Re: Computer freeze...here I thought I had it too!

I also have lines showing up on the main descent screen as it loads...the screen showing the planet and ship. I did not have these lines before.

Ideas?

Uh-oh, we've got another DC running around here. :D "Unable to load module" means it can't load the MOD that the server is running. You might want to re-install. Also, if you're running the Dual-Jewel version from Interplay, you'll want to grab the Dual-Jewel patch, not (or in addition to...

Jesus AceCombat just shut up. Failed to Initialize game module usually happens when you don't have the MOD (.d3m file) in your netgames directory. The following MODs come with Descent 3: Anarchy Team Anarchy Capture the Flag Hoard Entropy Monsterball Some of the other MODs include: Instareap Team-I...

Did you unzip the .mn3 file from the .zip file before you put it in your missions directory? I unziped the file into the missions3 directory. Right now I am having less trouble with this and more trouble with my other note. I get to the multiplayer screen...I put in an address...it shows the game.....

explain what you mean by "module" When I click on a server on descent.cx it loads the game via the exe. file. I click on the pilot and it sometime says...."error failed to open mn3 file" and then something about line 0. For the most part it simply says, "fail to initialize ...

You don't have the mission the server is running. The autodownload doesn't work when the game is autolaunched. I went to the missions and downloaded the level BEFORE joining the game? For example, on the mission abend2...I downloaded that level...made sure it was in the mission folder and then trie...

no response from server...HELP

Everytime I try to join a descent game using Kquery I get the message, "no response from server." I suspect it has something to do with the way my computer is setup. I have a microsoft router. Any suggestions?
