Author Tribes Still Won't Work
Zappa

2005-04-19, 8:33 pm

I hate to be such a dolt but here I go....

I've appended the command line to
C:\Dynamix\Tribes2\GameData\SierraUp.exe - online, and I still run into that
I need to update but there are no updates.

I've reinstalled Tribes but I still end up as above.

I've also reinstalled install DefenseTurret and it aborts.

Will avoiding the update screen get me through to the game? If so how can I
do that?

Your "suggestion" that
<<Alter that shortcut to point to the Tribes2 exe file, instead of
"SierraUp.exe", and add " -online" (minus quotes) after the exe>> Did not
work at all. And Yes I did it right.

There is a note of nastiness in your tone. You have too much time on your
hands.

Ok, did you get any error messages, or were you just dumped back to the

You appended wrong, and used the wrong target. Target tribes2.exe and there
is a space between exe and -, but not between - and online. It should be
tribes2.exe -online.

I found that :
target - drive\Dynamix\Tribes2\GameData\tribes2.exe -online

Works alot better then what you posted.

Well, usually when people do that it means fill in the blank because
thats a variable depending where you installed it to (thought it was self
explanitory), because not everyone installs it to the same place. Still
this was a pretty simple thing you should have been able to figure out on
your own.

It ties in with a comic book series I wrote. And since when is a line

Frank, you've just uttered the one line that pisses me

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS HAVING TOO
MUCH TIME. ~ FOR *ANYTHING*. ~

Now pay attention to the erstwhile Mr K, for he speaks

The tricky part is knowing whether someone too clueless to understand the
text in the shortcut would be savvy enough to override the default
installation directory. Unless someone else installed the game or OS for
him and put it somewhere unusual.

The shortcut editor has another nasty issue: You almost always have to use
quotes around the binary because MS put a space in the middle of the path,
in "Program Files". I'm sure this confuses most end-users to no end. (Not
so much an issue here since the Dynamix installer puts the game outside the
Program Files hierarchy.)

BTW, MS is gonna come down on developers with Longhorn and get them to move
their config files out of Program Files and into their profile where they
belong.

I.T. technician/hangaring engineer.

Basically, it involves me setting up a series of PC tills to behave as
they would if they were installed in a shop. This includes full testing
(hoo hooray... read instructions and push buttons) and fault diagnosing
(yay, flex the old grey matter).

Salary? 11K pm while training... 15K pm after training.

The pisser is, I started 3 days before "payroll" paid the company... so
I'm expecting a wage of 3 days for my first paypacket.

That has always happened to me!! In fact, my first paycheck
from the Shilo was for only *one* hour, because I went to a paid
meeting the day before I began work, which was the start of the
next pay period.
I have it in a frame, on the office wall- never cashed it. :D

That would be 1.1k.

work.

I'm in the process of assisting in a site-wide Windows XP rollout.
About 800 machines all told.

We're in the process of working out bugs and streamlining the install
to where it'll be done via SMS (Microsoft's Systems Management Server
(unaffectionately dubbed Sado-Masocist Suite)) at the end-user's
ethernet drop.

The fun part is, the "entity" I'm doing this for requires high
security. So, the normal process would be to set up a machine, grab an
"image" of the drive via SMS, put that package on the network and then
use a CD with the SMS client and WinPE to pull the package down to the
client PC. When done, the PC would have the OS and all the various
applications needed installed and ready to go! That's the theory, at
least. For a "normal" SMS push.

However, the high security mentioned before requires the end product
to be viciously STIG'd. (Security Technical Implementation Guidelines)
But the STIG'd machine breaks the SMS package. So we're having to run
a glorified batch file after the fact. But working out all the little
difficulties has really been a test in patience for both the IT
department and the people impatient to get XP out and rolling.

Yes that is nice. I use Google so much during the day that I am afraid they
will start charging me. I type medical reports and use it to document
medical procedures, medications, diseases, facilities, doctors, organisms,
etc. Google is my start page. I am a Googler by profession...

As is everyone else. Talk about an act with so many guidelines, and so much
ambiguity... I routinely ignore HIPPA guidelines on daily basis because the
doctor's don't want to conform....

All I know is that we got new insurance cards because Ross'
SS# was on them. Then I forgot to tell all the peeps who did
tests on me. Oh, *that* was fun when Blue Cross denied all
my claims.
