R5 Online

Post by **Tigereye** » Mon Nov 16, 2009 5:17 pm

The latest update to Allegiance has been placed on AutoUpdate. You should automatically upgrade the next time you log in.

Edit: Monday's problem where you could not log in with a ^token has been resolved. You can use your tokens again.
Also, a new ASGSClient and ASGSUpdater have been pushed out which should solve autoupdate problems on x64 systems, and solve compatibility with Windows 7. A manual download link for this ASGS update is available if you need it.

Thanks to everyone who made R5 happen,

Below are 3 fixes to R5's most common problems. Make sure you download files for the language your Windows install is in.
QUOTE The application was unable to load a required component, D3DX9_41.dll
To resolve this error message, simply download the latest DirectX files from Microsoft and install it.
Be sure to select the appropriate language for your computer or you could run into problems.[/quote]
QUOTE Application unable to load required component: MSVCP90.dll
To resolve this error message, download the VC++ 2008 SP1 dlls from Microsoft and install it.
Be sure to select the appropriate language for your computer![/quote]
[quote=""Tigereye""]If you are unable to autoupdate, and it appears your autoupdater is crashing, you will need to update manually. Download this zipfile and extract the three files inside as follows:Allegiance.exe should replace the Allegiance.exe located in your C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Allegiance folder (or wherever you installed Allegiance)AGC.dll should replace the AGC.dll located in your C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Allegiance folder (or wherever you installed Allegiance)newgamescreen.mdl should replace the newgamescreen.mdl file located in your C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Allegiance\artwork folder (or the "artwork" folder found wherever you installed Allegiance)
Once the 3 files are updated, doubleclick Allegiance.exe and click "Free Games" to view the Message Of The Day and autoupdate the rest of the way. Once the autoupdate completes, close Allegiance and log into ASGS as normal.[/quote]
For any other problems please contact the Helpline making sure to read the Read Me.

ImmZ Edit : Fixed broken link, added warning about language packs. Props to bp.

Just as a note, we have run into some problems with tokens. Not sure of the specifics myself, but if you're signing in with a token and having issues, try it without.

Please be aware, the non-Windows 7-compatbile ASGS 210 build is still on Autoupdate. You will need to redownload build 212 if you are using the newest OS from Microsoft.

List of changes:

Scroll works on f3
New f5 screen options
Hat views can be assigned to any button now
Middle mouse button = boost now
Booster effect changed, looks like it'll be easier to aim while boosting now
Graphics are smoother for some
All in station graphics all say "Imago Imago Imago" for some reason.

FYI - SpacePenguin, I've split your post into a new topic in the helpline.

For those of us who are mirroring the install, what exactly should we upload?

The installer's updated, but it looks like there will be an "addendum" release coming out soon, so the installer will be rebuilt again.
For now, sit tight.

Thanks for offering a mirror though!
