Ok guys, our group of Outlaws players have been attempting to reach someone for help here at voobly since march as seen here http://www.voobly.com/forum/thread/262742, but seems interest was lost on the voobly side for fixing the issue which is the voobly client doesn't detect the Outlaws installation from GOG which is the only installation that works for newer versions of Windows, is there any possible way that Voobly can fix this issue, we would love to have a lobby to play in and if Voobly could fix this issue it'd be a huge help to our group. Thanks for any help in advance!

There is a big community, following, for Outlaws, we have a large group with 478 members. We have games daily, it's just a hassle with having to manually go in find IPs and forward ports and there are a lot who still have issues getting things working properly. A lobby system such as Voobly would help so many get to playing with us.

The reason no one from the community is here is because everyone has newer versions of Windows and the old CD game won't work so we have to use the GOG version which in turn is not detected by Voobly.

+chris@voobly, +kitt
I second Warrior - the very reason there is no community on Voobly is a function of the priority of this item. Everyone playing this game is using GOG version. We've had to go elsewhere.

How can we persuade you to move this up the dev list? I understand and appreciate you volunteering- but we have no other means than to kindly ask for your help to prioritize this. Maybe we could raise some funds? Let me know what would be helpful at this point to our cause and using Voobly as our platform.

Here are a few tidbits of helpful information (from a dev standpoint)
Here is the GOG version GUID (which is different from the CD version

GOG Version Reg Entries
AppExePath: C:\GOG Games\Outlaws\Launch Outlaws.lnk
ApplicationId: {650CEAF9-3BBC-49EA-8393-4AD6C7C1911A}

To this point, we were able to pass the Voobly check for the game by adding these registry entries for x86 and x64 respectively...
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DirectPlay\Applications\Outlaws]
"CommandLine"="/lobby"
"CurrentDirectory"="C:\\GOG Games\\Outlaws"
"File"="OLWIN.exe"
"Guid"="{014616a0-0e53-11d1-bb72-444553540000}"
"Path"="C:\\GOG Games\\Outlaws"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\DirectPlay\Applications\Outlaws]
"CommandLine"="/lobby"
"CurrentDirectory"="C:\\GOG Games\\Outlaws"
"File"="OLWIN.exe"
"Guid"="{014616a0-0e53-11d1-bb72-444553540000}"
"Path"="C:\\GOG Games\\Outlaws"

However, when you go to host a game- it crashes Voobly every time. Here is some data on that crash from eventvwr

Faulting application name: voobly.exe, version: 0.1.1.1262, time stamp: 0x59b02947
Faulting module name: QtGui4.dll, version: 4.5.2.0, time stamp: 0x5419bd4f
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x002ef240
Faulting process id: 0x10e0
Faulting application start time: 0x01d380b5334f6e7e
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Voobly\voobly.exe
Faulting module path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Voobly\QtGui4.dll
Report Id: 8424f2c9-eca8-11e7-b633-5cf370603f8a

The dev list. We are volunteers, no company or paid developers. Such things need time, especially if there is no existing community, as there might be things with higher priority, e. g. the new UP for AOC.
How can we help move this forward? Did you see my DM and post on this thread? Appreciate all you guys do.

Thank you +kitt.

Maybe a few members of our community could chip in to assist you with mod duties on this site as a means to compensate your team for their time? ...and to bump this fix towards the next iteration on the road-map? How else can we help you? We've been very patient (approaching 1 year now on the original request...)

Thx again- lmk, I can rally resources!

Yes we will help anyway that we possibly can, whatever we can do to get a fix so we can use Voobly as our go to lobby. We continue to add to our group day after day, and many of them who aren't able to play would if they had a lobby they could easily launch from. We look forward to your reply!
