Nope. Still hanging in the same spot.

I'm stepping out again for about an hour, but I'll check in when I get back.

Well, it didn't work at first. So I deleted everything. Unziped the original package and then copied the last exe and now it all works. Should I have been deleting any files every time I copied over a new exe?

no it should have been ok, you were using a fresh install right? you werent importing old databases over from a pre alpha40 were you? dont use that exe though...I have to remove the debugging stuff...i'll upload one without all those debugging comments in a couple seconds for you.

Nope. Fresh and clean, like a spring... oops, broke into a commercial

You are amazing. Thanks. Hopefully, I'll have time to play soon.

I'm just glad its actually loading now

Still not sure what the problem was.

Speaking of clean,

Mr_Clean, test out the new pre7 exe and tell me if it also fixes your bug.

Steven,

Not sure if this helps but i also got the hanging at loading:ir with the xlobby2pre5 - I just removed the xusbuirt.dll from the plugins folder and she runs no problem. (I don't have a usbuirt).

Also the guys should watch out for the weather module coz it will try to update itself on xlobby start so it seems like it is hanging on my slow connection. If I disconnect from the internet before starting xlobby then no problems.

Later
Simon.

just dloaded and installed 2pre7

it hangs at loading: plugins now

i also did a fresh install of 40pre5 then replaced the exe with the pre7, still hangs

Empty the plugins folder (cut and paste everything somewhere else).

Works for me!

by **Mr_Clean** on Thu Apr 15, 2004 4:09 am

that worked, everything is running nice now, thanks

is there anyway i can use my old movies database with these new versions? i tried copying it over and it hangs, so i dont think its that easy. i had to manually do my old movies database and i dont feel like re-doing the whole thing again. (or maybe just a batch dload of the new details)
