Hi,
I am about to compile InstaReap for Linux. The problem is: The InstaReap.d3m has only 91 KB, but it must have 1,4 MB!!!
If someone wants to help me, contact me via ICQ or mail.

Thanks.

Uh... why \"must\" it have 1.4 MB? If it compiled and stuffed into a HOG at only 91 KB, then what's the problem?

Um... You know, the *.d3m is not a hog-file, it is a so-file. It was compiled, that mod, yes, but:
Error initializing game module!

A .d3m is a .hog file (with the .dll and string files, if I remember correctly).
If you think it's too small because it's missing something, go back and check to see what's in it!

Foil, I seem to vaguely remember that on Windows (and on Windows only!) you can rename a .dll to .d3m and put its resources in the main Descent3 directory. Other than that, the .d3m must be a HOG containing .dll's and .so's, and if the first method was even an option, I never used it in my D3 coding days.

I tried simply renaming my .dll as a .d3m... it didn't seem to work.
And I just remembered something:

When compiling a mod of the Anarchy code, mine compiled to around 90Kb, but I once compiled it in "debug", and it came out about 1.4Mb... could you be compiling it in "debug"?

Sorry, I forgot this forum...
I got it compiled now (with gcc-2.95) and I can join servers now. But if I shoot, nobody sees my shot and I can't kill someone.
The version of my InstaReap-sources were different from these on our servers. So I've started my own server and tried again - no succes!
Maybe you can explain why it doesn't work!

After looking through the code, I can't see any reason why this would be happening. Anything suspect has been commented out.
But this is the exact behavior that occurrs if client/server negotiation fails, either due to latency, packet loss, or custom negotiation. It doesn't look like there's any custom negotiation going on at the beginning, though I may be missing something. If you stay connected, do you get kicked automatically?

No, everything stays normally (No loss, no higher ping, no disconnects).
