Title: ui_menus problem (Split from Demos thread)
Post by: Lopson on 2005-09-25, 10:23
That line is already in the autoexec.cfg file, and I still can't join, even though I run the game through a shortcut. I connect to the servers thorugh the "connect" command in the console. This is my autoexec file:// Created by Generations Arena. Please do not modify.

That looks correct. You don't have any extraneous pk3's in your Generations folder, or any subfolders that might have an improper copy of the file would you?

No. Every single pk3 that I have don't include any other menus.txt file. I even changed the quadfactor back to 4.

Ok, check your q3config.cfg files in both generations and baseq3 for that statement. See if it's correct.

A screenshot in-game error. If you want I can post a pic of the console as well.

Post by: Phoenix on 2005-09-28, 23:07
Ok, next step. Go to your generations folder. Open pak9_genv99e.pk3 using Winzip. Sort by path. Look for the ui path, and see if menus.txt is even there.

Yes it exists :// menu defs
//

loadMenu { "ui/main.menu" }

Then you've got me completely stumped. If the file's in there, and your pk3's are right, and your configs are right, I am out of explanations. Best thing I can recommend is to backup anything in your generations folder you want to keep, uninstall Gen, and do a clean install of .99e and .99f.

He could possibly have a pk3 that is being executed AFTER the generations pk3 which contains the ui menu.
Title: Re: ui_menus problem
Post by: Lopson on 2005-10-23, 00:32
No extra .pk3 has the file, and the problem still continues. I know that you guys will probably ask me to reinstall Gen, but if you can find another way, i'd be good.
Title: Re: ui_menus problem

The problem is, why can't if find the file if it's there? If you have:
1) The correct version of Quake III Arena
2) The correct version of Generations Arena
3) Generations is installed in the proper folder
4) No extra pk3 files in your generations folder
5) No missing pk3 files in your generations folder
6) No extra pk3 files in baseq3 with the same name as any in your generations folder
7) No extra pk3 files in baseq3 that could be overriding the ui_menuFiles statement.
8) The correct autoexec.cfg in your generations folder
9) Your autoexec.cfg and q3config.cfg in your generations and baseq3 folders all have the correct ui/menuFiles statements
10) No pk3 files that are damaged
11) No third-party script, hack, bot, launcher, or other program that could cause interference.
12) Quake III Arena running from a shortcut to launch Generations
13) The shortcut's path has "+ set fs_game generations"
14) Your ui_menufiles cvar, when checked from the console after launching Generations, shows the correct file.
Then there is no reason I can think of that would be causing this missing file statement EXCEPT that the ONLY difference between Central and Euro is that Central has sv_pure set to "1". It's got to be rejecting the pak9_genv99e.pk3 file. Are you absolutely sure you didn't make any changes to this file, like replacing sound effects, etc?
