help with modern combat modra

[lebmilano]

Hi i just downloaded the Modern Combat mod, i did not use the self extractor mentioned in the guide i used 7zip to extract the files to the coh folder, i managed to get into the game and it is working but its not patched and as it seems there is a problem with the servers as i keep getting the xml error, i downloaded the patches but how to install them ? i don't think any .exe file into those patches? do i need the self extractor for these? i tried copy pasting the files but the file version is still 1.000

What I did was install the base mod folder first. Then I downloaded all 5 patches and dropped each patch folder into the modern combat folder overwriting as I went. Start with the first patch and work your way up from there. Should work fine.

In case you need the link for the patches here it is: http://coh-moderncombat.com/patches

Moving to the appropriate forum.

how can i check that i successfully applied the patches? in the details for the .exe file i can still see its 1.000

[MAFB1993]

I had no way of checking that either but if you installed all 5 patches then you should be up to date.

It should say which version you are running in the bottom left side of the launcher

The XML error just means that the launcher can't connect to our site, which is down atm. You should still be able to use it for everything else.

Have you tried letting the launcher install the patches?

[lebmilano]

How can install the patches using the launcher?

[I_am_a_Spoon]

Just run it, it should try to update to the latest version.

Or is that not working with the site offline?

[lebmilano]

it wont update because it cant connect to the server

----------

the problem is that in multiplayer all of the games are filtered to me.."incompatible mode theme you: relicoh them: relicoh"..
it can't be that everyone hasn't updated :/

[I_am_a_Spoon]

It says that for people playing vCoH or other mods too. There aren't usually many people online unfortunately.

Are you sure it happens when you're trying to join MC games?

[lebmilano]

well you are right apparently not many people are playing MC online which is disappointing really.

Until yesterday only one MC game was available.

[I_am_a_Spoon]

Were you able to join it?

Its quiet normal for early in the week to be quiet. Being in Australia and diff time slot I run into that prob a bit too, but normally from thurs it picks up again. I never have trouble getting games over the weekend

[lebmilano]

Yes i was able to join one game.

Ok, well at least you know your version works.
