Not able to get on the chain board.....can anyone help

Arcilite and I (acaddict) are trying to get in chain. We both have everything downloaded (we think). Dave Mustaine suggested we ask for help here. The correct address, name and checks are done on acstats. Any ideas????

What he needs to be more specific is Troubleshooting advice for ACStats. I helped him manually configure his ACStats for upload. (I basically typed in my upload URL and have him enter it in his client). He and Arcilite have entered the information correctly and are still not showing up on lastdynasty.net/stats . Is it possible that the only way you can configure ACStats for upload is with the automatic RegEdit? Any other ideas?

Try clicking the top link in my signature. That takes you to Panzer's post about loading ACStats. You (in theory) should be able to simply click on the chain reg file link and it will automatically install what you need.

FYI, you won't show up in the chain listing until after a manager physically adds you, even if you have correctly installed ACStats. Here's the way it works.

1) You install the ACStats and the chain reg file

2) Set a key vassal to one of your current vassals, it doesn't matter who (The database checks to see if a key vassal has been set. Your name won't show up until this is done; even a "fake" key vassal should work)

At this point, your part is done for a bit. You still won't be able to see yourself on the chain page listing until a manager manually adds you, but that will happen quickly after you have a key vassal set.

Try running the chain reg file again, log on and off a time or two, then post back here. Between all of us, we'll get it figured out.

Ok Oof you are correct, but, it's also true that As soon as you run acstats with our upload address, everyone, no matter whether they set a key vassal or not, shows up here:

http://lastdynasty.net/stats/

For these two gentlemen, that hasn't even happened yet. The chain list is the next step for them.

Ah, my bad.

So what the hell is keeping them from showing up on the acstats list if they have the address put in. Is there something else that that .reg file does that just typing in the URL doesn't do?
