Oh, i got it working now, it showed in update/add list, but it is still red when i am running subbill and subgame...thus i cant enter it...

By localhost, you mean just the word localhost or something else?

One other thing, when did DCME start using paint when editing tiles?

Firewall is letting it through, and here is sever.ini file: //You can delete anything with the // infront, they are their to help you get the basics...

Thanks Drake, that got it working For the record and future reference, the files i had were as follows: COMCT332.OCX, msinet.ocx, zlib.dll, COMDLG32.OCX, and the DCME application. For all the files, i had to right click, select Properties, and click Unblock, then Apply. I then right clicked the DCME app, went to compatability mode xp sp2, and Applied settings. It then worked Thanks again Drake, and Samapico, for your help. -General Lucas Shadow

I have everything for my zone ready but with one problem; it wont show in Add/Update zone list. I have the server.ini file edited with my unchanging ip address, so i dont know what the problem is. Any thoughts would be helpful. -General Lucas Shadow

Yes, i have that file, as well as all the other "Required Files" in the same folder as the DCME application. Is there an older version of DCME i could use without this problem?

Did you spell that file right (comctl32.ocx)? Otherwise, i cant find where to download it.

When i try and open DCME, it asks to install something and starts searching for a file named sku112.cab. When it cant find it, it says comct332.ocx can not be supported, and the program closes. I have a 64 bit Home Premium Vista laptop if that helps any. -General Lucas Shadow

Oh wait, i just fixed it... For those who have vista, highlight the DCME icon and right-click, select run as administater and tell it to allow the program to run, now its fixed

Im having the same problem, AND i have Vista....
