Zandronum 3.1 error
Hello, I come to ask for help with an error that I have in my zandronum, when I try to enter any server it tells me that my version is out of date and that I have 3.0 when the necessary one is 3.1 but I installed several times and in different ways version 3.1 and there is no way to fix it, any help?

Re: Zandronum 3.1 error
It sounds like Doomseeker (or whatever server browser you use) is still configured to load your old Zandronum 3.0 executable when you try connecting to servers instead of 3.1. FYI, the default installation locations are different between 3.0 and 3.1, so you probably have both versions installed on your computer right now. You need to reconfigure your server browser to find your 3.1 executable, wherever you installed it (by default, it's installed in your AppData folder).JoseJuega750 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 19, 2022 5:59 amHello, I come to ask for help with an error that I have in my zandronum, when I try to enter any server it tells me that my version is out of date and that I have 3.0 when the necessary one is 3.1 but I installed several times and in different ways version 3.1 and there is no way to fix it, any help?
Are you having the exact same issue as JoseJuega750? It would help if you could elaborate what is your issue.
Re: Zandronum 3.1 error
Hello! And thanks for quick reply!) Yes i have same issue for connecting.
May be i am wrong. But its opposite. Through Linux install we have 3.1 ver of zandronum but servers is on 3.0 version may be that cause connection issue?Kaminsky wrote: ↑Thu Mar 24, 2022 2:46 amIt sounds like Doomseeker (or whatever server browser you use) is still configured to load your old Zandronum 3.0 executable when you try connecting to servers instead of 3.1.

Re: Zandronum 3.1 error
The client and server have to be using the same version of Zandronum, so you will not be able to connect to a 3.0 server with a 3.1 client.

Re: Zandronum 3.1 error
If the server is stuck on 3.0, then it should be updated to 3.1 too. For other servers that might still be running on 3.0, there's nothing that we can do about that. If you're also using 3.0 on Windows 7 then I suggest updating it to 3.1 so that you're up to date on everything.
After looking at the screenshots that you posted, I noticed that you're loading FreeDoom as the IWAD. Most servers load DOOM.wad or DOOM2.wad, and there will be authentication issues if you're using the wrong IWAD. Make sure that Doomseeker can find your commercial IWADs if you have them installed. Also, it's no longer necessary to load NewTextColours_260.pk3 because the extra colour codes have officially been added to Zandronum since 3.1.

Did you install Zandronum properly? You can do either of the following:
1. Place one or more of these wads in ~/.config/zandronum/.
2. Edit your ~/.config/zandronum/zandronum.ini and add the directories of your
iwads to the list beneath [IWADSearch.Directories]
