00:19:18 *** manila[m] has joined #openttd 00:21:42 <greeter> i'm trying to start a dedicated server, and when i connect i keep getting the error "could not load savegame" anyone have any ideas where to start first in troubleshooting? 00:23:09 <Eddi|zuHause> did you compile yourself? 00:24:22 <greeter> i tried that originally, but i was getting version mismatches, so i decided to use the precompiled binaries instead 00:25:06 <ST2> I saw something similar at tt-forums 00:25:48 <greeter> i tried searching the forums, but i didn't see anything there helpful. i probably didn't see what you saw though 00:25:58 *** Cthulhux has quit IRC 00:26:10 <ST2> greeter: how you try to load savegame? 00:26:26 <greeter> i haven't tried actually. i'm trying to start a brand new name 00:26:43 <ST2> if save used newgrf's, does the server has same versions? 00:27:04 <Eddi|zuHause> try setting a savegame compression format 00:27:15 <ST2> or disable it 00:27:21 <ST2> for the sake 00:27:35 <greeter> wow, running openttd without the -D option over ssh is interesting lol 00:28:07 <ST2> yeah, close that ssh session and server dies too 00:28:13 <Eddi|zuHause> well, it will try to run through the x-forwarding 00:28:23 <greeter> it's running through text 00:28:55 <ST2> greeter: dedicated servers always run that way 00:29:15 <greeter> but without -D it looks like it's trying to run a client 00:29:20 <ST2> oh, with -D 00:29:48 <ST2> if I may ask, what OS? 00:29:52 <greeter> http://i.imgur.com/i6RsDfz.png 00:29:53 <Eddi|zuHause> all (non -D) runs can be both server and client 00:31:13 <ST2> greeter: what command you're using to start the server? 00:31:24 <greeter> just i've never seen any windowed program try to run in ncurses like that lol. anyhow, let me get the command i've been trying to run 00:31:30 <ST2> (the primary one) 00:31:52 <Eddi|zuHause> it's probably SDL running in ascii-art mode 00:31:54 <greeter> ./openttd -D -c /home/greeter/.openttd/openttd.cfg 00:32:01 <greeter> it is, just never seen it before 00:32:37 <ST2> does the binary has rights to access /.openttd/ 00:32:45 <greeter> yes 00:32:50 <ST2> those are usually protected folders 00:33:10 <greeter> just hidden in my case 00:33:21 <ST2> "just"?! 00:33:43 <Eddi|zuHause> dunno if that is some innate SDL ability, or someone actually patched this into openttd 00:33:46 <ST2> what are the rights on openttd binary? 00:33:52 *** Thedarkb-X40 has joined #openttd 00:33:55 <greeter> even without using a specified configuration file it comes up with that problem 00:34:20 <ST2> use a cfg on the user folder 00:34:26 <ST2> not on a protected one 00:34:33 <Eddi|zuHause> well, the path above is the default place where it looks for the file 00:34:33 <greeter> alright 00:35:04 <ST2> if it's the default... it's a great security issue 00:35:47 <greeter> ok moved the file to the home folder, going to try again 00:36:33 <greeter> same thing. not sure if this helps but on the server i see this: *** greeter has left the game (could not load map) 00:37:06 <ST2> *** greeter has left the game (could not load map) 00:37:14 <ST2> that's not a server start issue 00:37:23 <ST2> it means server started 00:37:33 <ST2> the previous error 00:37:38 <ST2> did it appeared? 00:37:52 <ST2> cmon greeter, 1 step at a time 00:38:10 <greeter> oh the server starts just fine, i just can't connect to it because i get that error 00:38:24 <greeter> i guess i misspoke earlier, sorry :\ 00:38:27 <ST2> ok Eddi|zuHause, what was the SDL thing? 00:38:56 <Eddi|zuHause> greeter: on the server. try setting the savegame compression to uncompressed (just for testing) 00:39:02 <greeter> alright 00:39:29 <Eddi|zuHause> try that with a small map :p 00:39:56 <ST2> well, since server starts, now it's with you Eddi :) 00:41:41 <greeter> hmm i'm trying to find the option to set the map size 00:42:01 <greeter> got it 00:42:41 <greeter> hmm still doing the same thing 00:50:22 <Eddi|zuHause> the map size won't fix your error. just if you try uncompressed savegames, you want them as small as possible to begin with 00:50:38 *** KouDy has joined #openttd 00:50:55 *** tokai|noir has joined #openttd 00:50:55 *** ChanServ sets mode: +v tokai|noir 00:51:23 <greeter> tried uncompressed but it's still doing that 00:51:37 <Eddi|zuHause> what's the exact error message you get on the client? 00:52:01 <Eddi|zuHause> also, try a more verbose mode on the client, like "openttd -d 3" 00:52:26 <greeter> alright 00:53:14 <Eddi|zuHause> (note that this is a lower case "-d") 00:54:35 <greeter> dbg: [gamelog] ---- gamelog

00:57:44 *** tokai has quit IRC 01:05:22 <Eddi|zuHause> are you sure that is not the title game? 01:05:44 <greeter> hmm i'm not sure how to tell to be honest 01:06:06 <Eddi|zuHause> is that on the server or on the client? 01:06:15 <greeter> that's on the client 01:06:39 <Eddi|zuHause> does that show up before or after you try to join the server? 01:07:38 <greeter> that shows up immediately after getting disconnected. i had to kill the process immediately after to see it because it kept outputting info to the console 01:08:27 <Eddi|zuHause> then that is probably the title game. the important information would be quite a bit before that 01:09:01 *** ChanServ sets mode: +b *!*@* 01:09:01 *** tokai|noir was kicked by ChanServ (You are not permitted on this channel) 01:09:01 ***
