Finally a fix for the login (and possibly other) problems?

[thebiomage]

I've been able to get through the login problem instantly now with a simple text file edit. Here's what I did:

Go to Evolve local files (you can right-click on Evolve -> Properties -> Local files -> Browse local files). Edit the client.m2k file (notepad is enough for this). You'll see lines like:

"DoormanClient":{
"doormanConnectTimeout":10,
"doormanOperationTimeout":60,
"doormanRequestTimeout":15,
"doormanSleepDuration":1
}

Change them to the following:

"DoormanClient":{
"doormanConnectTimeout":1,
"doormanOperationTimeout":2,
"doormanRequestTimeout":1,
"doormanSleepDuration":1
}

Save the file, and make sure it stays as a M2K file and notepad doesn't change it to a .txt file. Then right click on the file (client.m2k) -> Properties -> enable the "Read-only" attribute (the game will otherwise try to change the values back to default at launch).


I'd be interested to know if this works for other people, and if it helps with the booting out of matches problem and rejoining matches problem (don't have enough people around to test these right now).

EDIT: I still recommend not skipping the intro stuff after launching the game, but once the main menu opens you should be able to click on Play immediately. If it throws the Profile error, click try again.

Did you try clicking Play a couple of times and retry? The difference now is that it actually tries to reconnect when you click retry, not just immediately dump you back to the menu (at least for me). It also sometimes throws the my2k error for me now (which it has never done before), but that goes away by simply visiting a solo lobby and clicking on challenges there.

Anyway editing this file has clearly affected the server behavior in some way. I'm not sure if these values are optimal in any way, I just lowered them to minimum since a lot of these problems seem to be fixed by just waiting around (and that might be related to the timeout values in the file).

Yet another guide fails. There is no foolproof solution to this since the development has stopped. Switch back to Legacy or Uninstall, real solution.

This hasn't fixed my situation. Considering I don't have a problem claiming my rewards or seeing my challenges. I just have a problem actually getting onto the multiplayer menu.

Yours sounds like a different problem than what I've had. I've never failed on getting through to the multiplayer lobby after seeing challenges pop up. After I did the changes in this topic I got the My2k profile error 2-3 times (never happend to me before), and when I got that error the Play option in the main menu was disabled (game forced into singleplayer mode).

If I had to go out of my way to guess, I'd say your problem might be connected to My2k profile rather than Evolve profile service. I got rid of the Play button being disabled by visiting a solo lobby and clicking challenges, then backing down to main menu.

I changed the values to

"DoormanClient":{
"doormanConnectTimeout":2,
"doormanOperationTimeout":3,
"doormanRequestTimeout":2,
"doormanSleepDuration":1
},

for now and have been able to get through login on first attempt on every try. Also I haven't been booted out of a single round yet (typically does it 80% of the time for me). It seems like the game has ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ itself for the time being for me.

Very interesting find as usual !
As a plus i would suggest deleting the cache.m2k and precache files just after editing the client file, before launching the game.
Who knows, maybe the old data written in them could interfere with the new settings in some way.
The game will create new ones anyway.
Can't wait to see if it will make a difference, but seems definitely worth a try.

So is this actually working or?

[Th1rt3en ︻芫 ↼]

Thanks, another guy here said it was a failed attempt, but it actually worked for me, it logs in at the first try.
Thanks again.

[Uncle Brad = Bad]

I tried it i have to say though the log in attempts work much better now, but it doesn't change the kicking issues.
I also notice that now I get tons of rooms in which the countdown timer restart, I didn't have this before. could be something else but it seems to be related to this form of fixing it.
Still, impossible to find matches but atleast i can get my daily log-ins and buy skins for legacy

The contract ended. The devs can't fix anything. Don't blame TRS. The game worked well before.

[rootK1VS]

[Th1rt3en ︻芫 ↼]

Thx! Deleting the cache files (cache.m2k, precache.m2k) solved my login issue. Collecting the daily reward didn't worked for me today, but I'm able to login again...
