so during mwc, i had myth up and running perfectly with no problems. When i tried to switch over to marius, but it would stick on playmyth. So i redled the patch and marius worked fine. However, all of my games are red. I have 1.6 etc etc, tried to clean reinstall myth, deleted prefs, all that jazz, but the games are still red.
When i redl the patch, it allows me to "run myth 2" and the games are fine, but when i restart the program, all the games return to red.
any suggestions?
thanks

Posts the contents of myth_log.txt from a session where you saw all games red.

i dont know how to find my myth_log txts. sorry, I checked in my M2 folder but it doesn't seem to have one.
This is really wierd because I installed myth2 on my desktop and it works fine (plus there is a myth_log on it) and I can join games but I can't with my laptop.

Your "myth_log" is the "myth_log.txt". The difference is that your computer has extensions hidden so files like "MythII.exe" show up as "MythII". Extensions tell us what type of file it is. TXT files are just text files you can open in any word editor like NotePad.
Look inside your plugins folder and look for "Patch MariusNet" and any file with PMI in the beginning or even PlayMyth. Make sure you only have the Patch MariusNet and delete the PMI or PlayMyth files from your plugins folder. Then your games will stop being red. If they are still red open your myth_log and copy/paste what it has in here.
