[FIXES] - For those with issues

[peperonikiller]

FIRST TRY THIS:
It seems installing this pre-requisites inside the
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\orion dino beatdown\Binaries\Redist
and
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\orion dino beatdown\Binaries\InstallData\dotNetFx40_Full_setu p.exe
will fix some issues.

For some reason Steam does not install that upon first launch.

Currently the two largest bugs we are having are related to the Player Count error on Find Servers and a crash bug only a minority of you are experiencing.

If you're experiencing a crash after loading please post your PC Specs, OS and all that jazz here: http://spiralforums.com/viewtopic.php?f=80&t=2300

If we can iron out these everything will be golden by Monday.


While this may not nail down some issues, this will solve some:

[QUICK HOTFIX TEST] We may have ironed out an issue that is possibly plaguing a large majority of you.

Anyone that is experiencing game crashes or issues joining servers can you please do the following and reply:

Step 01 - Shut down Steam.

Step 02 - Open your 'Steam/SteamApps/common' folder.

Step 03 - Check if you have two ORION folders. 'orion prelude' and 'orion dino beatdown'.

Step 04 - Delete the 'orion prelude' and 'orion dinobeatdon' folder IF you have both.

Step 05 - Open Steam again and go to your games Library.

Step 06 - Right-click on 'ORION: Dino Beatdown' and do 'Delete Local Content'.

Step 07 - Re-download the game and verify there is only one folder in your 'Steam/SteamApps/common' folder.

Post here if you can join a bit smoother.

Details coming soon once we figure out a few more areas.

UDK has stopped responding error:
Try going to
\steam\steamapps\common\orion dino beatdown\Binaries\InstallData
running dotNetFx40_Full_setup.exe from and chosing repairing .net 4.0

steam\steamapps\common\orion dino beatdown\Binaries\Redist
and running UE3Redist.exe


Can't join a server:
Currently you can only join servers with the SGSDS prefix.

----------------
For those that are having problems with key bindings you'll have to modify the DefaultInput.ini file for now, which is in the "steamapps/common/Orion DB/UDKGame/Config" directory i believe.

I'll try to put out a program tonight to help with some of the issues.

Video Memory Error

Nice to see the community manager here, top marks for you

I'm going to be compiling a list on my first post of all the bugs reported and if there are any fixes for them yet or not. Hopefully that will help direct some people. Otherwise we'll be waiting for the patches.

[allenasfd]

Same here, and I can't play in multiplayer games.
The client crashes or either goes back to the main menu.

Will this be fixed soon? Someone knows what it going on?

Eh, I think there are bigger concerns... I think some people have the alpha version. I think i'm one of those. If I press F4 or F5 the textures change(F4 = Grey scale textures, F5 = Red scale textures), this is not something I should be able to do in the finished game without some tweek of some sort. Also, F1 = Third person(But I want that).

Also, folder shows as 1.4Gb, STEAM shows as downloading 1.4Gb but STEAM reports the game as 762Mb in size when I go to properties through STEAM.

WTF?

That is the correct size yes, if anyone has an install folder size of only 700mb then they need to do the fix mentioned above.

Please bear with me as I build the bug list on my main post. Sorry about all the issues guys. David should have his account authenticated soon and he'll be able to support you better then I can :P

The game running two separate UDK.exe's seems to be causing the inability to create or join games. I've manually forced close one of the processes and now I can get into games which I couldn't before. Seems to work every time.

Need to exit out of the game, open task manager and close the process and then restart and it works.

My install is always 700mb. I followed the instructions (although i only had 1 Orion folder) and when i reinstall it only does 700mb. What do i do?

Don't trust the size that Steam tells you, when you go to your steam directory you want to right click on the orion folder and it should say 1.44Gb

This solved the key binding issue for me but as soon you restart the game it resets everything, I'll try making the file read only tomorrow once I've altered it and see if that fixes the reset.
