Ok as many of you will be aware, you have been unable to server duel since Friday due to server being down. Due to this we have came up with a new server and here is how you fix your YVD:

1. Locate your YVD Installation Directory.

2. Find the file "settings.ini":

3. Open it with Notepad.

4. Find the JABBER line and edit it to match:

The IP for you to copy/paste: 208.117.34.244



Remember run YVD as admin and this will work. Enjoy your server dueling again.

To those of you in XCC: Round 1 deadline is wednesday. Round 2 will start thursday.

Thanks for the fix guys!

Might I suggest creating a new YVD installer, so people who are just downloading it can have the "fixed" version?

[DarkBlaze557]

Easier said than done, Sho.

We'll have that done eventually, though. This is a more immediate fix.

[Rayth Mistwalker]

I'm sure I can prob work out a single program you run from the YVD directory and it could just update the settings.ini file.. *goes to look into it*

[GothicKratos]

Why not just upload a fixed *.INI file?

[Rayth Mistwalker]

Because said ini file stores user info as well. It would essentially reset the program to factory settings.

It stores all of....five settings? Playmat location, deck folder location, log folder information, yvd display name, and server duel nick/pass. All of the above are pretty easy to redo...anywho...

Fix is a fix, good work guys.

[Harpuia]

Very nice.  I think a factory reset .ini available for download wouldn't be a bad idea for anyone who messes up their YVD in general though.

hey guys I tried the above solution but I don't know what to do after I edit the JABBER= line, I try saving the new settings and when it ask if I want to replace the existing settings it keep saying access denied. can you please help me there.

[DarkBlaze557]

When  you go to edit the file, right-click it and select "Open as Administrator" or "Run as Administrator."

[onionvalhalla]

for some reason i'm not finding settings i download back a new YVD and install it but i'm not finding settings thanks blaze

[Rayth Mistwalker]

it should be in the directory where you installed/extracted YVD

[DarkBlaze557]

onionvalhalla: If you continue to have issues, please open a topic in the YVD Helpdesk forum, located here:

This way, we can spend more time helping you individually.

How do I locate my YVD installation directory?

[Rayth Mistwalker]

It's where YVD is installed to. If you have a shortcut on your desktop, right click it, and open location (or similar)

i did everything it says right here and I can not still play, it says verification error, please someone tell me what to do thankyou

[GothicKratos]

As Darkblaze mentioned above, please create a thread in the YVD Helpdesk section for individual support. (:

[Super Android 17]

i need a settings.ini cause i had to reinstal YVD and i can't find mines =/

[Rayth Mistwalker]

Where did you install YVD to? If it's in program files, reinstall to desktop or somethin. Make sure all hidden files and folders are being shown (again this fails if its in program files)
