New installer for OB3D

This message was edited 1 time. Last update was at 05/03/2008 19:28:20

To those who couldn't get ob3d to work, there's a new installer that includes physx and all you need.

This should make it much easier to play the game for new players.

You don't need to install this If you already have OB3D working.

Here's the link:

Ps anyone would help me test the installer ?

Just uninstall PhysX and OB, then try to reinstall using this.

Thanks Mikkel I'll try it later maybe tomorrow. If that doesnt work, than I dont know what to do lol.

(On my rubbish PC). When i installed it it froze twice when downloading the updates. I cancelled and it started again from where it left off once i had re-run it. Btw, does it do anything with Java?

EDIT:
Ok, i uninstalled it and tried it again and it worked 100%. It didn't freeze or anything, nice.

EDIT(2):
I uninstalled it again and saw that there were still some files remaining:
onlineboxing\native\libs_web_nativelibs.jar_webapp_version_1204761180000.jar
onlineboxing\lib\(all files under lib)
onlineboxing\DIFxAPI.dll
onlineboxing\glut32.dll
onlineboxing\jinput-dx8.dll
onlineboxing\jinput-raw.dll
onlineboxing\lwjgl.dll
onlineboxing\OpenAL32.dll
onlineboxing\physx4j.dll
onlineboxing\PhysXLoader.dll

In total, that's 27.5MB. I don't think someone who wants to actually wants to uninstall OB3D would be too pleased

It didn't freeze this time either, so it was probably something stupid with my computer.

But... that's just uninstalling. Installing works perfectly.

Great ! thanks Ray

After all these Months...FINALLY!

Thx Mikkel

Pretty nice.

Now if only it would not require one to have admin rights...

Guys you need to install this one. Also make sure the file path is not program/files it needs to be C:/games thats a example

and you shouldnt have to change that the installer should have that as default location.

also you cant install it into program files.

I installed it into program files and it worked for me.. but if it doesn't for other people, then why not? (just curious)

If you're on vista onlineboxing is not allowed to download updates unless you specifically run it as admin. It will run the update, it will appear as the files are being downloaded but ob don't have write access in the c:\program files folder. So after you download 30 mb program won't start anyway. Pretty strange that a program is not allowed to write in it's own folder but that's just Windows.

I run the updates and everything gets downloaded and yet the screen still disappears after I leave config screen.

Did you try with different settings ? like fullscreen/non fullscreen, different screen resolution etc ?

It also might be that u need opengl drivers for ur graphics card. If u can't even get a window, try update your drivers.

Well the resolution is at the lowest because thats what I need. But how do you update graphics cards?

How do u know "what u need" if it doesnt work ? did u try different resolutions ? and goto your graphic cards vendors website and download/install new drivers. I dont know where that is, you have to know what card you have then google the information.
