Guest Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Solution for me ..... add aliases 192.168.x.x and set gateway 192.168.x.x . ( I have 2 networks public and no public ) and now mtama connect corect .... , only from my NO PUBLIC ( eg 192.168.x.x ) IP for public not connect ... , but its another bug if setup and turn on welcome messages ( scripts MTA:mA : GRS ) serv sometime crash with no error just crash and last msg in log is connect player and my welcome messages ...

JacoB Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 They time out because they don't get the ping reply. I have successfully received a ping reply when connecting with this nickname: admin20590 Why? I have no idea. Trial and error I guess.. Link to comment
eAi Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 1.Q: Why does my MTA:mA time out after connect? A: This is a MTA bug wait for the patch I'm not sure why this is an MTA bug. The normal admin works fine (well enough) in my testing and other user's. They only have problems with MTAMA - surely that indicates that theres a bug in MTAMA?eAi Link to comment
MrJax Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Mine used to time-out on connect with our old fr4g servers. Works fine with the new Oxidehost ones. Maybe its something todo with server. Link to comment
blade109 Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 1.Q: Is it your fault? A: No. 4. Q: Do you care? A: No. Hmm is it your fault yaa ofcourse it is man ur the one whu started all this BS about scripting for mta i guess and for 4.do you care and if u dont care than why the hell are u on these forums if u dont care maybe thats the reason it wont work at all cause u didnt make right cause u never cared . Geez what a stupid thing to write aeron grow up ok ??? if u dont care than stop your scripting work now no one in this world cares about those whu dont care about there own work and creation.

Jani Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 stfu blade. actually a lot of people care, including a lot of people on this server. and its not "BS", have you ever seen a game with such a good administration tool? nope, didnt think so. and by the way, since you say its so crap, go make a better one and i'll believe you. your obviously lame and dont know anything about life, so just go and die. 1 more thing: i just looked at all of your posts and you seem like quite a ass, so i think your gonna get banned sometime soon.

Slothman Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 lol, i keep seeing blade posts telling people to shut up. blade; try not to flame so much, yer worse han the people complaining right now. Link to comment
Oli Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Aeron im having this time out problem on out uber1337.co.uk servers too. They start with 193.*.*.* My guess would be some change in the ping packets which needs addressing. Ill discuss it with you when you come online later. Link to comment

Ill look into this for next GRS release but i suspect its not a GRS bug Link to comment
Guest Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Ill look into this for next GRS release but i suspect its not a GRS bug it's server bug maybe some delay like 2 - 3 sec after conect new player then send welcome or nickserver msg resolved this problem ... only .5 server have this bug in .4.1 work fine .. btw GRS roxxx Oli , maybe its problem with "Server's memory usage increases very quickly" 400 - 500 mb after 4 hrs Link to comment

The normal admin works fine (well enough) in my testing and other user's. They only have problems with MTAMA - surely that indicates that theres a bug in MTAMA?eAi OK I tested a few thingy's: 1. It's not IP related. 2. I changed nothing to my login protocol and it always worked (0.2,0.3,0.4). 3. Sometimes MTA:mA can connect but just doesn't recieve ping or any other packets (While mIRC still listen to that port). 4. If I connect with Remote Admin true a linker (RemoteAdmin<=>mIRC<=>MTAServer) Remote Admin T/O and if i do it without the linker it doesn't. 5. I can only conclued that MTAServer is being pricky Link to comment
[TTH] WHY Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 .. is there anything change @ the admin tool of mta herself ? So yes, Tell it @ Aeron because that could be the problem (I Think if not OK just guessing ) maybe there are read packets changed (Does the admin server listen on other packets because there were bots ) You can't use packet sniffer now so a good reason for mta to change the packets... I Think"" that almost all packets are changed because all of the bots need to reconfigure because the packets are changed.. and packets sniffler doesn't work now more @ mta because they blocked that... PS Nice id of you foks so ? is there anything changed @ the packets reader ? OR am i now on a very bad path ? Link to comment
Bloodymess13 Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 stfu blade.... i just looked at all of your posts and you seem like quite a ass, so i think your gonna get banned sometime soon. BURN! now back on topic, I have two servers running, both on the same machine with windows 2000 installed. I have stopped the disconnect problem on my servers by using the external IP (64.139.247.9) address instead of using the local IP (192.168.*.* or 127.0.0.1). I have the exact same situation with the MTA client, when i use a local IP it will disconnect occasionally, but when i use the Global IP it will stay connected forever. Just curious, if your having the problem with the disconnect of MTAma, are you using a local IP or global IP to connect? Link to comment
darkdreamingdan Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 the bug was found, and it turned out that there was a major bug in MIRC, that shud be as the creators (khaled) fault this was reported in #mta by kent and aeron Link to comment
Aeron Posted February 3, 2005 Author Share Posted February 3, 2005 (edited) Bug solved! Cause of some lousy programming by one of the devs we discoverd a major bug in mIRC.
