Error with server files

G1llam · July 8, 2018

Hello, im having a problem when i join my server as when i pick civilian for example then press ok it downloads the mission file as normal but then at the point where the spawn options should pop up it just gives me a black screen even though i can hear the environment from my server so i was wondering if anyone could help me fix this as ive been told its a mission file error/problem

Wasnt quite sure where to put this so i apologise if it's in the wrong forum sections.

thanks in advance.

The 4 in the end is in the code? if yes delete this and tell me.

G1llam · July 8, 2018

Its not actually in the config file so im not sure why its there

GEORGE FLOROS GR · June 11, 2017

TIP:

You should probably reedit the title of the topic to ex :error with server files ,

if there is another person who is looking an answer for the certain issue to get benefit from.

G1llam · July 8, 2018

done, do you know what could possibly be causing the black screen

GEORGE FLOROS GR · June 11, 2017

Did you tried to run this now that you edit the file?

G1llam · July 8, 2018

i didnt have to edit it because the 4 wasnt in the file, i must have miss clicked when i was pasting it in

GEORGE FLOROS GR · June 11, 2017

I don't see any problem now.

You are trying to run a Life server.

Are you getting any error in your servers monitor or log - rpt ?

Are you sure that the mission that you are running is working?

G1llam · July 8, 2018

i got told by the server hosting company that theres no error message showing and its a mission file error

G1llam · July 8, 2018

but the thing is i cant think of what could be causing it

GEORGE FLOROS GR · June 11, 2017

The first thought should be , as i told you before , if you know that this mission is a working one and then ,

if the server has set up properly.

GEORGE FLOROS GR · June 11, 2017

It's depending also to the life server files and it might be also there the issue.

Here are the latest Life files , Server and Mission :

https://github.com/AsYetUntitled/Framework

G1llam · July 8, 2018

so what should i do now then?

G1llam · July 8, 2018

because im confused and dont really know what to do rn

G1llam · July 8, 2018

surely there has to be a specific file / line of code which is causing this issue

There might be an error maybe in the server life files.

I would suggest to find some files that you know that they are working , else you could also edit the files i sent you and see some tutorials about.

tRiKy_ch · February 17, 2017

are you sure that the unit you're trying to spawn with has a map in his inventory?

this issue

The black screen ,

is that the client is not initializing to the server due to error , probably in the life server files.

Don't waste your time to fix something , that you don't know for sure if it's working.

You can scan the whole files for the problem , but if you don't know that everything is running properly , you might get stuck with something else after.!

It's easy and very good to edit yourself the mission or find a working pack of files and there are a lot of tutorial to achive this !
