Hi guys,

I tried to join a multiplayer server, which went well until I tried to spawn into the game. It loads 100%, but it either shows an error where it cannot extend the list, or crashes. Could someone please advise what it may be? Thanks!

Hello Willis,

Windows Defender, antivirus, internet connection? You probably know way more about multiplayer than most people, and I am certainly not able to be of any help. Eventually, if and when you will have found the solution to the issue, please come back to tell us more about it.
Thanks in advance,
Luc

Hi Luc,

So I did find out that if the map is just plain ocean, it works fine. But once the map is Rotterdam or The Solent, etc, it doesn't work. I'm not sure why this happens but probably something with the loading of the map.

Hello Willis,

Did you reinstall SSEx, I see that you launched an MP session in Sydney ?
Except for some bad file error, the only reason to prevent an environment to be launched is that it doesn't match the server environment data. Wrong build number, missing file?
Here are the folders containing environment related data:

The graphical environment representation
X:\Vstep\ShipSimExtremes\Projects\ShipSimExtremes\Content\Environments

The environment SSEx configuration
X:\Vstep\ShipSimExtremes\Projects\ShipSimExtremes\Data\Environments

Launchers:
X:\Vstep\ShipSimExtremes\Projects\ShipSimExtremes\Game\Environments

Common environment objects
X:\Vstep\ShipSimExtremes\Projects\ShipSimExtremes\Data\Entities\EnvironmentObjects

eventually, some specific environment act files, containing added data like bouncing limits
X:\Vstep\ShipSimExtremes\Projects\ShipSimExtremes\Data\Entities\Dynamics

Regards,
Luc

Hi Luc,

Yes SSE is working normally so far.  I am trying to troubleshoot ShipSim 08. I'll keep working on this and hopefully find a solution.

Here is a video to get a better glimpse.

It crashes after that. You can see the blue loading symbol around the cursor
