Stupid Error and some questions

[Thorius]

Hi there!
Everytime i try to open a chest i get the error "Cheating Attemp(fake player count)logged FN"
And not only when opening a chest,but very often when a stronger creature spawns,for example:wolves in thornlands,a skeleton (i think its a skeleton i see when it spawns)in bloodrose when i take the second quest from the elf to take a key from his wardrobe and etc.
Please give me a solution..tell me what to do...i aint no cheater...wtf!?
And now my questions...
Well,ive played MS/MSC only with a friend in a server he had made...and first we thought we know almost everything about the game....since we entered this cool forum,then we understood we know nothing...
None of us have had a weapon with a name...except me,i had the Calrian's mace once maybe 1.5 years ago when there wasnt a riddlemaster yet...so..
1:Id be very happy to know if there's a way to see my enemy's health
left...
2o i have to kill Keledros to get the new spells (Lol i cant kill him,even though im sure ive done one time atleast 2k dmg before he killed me)
3:Ill tell u all the maps ive ever gone to...and i'd be grateful if someone tells me,how to get on the others,
Edana,thornlands,Ms Cave,Goblin Town,Sfor,Calruin,Challs,Bloodrose,Heras,Helena,Keledrosprelude,Keledros Ruins,Daragoth and Deralia...i think these are all the maps...
So i beg someone to tell me for example Ms cave=>goblin town,Sfor=>Calruin,Helena=>Daragoth....pls pls pls...
4:What is for the map Challs,there are some cool Mobs there to kill,but id like to know if there is a map after challs,cause i cant find a way or any quest for it...is it only for Grinding for XP?
5:Is it normal when i complete a quest,then disconnect and enter again,its like i havent done the q at all?For example in Bloodrose i kill the Boss bear,take the second quest to kill one Necromancer or his apprentice and when i disconnect and enter again i have to kill the bear again...lol wtf? Is this normal
Well thats all.. Thanks...please i need some answers or ill stay the same noob like im now...!

1. There is an item called the Bloodstone Ring that allows you to see your opponent's health, it's the product of a huge quest.
2. Keledros isn't the only one with magic spells now
3. This thread has a somewhat updated list of maps and their connections.
4. Challs contains some monsters, a boss, and a transition to a rather difficult map known as Wicard Oven.
5. This is normal, it is a measure to prevent cheating. You shall have to do the quest while the map is on the server.

Hope that helps. I trust you are running the latest betapackage, and have downloaded the custom, [FN] approved maps off of thothie.com/ms . Happy hunting

Well i first downloaded cs 1.6 then msc 1.0,then 1.1 and then the Jan2008a package,is this all?
Btw 10x very much man...and hm ...what were u saying about this ring that provides the ability to see the enemy's hp?
And ...what about my error...its the worse of all...if i didnt have i maybe could have answered to my question by myself....(might have,not could have ),but now.....i cant even open a chest....Wooot!?
OMGGGG i didnt even think there were so many maps....so cool....this is the coolest game ...
Umm..i have 2 new question....From Keledrosprelude i know only one way to another map and its the ruins....where is this badlands...
And i see there is the frozen summit and Melanion ruins from Bloodrose...lol....where are those maps....i find two empty places on the wall as if there should be maps there,but they dont leed to anywhere....one is up up high and one is when u continue to walk from the den of the big bear,there are some stones fallen down infront of the empty space....are those the places,or ...im just to stupid for this game...?

 

[Sabre]

No clue on the error, thar. Melanion Ruins does not exist yet, and the Frozen Summit is available at thothie.com/ms.
Are you running MS:C through Steam? It is not compatible with the old WON systems, or something like that.

Actualy,at the moment im playing in "single player" i just "establish a kingdom" I cannot enter none of the servers,because of some stupid filters.... ;(

 

[The Man In Black]

It's too early in the "morning" for me to read yer walls of text (no offense), but I was able to pick out the game calling you a cheater for chests. Do you have bots on your server?

 

[Thorius]

Bots?No...i said everything what ive installed...no bots,no cheats,no bullsh1tz....
And another question...Well im now in Calruin,and i saw that the wall is broken behind the first door leading to calrian,and well i just passed the first riddlemaster and there is another wall broken,just before the stairs....but i cant break none of them to enter...im used to breaking such walls when i see similar...like in thornlands the passage with the 2 skeletons and the chest....And...i heard of a boss named Lord BS in Calruin....where is he...does he spawn after i kill the big spider queen and calrian?i twice killed them both and the a big wall just before the spider lair,fully broke and teleportad me to a strange arrea..where i died before i could even wink.... what is this?Sorry for my curiousity...
Just passed the 3d riddlemaster but calrian killed me,i now cant go back,the door is locked,and hahaha the wall i talked about ...well i can enter now...

 

[The Man In Black]

You're talking about the wall with the little crack in it? That breaks later - you don't break it yourself.

Lord BS (Ingame: Garronhroth(sp) the Blacksmith) becomes available after killing Calrain. If you go back to the spawn room, the path to the BS is to the left, while Calrain's is on the right.

I have a feeling there will be many questions once you get in there ;-)

 

[Thorius]

I wont get in there hahahah i have only 335 hp and my best shot is 45 dmg with kick ....hahaha how do i expect to kill calrian all by myself....i killed his guards...but....no chance....hits too fast and his range is awesome.....well....i guess ill be going to challs to grind for LVL.... thanks for everything....Now only the error is my problem... ...and maybe some information about the ring with the HP of the enemy...
Wow on the left? lol Realy...i remember when i played one-two years ago (i managed to kill calrian only because he couldnt go up the stairs and i was a bower ...he didnt even hit me once....)so this door opens ,it was a strange passage and then a orange room..with a absolutely normal troll there...(not that normal because,now all the big mobs are made smaller.....the boss spiders were 2 times bigger,and the trolls werent 2 times bigger than u but 6 times....)
Where can i find better gloves,i have the first ones...the strapped leather gloves...and dont increase my dmg at all...maybe with 1-2 dmg...

 

[Sabre]

Sounds like you're playing the first version of calruin...You should get calruin2, and the same for keledrosprelude.

No no....this was 1-2 years ago,not now.. i was just wondering of the big changes ..i have Calruin 2 and Keledros2..
And now a new question...In MS Caves...There is an Enchanted Pillar,which tells me to go away.....does this lead somewhere...like Wicard Oven(which doesnt work yet) or D.Temple...?

Nope, it's a quest-related area
Also, Wicard Oven does indeed work.

Well when i try entering it from Challs,i get an error,saying something of a missing database(im not sure,gotta see the error again).Is D. Temple the Enchanted Pillar,and if not where is that Temple... ?

 

[Sabre]

It's not connected to the worldmap, you have to get to it by changelevel.

 

[Thothie]

Wicard Oven is connected to the world through Challs...

Lack of Steam messes up the player counter? Interesting...

So any idea how to stop this error thothie...i installed Steam...but i still get the error...(playing in a listen server)...

 

[Thothie]

It's telling you that you're faking the player count, on Steam? :| No clue...

 

[The Man In Black]

I'm fairly certain (or WAS fairly certain) that it's the lack of Steam, because the only time that error should come up is if game.players is inaccurate, which, from looking at the function, could really only happen if the below line failed.

SteamCheck = pPlayer->AuthID();

It would have to return something that didn't start with STEAM_ , which, with a hacked version of MS:C (and the like) could be entirely possible. Now that he has a copy of steam.. I don't know what's up...

 

[Thorius]

Well....ok now...please explain to me how to use that steam or do i have to use it or only install it...because i installed it in D:/games/Halflife/MSC
the steam icon is down in my hotbar...soo...this is all...i enter the game the same way i used to?Cause there is no difference...except some new .dll's and stuff in my MSC directory.... :?

 

[The Man In Black]

...:|

1. Install Steam like a normal program - in its own folder and such.
2. Buy and install Half-Life to Steam (generally done through steam)
3. Go through Half-Life's Training Room (Launch THROUGH STEAM)
4. Install MS:C and the latest betapack in the proper Steam directories (should be automagically generated as half-life\msc) (Make sure Steam is closed while you're installing)
5. Launch MS:C THROUGH STEAM.

A friend is going to get one from his dad's store..perfect...
So the only thing i didnt understand is...how to launch ms:c throught steam?

 

[The Man In Black]

Under Steam you'll find a bunch of tabs - one of them is called "My Games". If you go there (and have MS:C properly installed), MS:C will appear on the list of games. Double click it to launch the game.

 

[Thorius]

Did it...entered the game...went to the chest in Heras where the is a sign "Icewind" or sth ....and got the error again....naaah....
Btw it didnt appear...i had to browse it ..to search for the hl.exe

 

[The Man In Black]

And this is after installing Half-Life properly?

 

[Thorius]

I didnt install it...this friend of my who played with me installed it while i was going for some ciggarettes...Well i dont have any problem with HL....i think so.. :?
