XP "Secrets" ? ... meh.

Did you make sure you have proper configuration of merv? I, personally, never had issues w/ Merv and XP.

Ok, first off, to take a screenshot hold Ctrl and hit Print Scrn. Then open up Paint and hit Ctrl + V. Then save the file as a PNG and post it here as your screenshot.

As for the MERV problem this should be the proper configuration of it, but the IP:port is the one that really matters.

MERVbot.ini:

Code: Show/Hide

[Login]
Zone=Set to zone IP:port

RecordLogins=0
ResX=1280
ResY=1024

[Database]
Spawns=Spawns.txt
Commands=Commands.txt
Operators=Operators.txt
SaveInterval=300

[Misc]
WindowCaption=Assassin MERV
MaxSpawns=3
MaskBan=0
PlayerVoices=0
NoTerminal=0
DisablePubCommands=1
NoisySpectator=0
MaxConnectionTries=3
InitialChatChannels=

[Security]
ChatterLog=0
RemoteInterpreter=1
RemoteOperator=1
EncryptMode=1

Spawns.txt

Code: Show/Hide

Bot name : password : arena : plugins : staff pw

As for the "arena" in the Spawns.txt, set it to 0 for Public 0.

Well Nick, pretty hard to find the problem with this screenshot, did the bot's console output anything?
