Hi Here is a dso cleaner:
[code]// #autoload
// #name = cleanDSO
// #version = 1.0
// #date = December 21, 2001
// #author = Paul Tousignant
// #warrior = UberGuy (FT)
// #email = uberguy@skyreach.cas.nwu.edu
// #web = http://scripts.tribalwar.com/uberguy
// #description = Remove all your *.dso files every time you exit T2.
// #status = beta

package noDso {

function quit() {

%cnt = 0;
%tmpObj = new ScriptObject() {};
for(%file = findFirstFile("*.dso"); %file !$= ""; %file = findNextFile("*.dso")) {
%tmpObj.file[%cnt++] = %file;
}
for (%i=0; %i

you may have to open each gamdata/base folder and manualy delete all dso files found first

Finding a dso-cleaner seems a pretty frequent request. I someone willing to put a list of all known ones in the FAQ if I collect them from all the forum and all links and pm them?

Unhandled Execptions (also known as UEs) are an unfortunate reality of T2 and have plagued players since it first hit the shelves. Everyone has UEs; no one can stop them. Multiple (but failed) attempts to solve the problem were undertaken by both Sierra and coder demi-gods: we just all have to live with them.

However, you *can* cut down on UEs by:

-Tweaking your video settings and making sure that your drivers are up-to-date.

-If you have a high packet loss and/or slow connection, you will have more UEs; either find a better connex and/or stop your torrents/auto-updaters. Some firewalls + settings add to the problem too.

-Shut down as many background programs that run in the background of T2; sometimes they interfere with T2 functions (i.e, sound, video, network bandwidth).

-Don't overload on scripts: some are helpful, some not. But remember that most are written by amateur (unpaid) scripters who do so as a hobby only: there are lots of poorly-written codes out there, so its important to remember that when downloading large, junk scripts. Stick with the more well-used scripts rather than the obscure ones. Caveat Emptor.

-Failing that, you will need to do what we've all had to do: uninstall T2 and do a clean reinstall. Replace your scripts slowly and singly so that you can find out which one(s) are adding to the instability of T2 and causing your UEs.

Hope that helps.

also, dont look at tanks

if you see a tank, go to a part of the map that doesnt have tanks!

lol this sounds funny because it is, but its also true

Actually, I found that to be true too. Whenever I'm in or near a tank, there's an increased chance of UEs. They may also be associated with mortars or "splash" damage, as I've gotten plenty of UEs from mortar explosions and the shock-cannon in Renegades mod.

Also, certain maps tend to give more UEs than others, such as Damnation (among many others).

To bad we can't (or should I say we don't have the accessibility to) fix all the UEs. We can only hope someone makes an open-source clone of T2 some day. There's plenty of game engines out there like that, just few are willing to undertake such a difficult feat. Hope and wait, or learn to program really well... that's all we can do.

yep

whats worst is when multiple idiots are running around in tanks and you see them all at the same time

your chances for a ue are very good at that point

Go here: http://www.tribaloutpost.com/tribes2/scripts/category/utilities/page:2 and scroll to the bottom of the page and try downloading and running the "Clean DSO" and "DSO Killer". Also, you may want to try setting your taskbar to autohide. I know it sounds goofy but I had to do this to get T2 to work correctly in Vista.
