SERVER IS UP

[Tomato]

Yes, you heard right!

Steel Warrior is back in action! The network problems are fixed, and the server is functioning properly.

Here's what you need to know:
The server will be on periodically for testing from now until August 14. At that point, the server will be back to 24/7 status.

Barring any further issues, I'm going to start some new projects for Steel Warrior!

Have fun, guys!

Logged in fine. Chose my character fine. Before i could do anything when i entered the game though....

Run-time error -2147024770 (8007007e)
Automation error.

-_-

[Tomato]

Hum.. have you tried the usual things (reinstalling)?

[Offlinekillerda]

Yes i did that right after i got the error.
I reinstalled and tried, then i installed the 7-zip manual patch. No difference in either.

[Tomato]

Hmm.. what's yer OS?
Also make sure you have the newest DirectX installed

[Offlinekillerda]

Windows XP.
No previous problems at all.
Direct X is up to date.

[Tomato]

Hmm.. alright, I'll give it some more thought. In the meantime, is everyone else connecting okay? I got my friend online without any problem.

so the server is up now? It's offline for me.

Re-register your DirectX DLL. There should be a directx7 dll or something in the steel warrior directory. Find its path and press Winkey+r, type regsvr32, and paste the path in as well as the DLL name.
so like.
"regsvr32 c:\dicks.dll"


Try this.

Here's some shiny pictures, but a slightly different method:

i can get online now but it says my account no longer exists. So i lose all of my old characters?

[Tomato]

The server was wiped about 7 months ago. :/
It's an attempt to re-stabilize everything and have a fresh start!

Sorry :C Don't wanna lose any more veteran players than we already have Dx

would the assassin weapons work with the mercenaries? They are the same character type, just different name.

Completely uninstalled my Steel Warrior because the other options did not work. When i installed again this error came up in the installation. It let me finish the installation. After i ran the manual patch i logged on. Then had the same problem as before. I tried the 2nd option that you gave and it did nothing, and i couldn't quite understand the first one.

This is the error from installation:
Failed to register COM (ActiveX) control: C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash8.ocx
Failure code returned by DllRegisterServer (0)

I followed that and found the file it referred to. The file path is correct so i do not know what the problem is.

Also, RSinden, the Assassin weapons are for the current Battlemage. The Ninja weapons are for the current Mercenary. Oh, and most of the spells lvls 60+ are broken.
