Avp2 Problem: Can host server but cannot join my own server and other solutions.

Can host server but cannot join my own server?

This is caused by having different rez files specified on the command lines for the game server and the game client. The game client command line is the one visible when double clicking AvP2.exe -> Options. The game server has it's rez files specified in "customrez.txt".

Whenever I try to find a game it just closes the program! I am on Vista!!

Windows Vista has introduced a new feature that stops unwanted programs from starting and executing code on the users machine. However, this breaks a lot of compatibility with other programs.

Turn off UAC and try it again. You can find the option in your user account which is accessible via the control panel.

Is this compatible with the Bunny server mod?

Yes, it is. Install the Bunny mod, then install the master server mod (and yes, install the dedicated server from the patch). Add the avp2p5.rez to the customrez.txt and you're good to go.

I get an error when installing the mod, "could not write avp2p5.rez"?

Make sure you run the installer as an administrator.

Is this compatible with the Rommie server mod?

Yes, it is. Do download the latest Rommie server mod that has the patch built in, go

How about Mac support on this patch ?

For Mac the situation is even worse, since besides the missing tools (compiler) we don't have Macs.

World version is different from the server.

This is caused either because the server is using a map pack (UMP2 for example), mods, or because your AvP2 game installation was not updated to version 1.0.9.6 before applying the patch. Uninstall the master server patch, apply the official 1.0.9.6 patch, then re-install the master server mod.

im having the same problem on my WIN/ME.

What if you have xp?

Yes Xp......My sever runs like normal just dosen,t list it on severs list?
