Can''t connect to global server with Evolutions mod

Sat Dec 27, 2003 2:15 pm by Nickless V2

When I run Chips Evolutions mod I can't connect to the global server.
I can connect to the global server with any other mod activated.
I tried using the fldirectip.hta program wich lets you connect to a server directly without connecting to the global server, but I think I did something wrong, because it won't work. Although I followed instructions to the letter.

So it's two questions:

1. What's up with my FL when I run Evolutions?
2. How do I use the fldirectip.hta program correctly?

Thanks again in advance

Edit: Damn spelling.

Ok, I know it's the holidays and all, but is there no technical advanced person on this forum who can help me?

if using the direct connect or adding the IP on the icon then you need to have the port number as well, most use 2302. so you would have 000.00.000.00:2302

I use the file fldirectip.hta wich is located in the ...\freelancer\exe\ folder
I fill in the ip in the top box and the port (default 2302) in the second box.
Somehow I think this proggy should do everything automaticaly but all it does is startup FL straight into the main menu. No connecting to any ip addy at all.
