Poseidon closes by itself

#1 Post by proxyphobia »

As the Subject indicated. Need help for Poseidon :
Hello everyone just wanna ask if somebody already encountered a problem like this? Where in when i open start-poseidon.exe Nothing happens.
Everything is black and it will just closes by itself. I read the manual. It should indicated 'Poseidon initialized'. So i believe mine is not working at all.

Things I tried so far:
1. Updated Openkore (Latest version through SVN) ~still no luck
2. Remove old and Reinstall a new copy (Latest version) ~still no luck
3. Run it as administrator ~still no luck
4. Included on exception list (Anti-virus) ~still no luck

I do have dual OS, I tried it on both Operating System which is (Windows XP, Windows 7)

Thank you in Advance~

Well, all I can say is about my experience with it on bRO's server.

It doesn't work on Windows 7, because Gameguard will close RO's client. (It works on Windows XP and Windows 8 though)

You should try to run src/Poseidon/poseidon.pl (using ActivePerl or Strawberry Perl) from the prompt command, so the window won't instantly close, giving you time to read any error messages.

* Most likely it is something related to WSTools.dll (I had this problem when I used to bot with Poseidon). Well, in my case it showed me that it couldn't find the dll anywhere, so I pasted it on src/Poseidon folder and it worked out just fine. But we can only be sure if you can actually read the error message :)


btw, currently Poseidon isn't working on bRO's server. I'm pretty sure bRO's the only official server that uses that piece of crap called GameGuard nowadays.
I'm watching my TV or is it watching me?
