| ==Playable at the moment?==
| |
| It might seem so!

|
| |
| In last hours I have seen several players successfully launching games and playing.
| |
|
| |
| ==Registration Failed. Reason: Invalid md5 sum.==
| |
| Try a different username. (Without special characters or spaces.)
| |
|
| |
| ==Singleplayer?==
| |
| There is a singleplayer tab but with a fresh install it will not work.
| |
| (Game files and engine are missing)
| |
|
| |
| '''Solution:''' Create a multiplayer battleroom with the button at the bottom and make it private by giving it a password.
| |
|
| |
| The lobby will download the necessary files. Afterwards you can select the evolutionRTS game in singleplayer menu, or stay in this battleroom and play. See below for adding bots.

| |
|
| |
| ==Automatic download of game files does not work==
| |
| NOTE: the GAME file.
| |
|
| |
| Best idea is to wait a bit, the lobby should eventually download it.
| |
| If it really absolutely does not work:
| |
| 1. Go to http://packages.springrts.com/builds/
| |
| 2. download the .sdz with the latest evolutionRTS version. (Currently that is 7.37 but check vs what is played in lobby)
| |
| 3. Put the .sdz file into: Documents/My Games/Spring/games
| |
| Do not unzip it, just move it there. When you're done, close and reopen the lobby.
| |
|
| |
| As said, that is only for advanced users and should not be necessary.
| |
|
| |
| ===Cannot start command: Downloading Engine 96.0: assign: The parameter is incorrect===
| |
|
| |
| Are you on windows XP? Unfortunately the lobby does not work with Windows XP. You can use the Java Weblobby version by visiting http://www.weblobby.evolutionrts.info directly or you can try a different lobby: http://steamcommunity.com/app/291150/discussions/0/540738051772337468/
| |
|
| |
| ===Download stuck at 100%===
| |
| Close the lobby and start it again.
| |
|
| |
| If that doesn't help, you can try this:
| |
| Download this file... http://springrts.com/dl/buildbot/default/master/96.0/win32/spring_96.0_minimal-portable.7z
| |
|
| |
| Unzip the files into: Documents\My Games\Spring\weblobby\engine\96.0 (if this path doesn't exist, you should create it)
| |
|
| |
| Start Lobby
| |
|
| |
| ==AI does not work!==
| |
| The evolutionRTS AI is the "Survial Spawner AI."
| |
| It spawns random enemies for you to shot at.
| |
|
| |
| The NullAI bot can also be used: It does ''nothing'' which is nice to try out the game without enemies.
| |
|
| |
| ==Sandbox mode? I want to try the game without being rushed!==
| |
| Start a singleplayer game against the NullAI bot.
| |
|
| |
| ==Missions?==
| |
| Not there yet.
| |
|
| |
| ==It crashed!==
| |
| There is a logfile: [[Infolog.txt]]
| |
|
| |
| The page also explains how to find and share it. You can post it in forum, on steam or in chat.
| |
|
| |
| ==Which maps should I play?==
| |
| Eye of Horus is a good map that works for team games, free-for-all, 1v1 and with bots.
| |
|
| |
| ==Why so many problems?==
| |
| Surprised by too many players.
| |
|
| |
| ==Hooray, I am ingame! How to play?==
| |
| http://www.wiki.evolutionrts.info/doku.php/evolution_rts:quick_start_guide
| |
|
| |
| Or just try out things :)
| |
|
| |
| ==How to chat ingame?==
| |
| Press the RETURN key and type your message.
| |
|
| |
| ==Graphics problems! / the game runs very bad!==
| |
| Some problems can probally be solved by the general spring-engine FAQ: [[FAQ:trouble]]
| |
|
| |
| ==Cursor is painfully slow!==
| |
| Click Settings (the wrench) > Interface > Mouse Cursor > enable Hardware Cursor
| |
|
| |
| ==As a player, how can I help?==
| |
|
| |
| 1. '''If you have bugs to report''': It is okay to do so in the steam forum: http://steamcommunity.com/app/291150
| |
|
| |
| (Or if you know how to use the google.code bugtracker: https://code.google.com/p/evolutionrts/issues/list )
| |
|
| |
| '''Give as much ''info'' as possible:'''
| |
| *Operation system
| |
|
| |
| *computer hardware (laptop or desktop, cpu, ram, graphics card,..)
| |
|
| |
| *This logfile: [[Infolog.txt]]
| |
|
| |
| *Lobby logfile: /Documents/My games/Spring/weblobby/'''weblobby.log''' , share via pastebin.com
| |
|
| |
| *Screenshots can be uploaded to imgur.com or similiar
| |
|
| |
| After a while check back on your post, devs might need more informations from you!
| |
|
| |
| Reporting bugs in chat is pretty much useless, there get overlooked there or forgotten.
| |
|
| |
| 2. '''If you can play:''' help others players with their problems in chat.
| |
|
| |
| 3. Be patient :)
