Problem making multiplayer games

[barbed_wire83]

Hi, I'm having problems making multiplayer games in BZ2 with the latest patch. Every time I try to make one I get a black screen that I have to alt-tab out of to get to the error that BZ2 throws, which is Internal Exception - refer to log file.

Can't find a way to upload a file so here's the log.

[Red Devil]

did you do a fresh install of bz2 and then lay 1.6.3 over it? plus, did you answer yes to the firewall and directx prompts during install?

[General BlackDragon]

ERR | debug:717 |17:23:26|54184 |Var is not an integer

Thats odd. Yeah, are you running anything other then stock BZ2 with patch 6.3?

[barbed_wire83]

Thanks for the help guys. I did a fresh install, then patched to 1.3.6.3, then added the UEP and VSR. Firewall and DirectX prompts were answered yes. I'm guessing the newest patch isn't compatible with UEP or VSR then?

[Ded10c]

UEP doesn't work with anything beyond 6.2 and isn't going to be updated. VSR is temperamental, but Zero Angel is working on it. Best play stock for now.

[barbed_wire83]

I see. Ok, thanks for the info guys.

[General BlackDragon]

VSR 4.3 will be better
