Post subject:  Ok. haven't played in while, but.....
Wondering why this happens when I try to run the World Trade script... I'm running the final version of TWX and trying to use the World Trade script by the way, just so there is no confusion. As soon as I hit the key to run the script this is what I see:
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This script must be run from the command menu

Sector 5261 ==> 0 Warps : 4 NavHaz : 0% Anom : No
Script terminated: C:\TWXProxy204\scripts\2_WorldTrade.ts
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________


and just as a side note, I wasn't in sector "5261" when I tried this, I can be anywhere and this is what pops up.... and I "AM" at the command prompt.


Any help from anyone will appreciated fully, I'm having to use the Swath World Trade, which is not bad, but somehow I remember the TWX script being WAAAAYYYY faster< and I could use the speed in the game I'm in, lol, Loki is NO JOKE.

Ok nevermind guys, I figured it out, it was because I had to get "Validated", had to make some changes with my >firewall<, but I got it, and it IS faster than the original Swath World Trade, but I wouldnt trade Swath for the TW Universe, lol.

Nice job getting it figured out. You might post any other symptoms you experienced and the exact fix, for posterity.

Ok EP, lol. What happened was... I was using TWX Proxy v 2.02, and I was using that one because thats the one I regged (back in the day, when you could actually REACH Xide and Cherokee, lol) and I had my Firewall blocking anything going in or out of my rig. I took the firewall down, and then went to the "Auth Proxy" tab in TWX, and "unclicked" that box that says "Authorize when connection is made" or somthing along those lines, and it said something about trying to connect to server, cant remember the exact wording that was used, but then after that, I could use the "Pack 2" scripts so that was good. But I switched to the "Final" version now and all is good because I can also use my CK combat pack< which i also "regged" back in the day when you had to reg it to use it, and get the "includes" that had some 1KB files called "_CK File" that verified the name you were using. Had those stashed away on an old CD,(hardly use "CD's" anymore, USB flash drives are my new BEST FRIEND, lol), but so far everything works fine, and I'm thinking about trying my hand at some minor (and I do mean very MINOR) scripting. So, that was it in a pretty condensed version, hope you could follow along, because after reading this, I barely could, and "I" did it, lol.

Yea, got that one now, and am getting back into the game, slowly but surely. Its funny how the progression went... back in the early 90's, I absolutely LOVED the UnLiMiTeD Games, because back then you didn't have all the godforsaken ship edits... you had a GOB of turns but regular planets edits and regular "old school" ship edits, and believe it or not, an Unlimited turn game was HARD TO FIND, lol. Now, its the other way around, you can't hardly find a game with low turns, (1000 to 3000, and on that I'm being VERY generous, because we used to have like 400 to 700 turn games, lol) I found a pretty cool game at Ultimate though (regular ship edits, but the planets get Cits in half the regular time) I can live with that. These games are great for the ability it gives you to have a "real life" AND play Tradewars :lol:
