    ATAG Goes Mech Warrior LL Online!!!

    Hi all, as of today server #2 will be offering MechWarrior Living Legends for online play!

    After hearing good things about it from Bliss and Squirrel, I decided to buy the game through Steam and give it a try, it turned out to be a very enjoyable game. After playing for awhile we decided to put it up on the server and spread the word about it. For those who aren't familiar with the game it's actually a mod that was created for "Crysis Wars" which ends up playing and feeling like a brand new game. Instead of running around in a hi-tech combat suit, you get to run around in giant, hi-tech robots, tanks, planes, hovercraft and other assorted gizmos and best of all you can have fun and blow up your friends while doing it!

    For anyone who doesn't have the game yet Steam is selling it for around 10 US dollars right now, which is very cheap. If you do decide to purchase it through Steam, you end up getting "Crysis Warhead" and "Crysis Wars" in a bundle, the former being a single player game and the latter being a game designed solely for online play. Once you do that all you need to do is download and install the MWLL mod and you should be good to go. I have to warn people that the Steam version has a flaw in the installer regarding serial numbers and online play, but I'll be doing a quick thread on a fix for it, or if anyone has any problems they can contact me and I'll help them out.

    The Server name is listed as "ATAG_MWLL_Brawl" which can be found in the in-game server listing, but if anyone wants to direct connect the ip is:216.52.143.205:64087. People are also welcome to use our TS3 server which now has a set of channels made for the ATAG MWLL server. In any case I hope people have fun with this one I know myself, Bliss and others are.

    Ok. I'm up for this, but I'll need a step by step similar to what Knuckles had for HSFX.

    1) I already have Crysis Wars on disc. Do I just install this or do I need to install Crysis Warhead too? (The original Crysis is already on my PC)

    2) Will I need any official updates to Crysis Wars before installing MWLL? If so, where from?

    3) Where do I get MWLL? (couldn't see a download section on their website, or do I have to join and login first?)

    4) I have an X-box controller or my G940 - which is better/more appropriate?

    5) Is trackIR useable?

    6) Are there AI enemies online or just Live Homo Sapiens?

    7) I'm bloody scared.

    Re: ATAG Goes Mech Warrior LL Online!!!

    Okay this morning I actually switched the game server from server #2 to server #1. Server #1 is a physical machine with more memory and processing power so players should now see an increase in performance and connection quality. I also need to mention that the direct connect for the game server is now 216.52.148.29:64087.

    Sweet! Last night was pretty fun. Can't believe we filled the server up within a few hours of it going live.

    Crysis wars is all you need. That is the online version of the game where MWLL runs from!

    2.) I honestly don't know about updates, but I thought Crysis was installed through steam? If yours is that way, it should update automatically.

    3.) Right here http://www.mwlldownload.com/ Just download the latest beta. It will install automatically to Crysis wars. The download button is odd though.. It's the button that looks like ////////// So remember to click that!

    4.) We've all been using mouse and a keyboard.. Tried the joystick, rudder pedal, throttle combo and it was just to difficult to aim

    5.) No

    6.) Only live players

    7.) I am too

    Np guys.. It's really fun. Just hop on TS and I'll get your control stuff all sorted along with some hints on playing. This is really tactical. Right weapon, mech, tank, etc., for the right map scenario.

    The server got populated really quickly as well.

    Hi Chaps,

    I believe I'm all installed-up properly but I get "Server Authentication Failed" when I try and join the server. I can join other servers Ok.

    I've seen that error somewhere else before, all rather familiar

    Any helpful suggestions?

    Cheers,

    Septic.

    Hi Septic - Watchman had the same problem when he bought Crysis through the steam sale. The authentication failure is because steam thinks you have an invalid cd key.

    Here's the fix: http://www.mechlivinglegends.net/201...cd-key-issues/

    And hop on TS

    Thanks for the help Bliss.

    That link describes exactly my error and gives what seems to be the fix I need (well, actually that's someone else but I best not go into that here).

    So, I'm absolutely confident that I'm certain I've probably followed the destructions in the link to the letter, I think, but I still get the error.

    Re: ATAG Goes Mech Warrior LL Online!!!

    Same problem here Septic...
    Tried the fixes described here where you edit the key written in your registry aswell as "installscript.vdf".
    Neither worked, then i downloaded : cryhammer.exe.
    Don't know if it's safe..but who cares when your key doesn't work anyway.
    After manually entering the key it checks if it's valid (with and without hashes) ...and mine is invalid both times.
    Next step..contact EA support and ask for a new key. joy

    Not sure if i'll even bother as one guy recieved 3 invalid keys in a row from them. Might just bug Steam and demand a refund.
    Amusing how you need Steam+gamespy+securom+punkbuster just to play these days, thank god it doesn't use origin too.

    Re: ATAG Goes Mech Warrior LL Online!!!

    Hey guys just a quick note, some of those tutorials are incorrect in that they show the fix as
    this: 11111-11111-11111 or this: 11111-11111-11111-11111
    when it should be
    this: 1111-1111-1111-1111-1111

    Also the regedit tree should look like
    this:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Electronic Arts\Electronic Arts\Crysis Wars\ergc

    and the DWORD value should be this: 1111-1111-1111-1111-1111 , with no extra characters such as %. So 5 sets of 4, not 4 sets of 5 or 3 sets of 5.

    Hope that helps.

    Cryhammer tool checks the key in every possible format, connects to gamespy and returns whatever gamespy says.
    In my case (and I bet Septic's too): Invalid CD Key

    Re: ATAG Goes Mech Warrior LL Online!!!

    Warhound that's odd because at first Cryhammer returned an invalid key for my serial # and after changing it to the format I just described it worked. Now it could very well be that the cd key you have is invalid, but the chances of someone, (not yourself) buying Crysis through Steam during the summer sale and having an invalid cd key that isn't resolved by changing the entry format would be strange indeed. You might have a different issue but the one I'm describing has nothing to do with an invalid key, it has to do with the way Steam is entering that information into the registry to begin with. That's why I'm hoping it's a fix for people like Septic and maybe you too if you have another look at it.

    Re: ATAG Goes Mech Warrior LL Online!!!

    Sadly I tried the fix Bliss and you posted (which is the exact same as the linked thread in my first post), retried it ,proofread it ,reinstalled ,retried again and again and again, dug deeper and stumbled on cryhammer.exe and multiple other people with invalid CD-keys.

    If you want I'll PM you my key and you can play around with it all you like..get it working and you can even keep it.

    Sorry for being irate, but after spending a few hours poking at it and contacting EA without a solution yet..I am more than slightly annoyed.

    Well I'm sorry you're having problems and I'm not sure what else to do. I completely understand your frustration and it pisses me off that paying customers have to go through this garbage whether it be a Steam version of Crysis, or problems that we have to deal with on the server side because CLOD has to use Steam as a middle man. Companies are so paranoid about having their profits nibbled at by pirates they screw their paying customers over again and again. Every game I've purchased through Steam has had issues directly relating to it having to run through Steam at some point and I honestly cringe every time I have to decide whether to hit the purchase button at the Steam store. In any case I hope you get it resolved because MWLL is really a fun game.

    Thanks for the help Watchman.

    I checked with regedit and my key was entered in there without the dashes, I had altered the installscript file as per the link Bliss gave, with the dashes etc. I added the dashes in the registry but get the same 'server authentication 3' error. I rechecked afterwards in regedit and the dashes were still there.

    Luckily for me, as you chaps are aware, I'm a level-headed type, not prone to displays of anger or any emotion really. I'm calm, everyday I'm calm, thinking of my safe secure place, calmly.

    It's only a couple of quid I know but I don't have many couple of quids.

    Well Septic, it's just not right. I'm not sure how many people are in this situation but perhaps the guys at MWLL will be able to do something about it via a patch or an update, it's just that it really sucks.

    Re: ATAG Goes Mech Warrior LL Online!!!

    Thanks for the offer Watchman but don't really have time to try n fix it till this evening (US afternoon?) ..will hop on TS then if you're there.

    @Septic..try the cryhammer.exe(made by the MWLL-guys) linked a few posts up. If you enter your key manually and check the box "check with and without dashes". Then if it reports an invalid CD-key there is nothing you can do but contact EA... as Gamespy itself sees the key as invalid and all MWLL servers need a valid key.
    This isn't the case with most Warhead or Wars servers as they mostly don't do a CD-key check, but the ones that do(mostly punkbuster enabled ones) will refuse entry aswell.
