ip
ConquerPath=C:\OldCODB\ <--Make sure its there
WebServerPort=8080

[MySql]
User=root
Password=password *whatever u put*

Jăy1029 · 03/03/2010, 23:05

If the OldCODB folder is not in drive C then you will get the error "Database doesn't exist. The server cannot start"

The one I'm getting is different, and yeah my config.ini is set exactly as you showed there except with my IP and PW of course. Good try though, anyone else got a solution to this gay error -.-

check in your source (depending if you downloaded the original source, or a modified version), and see where it's calling the dmaps from. it's a simple error.
