Connection Problems

I've just installed GuarDDog v 4.4, and am really pleased with it so far!

On startup i can update my passport along with the userrole correctly and quickly. However, when i try and join my room, i simply get:

*%#G_................ not found (Lookup time: 0.172 seconds)

When i try to connect using the mIRC options menu, i just get:

*/connect: not connected to server (line 1711, guard.aliases.mrc)

Incidently i also had connection problems when i used Hybrid, which is why i switched to this one. I hope the problem can be resolved

Thanks in advance, i'd really appreciate some help!

Did you use the command /msn %#G_grouproomnamehere ? Vincula uses /msn instead of /connect.

don't bother with the connect option in mIRC for starters.

Secondly, make sure someone other than the passport your bot is going to be using is in the room. This way it will not have a problem joining the room. That is why it cannot find the room, because noone is in the room.

Thankyou very much!!

Although this is unrelated, i have another little problem! My ExtremE Dialog causes the programme to crash whenever i attempt to access it. The small 'Loading..' window jams when it's nearly finished, and then i get not responding.

Sorry to be a nuisance, tho i'm loving the programme. =)

hmm, getting near the end means that it would most likely crash on trivia. You could try a new download, meaning download a new one from Techgear, and then try that, and see if it works.

Done that:

It worked for the first time and then started crashing again. But i made everything how i want in that first try, so it shouldn't be a problem for a while yet!

Thanks for your help again

Hey I got a Q about Guard Dog. I have most of the settings off thinking that might be the prob. But it still floods out on me even though I ticked on the flood settings in IRC. What #'s shoudl I put in those boxes? should I tick the que or any other boxes? I toyed with the flood settings and on the rare event it does not go flying out, it lags to all hell displaying the flood que. I use GD which has very lil coding added to it, cause its already loaded. I added the whisper kicker to remotes. Thats it. But the spec kicker and the script kicker is slow. Any ideas that might kill these probs?

hmm, seems really strange that would happen. When does it disconnect? Also, the script kicker wouldn't be to good if all the features are on, just turn a few on, the emoticon theme can also lag your computer as well as some computers can't handle constant reloadings of pages of html.

Most of the options are off. When one of my rooms is dead I do test floods to all hell on the scripts. I see flood check and like 97 messages in flood que, the room locks down then GD goes flying. The only thing I added to GD is a check my time kicker, and a whisper me kicker. The cons are set to non-emoticon msn theme.

I have no trivia with GD or facts. My bot talker isnt on. I am running winxp pro with 512mb ram, 80 gig HD (no where near full), 128mb video 2.4ghz pro. With DSL. Dont know if that helps any. I love to chat through GD but when the flood que fills up my outgoing txt is lagged to all hell. By the time it gets out i look like an idiot for commenting about something 5 mins earlier. lol

hmm, i'll see what i can do.

Thanx boss. Hey umm in the mean time what should I enter and tick on in the IRC flood settings?

the default settings are 350 300 300 0

I used GuarDDog Updater to hopefully solve your issue, please update and test again.
