Developer Blog 29 - Napoleonic Wars Patch 1.21

[Nero_]

Can't really feel a difference regarding melee, other than the admin whitelist + password thing, patch seems good

[Fungus]

I'm seeing just as many pokes and if anything more teleporting through people than ever.

[Ted]

thanks for putting time in to try and improve the game more

improve ?? ?? ??

You could improve this game and forum by finally deleting yourself.

Uhm, any chance someone might know where I can find the new Module System with the latest patch? :3

Would've been nice if they added the 88th to the British roster.

Some people complain that the white list stopped working, actually the White list works fine.

We only removed the auto admin without password on GUID.

The reason is that you can spoof ID's by hacking the network data, the server would accept you, and hand you Admin.
and then you can destroy a server, ban everyone and the key auth server would only catch on that your ID is invalid in 20 to 60 seconds. and you get kicked off the server. by then the damage is done.

So the white list still works, but you need to enter the password too, its basically 2 factor authentication, you need to have the correct GUID + a password.

Also in the bottom of the scripts file is the commented out lines that auto give admin to certain GUID's in the whitelist, you can uncomment that code if you don't fear the security issue.

Enjoy.

Thanks for the patch but is this going to be the last one or you gonna hold on touching NW until you finish everything else

I have 2 issues with the new patch;

1- The in-game game type changing function is not working, it's locked for some reason.

2- Server keeps opening a map named "Rhenish" itself, even though its not in the config file.

Can you please explain if these are bugs or is there a way to fix these issues.

This is pretty much surely the last one ever.

These things we don't have at all, I would assume its due to mods you put on your server or your client side, nothing we can fix. make sure you check integrity of your local files for steam, and dont run broken mods on your game or server.

[yecgga]

Both were my mistakes. Thank you for helping me to fix them @Vincenzo

Nobody would do that. Takes too long for the server to reply if you try bruteforcing a GUID. trust me I tried it...

But people know the userID of the admins because they once joined another server for instance.

Trouwens leuk om jou hier nog actief te zien.
