Actually, he's right. The script provided in the first post DOES contain that function twice! But it's not the cause of the problems. Ehh I've just decided not to use Broph, thanks for the hell all.

What?

Darn, did not work. Ohh well I am too lazy to keep trying, will have to do without it I guess. lol.

Everything.

Because I have no clue on how scripts work.

I see. I didn't know that. I thought it was game mode as it handles mode specific tasks like spawning. When Freeroam is run, broph spawns you at a little cabin somewhere, there is a selection of pre-spawned cars people can roam in.

I put anti alasing or whatever to the highest and then set my resolution to 1440x900 (which my screen is meant for) and now it's gone.

Aye, dosen't seem to affect anything tho, so no big deal.

I want the menu of the GUI, and the spawnpoint of the broph. If I can disable the chat in one, they can work with oneanother.

Ohh okay, gotta wait for my host to take the server offline. Since I have to go to the dentist now then the movies, I wont be able to until tomorrow. But I will send you a PM when it's done to let you know if it worked. And thanks a bunch

Yeah I noticed that going into "recently played", joining an "offline" server, then leaving it and refreshing the main list made them re-appear. Must have been a glitch, my bad about the MS I assumed incorrectly.

Hmm, it didn't work instantly. I will try a server restart. Here is what it looks like when I put in the code, just to double check it's correct.... cancelEvent()addEventHandler (onPlayerChat", root, broph_Chat )

kk done, gonna log on the server and see if it worked, if not I'll try a restart. But ty for the quick help

Don't see it there, I'll check the GUI file. Thanks for the quick response btw

I finally figured out that having the GUI and broph running at the same time was causing people's chat in console to show twice in a row. Is there anyway to disable that part in one of the scripts (that displays chat in console when entered)? Would really appreciate it! Here is the script, if someone could copy the part that controls chat in the console, paste it, and tell me what to change, or if I need to delete it.

I am pretty sure there is a master server.

Um.... yeah there is something called a master server. It grabs the info from all the other servers and displays them in the list for you. How do you think that information gets there bub? I am connected to the highest cable a residence can get and I have the modem running on a packet tracker (program that starts when my computer does, and instantly begins tracking how many packets pass through the modem). From looking at my logs, I have not had more then a 2 second gap in connection... which is so small no program would detect it (dis-connect). Master servers are what bring the list of normal servers up in the page, every single game with different servers runs on one. I am not trying to embarrass or say you don't know what your talking about, because I admit I might be mistaken. But I work as a GM for Sony Online Entertainment and I am pretty sure that any game running multiple servers, player run or game run, use a Master Server to bring the list together for the user.

My connection has been dropping all day in various servers including my own whereas running the internet itself... it's not the connection on my end. Anyone know what's going on?

Now I am having it again. *sigh*

I got the speedmeter and glue running. Then freeroam GUI.

Well in the scripting section I listed a problem with the broph script. These happen even with it off, but luckily they don't seem to mess with anything. Just wondering what they might mean

I find these in my server chat log, also see my post in the scripts area about the broph script problems. Here I will supply some script errors, anyone know what they mean? WARNING: fr_server.lua: Bad 'element' pointer @ 'destroyElement'(1) - Line: 416 ERROR: ...mods/deathmatch/resourcecache/freeroam/fr_server.lua:227: attempt to concatenate a boolean value ERROR: ...mods/deathmatch/resourcecache/freeroam/fr_server.lua:385: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value) Wondering how I can fix these.... thanks

I found a place to re-download them. Think I should give it a try?

These were added to my resources by the server provider. Below I will list the 4 files, there is a bug in one of them that causes chat go pop twice. When someone says something it is put in the console chat twice in a row. Once I turned it off, it stopped. (This happens for everyone on my server. If someone can suggest I change something in the script, or a place to download a new one. I like this script because it changes people's name colors, and provides a spawnpoint for freeroam that hosts a series of vehicles people can take. Thanks a bunch, this is my last issue with my server... once I fix it I can finally quit bothering with it. lol There are 4 files in the broph folder, the first named "broph.lua" root = getRootElement () players = getElementsByType ( "player" ) connected = 0 function resourceStart ( name ) if ( name == getThisResource() ) then local allMessages = getElementsByType ( "welcome" ) local randomMessage = randInt(1,#allMessages) local varMessageFind = allMessages[randomMessage] local varMessage = getElementData ( varMessageFind, "message" ) outputChatBox ( "" ..varMessage..
