I had a similar situation and used the router to split the ip. I had problems when I tried to run a Hat. The router did not like the Hat. So I switched to Hamachi and got my Provider (Cox Communications) to send me a second IP. Now I don't need to use a router. I am considering a VPN (virtual private network) I may run a router again. More than one way to solve a problem. Let me know how things are going. I can run up to Three computer on Cox Cable. Yhere is a smalll fee for the third IP. It beats the price of a virtual Ip. Let me know how it is going. Lord Atton |

Thanks for the offer. I believe Ex-lund is looking into bugs. As for the router: I used to have a peer to peer network and was unable to host any hat there either. A router is much easier for connecting computers at home. And I have only 1 internet connection, shared by several computers. Much easier to add or remove with a router. |

Simon, I would be glad to help you if I can. This might sound a bit stupid, but why are you running a router? Is this for IP splitting? I live with some of the bugs in Rom2. Some are pretty minor. Returning a wrong chr is a major bug. Not sure just how your set up is. If you want some help I will be around. Take care, Lord Attom aka Morgan |

Maybe it was the windows firewall? Cant find a way to add a portrange so I now added some portnumbers manually. Hope someone checks once more: 62.194.19.144 login: test passw: test |

I tried connecting....no luck at all. Sign in to MSN and we can chat (so much easier than playing forum tag or email tag) I'm not experiencing any of the problems you seem to be having.....I've got 10 servers running right now. |

hmmm...I'm guessing you took the test hat down, cuz I can't find any HAT at that IP address. | ||||

Date: 04-Oct-08, 22:25:48 | ||||
Thank, that works! :) Unfortunately I encountered some more bugs :/ -Returning a chr to the hat frequently goes wrong; chr. is not always removed in the rom_hat.stat file by the hat, and chr is not always removed from the server's chrs directory. As a result the server.bat program containing the map where the chr was playing keeps trying to send back the chr to the hat, and the hat responds 'client has already disconnected'when you try to log in again... When you shutdown the hat (but not the server.bat programs) and restart the hat, than the rom2server programs reconnect, but don't load a map; yet rom_hat.exe shows all servers connected with the proper maps, but the player can't see them. |

the chr files are stored inside the .lgn files. The only people who really see the .a2c's are the players...there might also be a chr file stored inside the servers character directory while a player is online. autoreg_mode has to = 1 in order to have accounts automatically be created when an unknown login is recieved. |

Author: Albadaran (simondekker [at] hotmai [dot] com) | ||||
Date: 04-Oct-08, 16:25:39 | ||||
Alright, some questions: -Where are the chr files (xxxx.a2c) stored on the server? -autoreg_mode = 0 - how can I make that working? Server currently gives this message when I try to log on with a non existing account: trying to open non existant account () recv_handler (IP adress) disconnected - and on client site rom2 gets stuck. I would like one of you to try if you can enter: 62.194.19.144 login: test passw: test |

Bug report! I think its better to continue the discussion in the proper message :) When I enter a map with a chr too strong/weak, rom_hat not only rejects the chr, but also disconnects the server. |

To Exlend: Just curious, but does your char-edit program work with the account files generated by your new rom2-hat program? And is there any chance you could compile a version of your char-edit program with english menus and tabs. The russian version is incredibly difficult to use until you memorize the location of each item. It is a friggin' awesome program though and I wish I had it 4 or 5 years ago when I was running my Chaos HATs. -NOVA |

Out of curiosity, does your HAT solve the problem where players are able to login twice using both lower case and upper case? Example: james and JAMES |

Thanks for the update, I don't have the client patch yet, so it's be great if you could post it. By the way, I was planning on making a bunch of auto-patches with a program NOVA refered me to, in order help players & server ops quickly apply patches if needed. Would you mind if I hosted them on a website? Credits to you of course. Thanks, |

Also, i don't recommend you to leave any_version as 1 because client with one version can't connect to server with another | ||||

Hi Atton, I have gotten then auto account script working, however I am still waiting on two things before I officially open the hat. 1. Figure out this final problem with the new HAT software, once it's done I won't have to rely on Hamachi anymore 2. A dedicated computer to run things on. I should hopefully have a spare comp fairly soon for this. As it stands, I an only running about 5 full time servers with about 6 hour map rotations...While I could technically give you an account if you really want one, aside from those 5 maps I am running on a request a map and get it basis atm. Please hold tight ;) with any luck things will be up and running fairly soon. |

James, Be happy to help you with your Hat. I have run a server and it up currently. I am in the process of making some new maps. I sent you and email with my account name and password. Was not sure you had the auto account creation working yet. Lord Atton |

Ok, great I have the server connecting now. However when I try to create a character, I get the following log error and the game freezes [17.09.2008 19:42:58 W] clients_handler(): unexpected packet 48 (192.168.0.147:3533/actathia) My current Hat_conf: server = 101 | Server 1 | 192.168.0.147:8002 | 192.168.0.147:8003 servers_addr = 192.168.0.147 servers_port = 8001 hat_language = english any_version = 1 output_codepage = cp1251 hat_version = 7 chr_base_path = ./chr/ autoreg_mode = 1 I've also tried it using port forwarding with my ext ip and recieved the same error..

and change your IPAddress' port to 8003 so you need to redirect your 8003 port to internet on your router, and map_addr'd be something like YOUR_EXT_ADDR:8003 |

Author: exc!ton (vladimir [dot] chebotarev [at] gmail [dot] com) | ||||

At first you'd set HatAddress in server.cfg to 192.168.0.xxx:8001 (as in servers_port) |

The rom_hat.conf is currently: server = 101 | Server 1 | 192.168.0.147:8002 servers_addr = 192.168.0.147 servers_port = 8001 hat_language = english any_version = 0 output_codepage = cp1251 hat_version = 7 chr_base_path = ./chr/ autoreg_mode = 1 my server config is trying to connect with: HatAddress=192.168.0.147 IPAddress=192.168.0.147:8001 IPAddress2=192.168.0.147:8002 I'm not sure what should be done with the second ip address/or which one is supposed to connect to the ip as designated in the hat_conf Thanks, |

Hey, great work on this! I've been able to figure out more or less how most of it works..got the hat running with a login that was able to connect. I'm still having troubles getting a server to connect though. I've gotten the tcp/ip error with each method I've tried. Would you be able to go over in more detail how server connections work? Both from the hat and from the server ends? For now I'm just testing it on the internal network. I've yet to attempt anything using map_addr Thanks for your work on this, with the new features that you've added it looks to be a far more powerful HAT than the existing one. Just need to learn it ;) |
