Headaches. Installed MWLL now what?
« on: January 17, 2010, 07:23:37 PM »
i patched crysis to 1.21. checked it.

i Downloaded the beta, and unzipped it into my crysis folder
i Copied that file and put it in my default user profile (its the only one i use), the joystick one.
i downloaded the newest version, openbeta-patch-0.1.0 . so i should be good to go. I just dont know how to join any servers. Should i be using the server list In-Game? or is there a client i need? i have game spy comrade but have no idea what it is or how to use it. any help would be appreciated.

So Far so good, now override the mwll with the openbeta-patch-0.1.0. Done, good.

Now execute the Launcher in the mwll folder, alternatively create a short-cut to it.
When in game go to Profile, and create a New Profile with your unique nickname, if this has not been done before.
You will be asked to verify it on your GameSpy account iirc. Verify it and return to the game.
Click Multiplayer.
Select a Server.

That I would un-install since there is no need for it if you have other means of chit chatting with your buddies on-line. Comrades is another means of communicating with friends on-line.

when you say you unzip it in the crysis folder, do you have all files unziped in subfolder "mods" ? do you see a new screen when you start the mod executable in the mods/mwll/  ? should be a new logo and you should see some mechs in background. also if you have the .rar release, note that some unrar tools have pain with subfolders and will just put you a 1.5 GB gardbage in the new folder

He probably has the same problem as me. When you enter crysis and you didn't tell him to launch the mod, it will put you in to vanilla Crysis game. If you go multyplayer there you will see Crysises servers and not MWLL ones. What you have to do is either make it so it launches mod directly (like the guys and guides are telling you) or you must go to MODS tab in Crysis and there click MWLL and launch, which will shutdown Crysis and launch the MWLL mod. (Inside the game, not anywhere else)

Fair warning, launching MWLL from the mods tab inside crysis will overwrite your actionmaps.xml it's a better idea to use the launcher that the devs provided. I even added the launcher to my steam menu by clicking "add a non-steam game" in steam and pointing it to the MWLL launcher.
