with new version server dont start correct

[dtmaster79]

When I want to start my server (not Torch), it only starts until the plugin is loaded. Then you can't go any further. Here is an excerpt of the log.

You need to have 0Harmony.dll as well in the same folder as MultigridProjectorDedicated.dll. Apparently the plugin fails to load it for some reason. Both are included in the current MultigridProjectorDedicated-v0.4.15.zip file.

[dtmaster79]

I have the file in the folder. I have both dll in one folder. I deleted the old ones and replaced them with the new ones. And then the server started. So it can't be because of the missing dll.

After your message I switched off the server completely. both files were re-inserted. Same message again.

Are you running this Dedicated Server locally on your machine or at a game server hosting provider?

[dtmaster79]

No, it doesn't run on my local PC. And no, I don't use game server hosters (Nitrado, Gportal, etc). I host it myself on my root server.

I put version 0.4.13 back on it for testing. It works immediately. I'm also with you in the discord. My name there is: Tino / dtmaster

[viktor-ferenczi]

Changes made since 0.4.13:

• https://github.com/viktor-ferenczi/multigrid-projector/pull/44
• https://github.com/viktor-ferenczi/multigrid-projector/pull/46

Question is which one of these may cause your issue?

[dtmaster79]

So far only the 0.4.15. I can't tell you a version 0.4.14. There is no 0.4.14 to download.

[viktor-ferenczi]

It is safe to use 0.4.13 for now. Once the major game update drops I will release a new version. 0.4.14 was only for the SE beta. 0.4.13 has the same features as 0.4.15, only change is that 0.4.15 can disable the code verification causing issues on Proton (Linux).

[viktor-ferenczi]

Also, MGP 0.4.13 on the server can be used with the latest MGP client plugin from Plugin Loader, so there should be no issue with compatibility either.

Thanks for the info.
