Reinstalling infistar without messing up your old filters

[Madmaori]

Is this possible or do i have to install infistar first from scratch again?....like is there a way to merge?...cause if i copy over all my filters again ill have to readd everything i need from scratch ya? ...

Look for programs such as Winmerge and the like to help make this easier.

This is how I do it:

 

First you’ll want to download winmerge or something like it

Backup all your current working filters

Example:

Old Battleye Filters: 143

Old Battleye Filters: 145

Extract all files from the original infiStar the old version and the latest version.

Browse to the older Battleye folder (from infistar) right click and select the winmerge option

You’ll be prompted to open the second folder – this should be the latest BE filters

Now the changes in lines will be highlighted in dark yellow and the difference (Change) will be in light yellow. Copy the light yellow to the correct lines in your active Bettleye filters.

 

If you find a better way let me know.

 

Mike.

Nice lowry thanx for the input, sadly the problem im having is trying to resinstall infistar after the latest patch. Even tried from scratch (Wipeing server) . What happens is when i copy the infistar filters over to the server then try to add what i need for statusbar etc the server won't let me in and just constantly errors out like so ....

They have their own forums so you need to go there

This is related to the Epoch mod, too.

 

I use Notepad++ and the compare plugin. It highlights the lines with differences so you know where to look for changes.

This is correct, however on I will apply on this thread for the last time PM if you want more help.

 

Start at a base install please, I've not seen is error before so I am thinking it may be something you have done incorrect. Make sure all versions are up to date

 

The error is more than likly coming from the script.txt filter and needs to be edited around rule 61.

 

In notepad ++ ctrl+F for find and look for drawIcon3D.

 

As a test comment this line out (for testing only). It should look something like: //7 drawIcon3D.....

 

Now if that error is gone you know you're on the right track.

 

You'll want to add the correct exception to you filter.

 

I'm up for doing a Team viewer session to help you out and I have a TS server, we can talk it over.

 

Your call but this is not the correct place to discuss this issue.

 

Thanks,

 

Mike.
