Unable to use Playercntl

Minerobba

Flserver crashes when trying to load Playercntl (3.0.0hook). In the FLServer Console things below will show.
E:\FL\Scratch\Source\Common\Archetype.cpp(60) : *** ERROR: ArchDB::Get(3156448074) failed

E:\FL\Scratch\Source\Common\CEqObj.cpp(295) : *** WARNING: Object(0xaaaec089) missing equipment archetype(BC23934A)
In Freelancer v1.1, these warning won’t come out unless FLhook is used. So I think if I can fix these problem, plugins can be loaded successfully.
In other words, what should I do if I want to use Playercntl on a v1.1 server?

Decrypt all ini files
Delete config and try again

It didn’t work, the warning is still exist.

Which mod?
I think archetype name somewhere is misspelled

EDIT:
Dig suprise_bw_fighter at the SHIPS\loadouts.ini

Should be:

[Loadout]
nickname = SECRET_bd_bw_fighter_ku03
archetype = bw_fighter
equip = fc_bd_gun01_mark02, HpWeapon01
equip = fc_bd_gun01_mark02, HpWeapon02
equip = fc_bd_turret01_mark01, HpTurret01

and

[Loadout]
nickname = SECRET_ou_bw_fighter_br04b
archetype = bw_fighter
equip = fc_ou_gun02_mark02, HpWeapon01
equip = fc_ou_gun02_mark02, HpWeapon02
equip = fc_ou_turret01_mark01, HpTurret01
cargo = commodity_cardamine, 20

But better just to compare with clean vanilla install

Jesus, no warning anymore, how did you manage to find out where the misspell actually is?
But Playercntl still can’t be used. It will show something like

ERROR

header [zone] value size missing parameter 1(or 2)

Confirm

in vanilla Freelancer.

? Offline

header [zone] value size missing parameter 1(or 2)

Decrypt inis.
Use attached zip and unpack it into Freelancer folder
Then run extract.ini
It’s Adoxa’s tini - works faster than light

CRCTool or whatis can decode known hashes:

C:\contrib\games\Freelancer>whatis 0xaaaec089
2863579273      suprise_bw_fighter

header [zone] value size missing parameter 1(or 2)

This type of warning only shows up in binary ini files, replace with text and they’re ignored. Vanilla’s full of bugs, that’s why things like JFLP exist.

Thanks! It worked!
