Sgt Kabukiman 0 Posted March 13, 2002 I doubt that it has to do with the Custom-face.... What happens if you choose another face (one from the original faces)? Does it connect then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Morph 0 Posted March 13, 2002 What version of ofp are you using? Could be you are using an older version and trying to connect to someone who has 1.46.. I doubt it very much it has anything to do with the custom face...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gen_Faculty 0 Posted March 13, 2002 im running the lates version 1.46 i belive it is and yeh it does connect when i put another face from the orignal list but when i put my own it it dont work. Ive also found out that if i take the custom face out of the users/my name folder and just have the white plain model it worksl. So i thought it might be that face i was trying to us but i got a face that my friend was using that worked for him and that didnt work for me so i havent a clue whats up there..

ALDEGA 0 Posted March 13, 2002 The only thing that I can imagine is that your face is in an unsupported format. Are you sure it's a regular non-progressive jpg? Perhaps you can upload it somewhere, then we can try it and see if it's the face or your OF installation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gen_Faculty 0 Posted March 13, 2002 i dont think it's tha face coz my friend uses it and he sent it to me and i tryed it and nothing, and also i sent it to another friend that didnt know about custom faces he tryed it and it worked Oh my connection is 56k i dont know if that effects it? but it should'nt the faces worked for me before but they suddenly went shit up, ive tryed re-installing thegame too and nothing..

Placebo 29 Posted March 13, 2002 How large is the custom face? Perhaps the problem is the fact the game gets delayed while your custom face gets sent to everyone, I personally prefer people not to use them when I host, sure it's fun and all to have a custom face but it slows the people on my server who have dialup Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gen_Faculty 0 Posted March 13, 2002 so using a custom face slows up the game and user in it damn oh well i really still would like to sort thisproblem out anyway. you say u have a server .... i need a server for my squad have a look at my site http://www.squadcw.77th.com would be cool if u could do server for us even join Thanx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted March 14, 2002 Naaah I "run" a server, not "have" a server, slight difference I have cable and as Britain is still 3rd world when it comes to broadband I often host a game for my friends to play on, if I'm not downloading stuff when I'm sleeping or at college I'll throw it up as a dedicated server but it's not a 100% regular thing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
