Hello all, Some answers for bop it questions and complaints: Quote hi all, what is the server i connect too to play one on one? I'd like to beat rob joy in bopet. End quote You need to know the person's ip address, or if he/she has a dns host it's address. While that person stands on one on one, you have to enter the ip or host address. To do that, bop it on the one on one theme, enter the address and press enter. The game will connect to him/her, and if he/she accepts your request, the game will begin. Quote the twest it key is too far away and would like to see it moved up a bit. End quote The layout of the action keys are layed out in a position which is quite challenging, but once you get used to it it'll be logical. Quote can't even get the game to start, otherwise I would. End quote Mike, could you explain why can't you start it please? Quote I actually like how the keys are configured, it feels a bit like the original bop it. my only complaint is that f5 for push it is extremely annoying. I have to swing my hand all the way up there each time. arg. wouldn't the insert key on the numpad be a better option? I'm also wondering if anyone got the one on one option to work? my game crashes each time I try. End quote Push it is indeed anoying, but it's there to pull you out from the mode when you put your hands on the lower keys, grin. It's part of the challenge. I might have a theory why your game crashes on one on one, and if it becomes true, it'll be fixed in the next release. Try checking your firewall or router if it blocks the required port (2300). If it does, the game might won't notice it, and it'll try starting the server (without any response). Quote easy difficulty? thought there were no difficulty levels in bop it ultimate? End quote Indeed, however trickbop is harder than bop or one on one. Quote Has anyone managed to connect to another person successfully in this game? If so, how do you do it, and how to you host a game... End quote See the first quote. Quote I only have one complaint about this game: the twist it sounds and spin it sounds should be reversed so that the twist it sounds in this game are the twist it sounds in the real bop it game--that keeps throwing me off. I'd also like to see configurable keys--using the number pad keys makes more sense to me than flinging my hands all across the keyboard. End quote We tried to not follow the original bop it sounds scheme, so we made new sounds which are similar, but not exactly the same, thus, adding our own touches. I'm sorry, but i don't think so we will reverse the two sounds. Quote One more comment about Bop it: you might consider a shared directory for all your programs so that once you've configured it for one, you don't have to run it for each additional program--a shared directory plus optional individual directories if people do want different configs for each program. Question: when I play this game, and run other software as well, I keep getting the windows installer trying to install a program I don't even use or have any more. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling msiexe a few times, and it seems to work until I restart the computer, but it's not permanent. It's getting really annoying really fast. Any ideas? I keep escaping out of this game trying to bypass the prompts. Oh yes, an are you sure message before quitting would be handy. End quote To make a shared directory, you can install the games you want in the same folder specifying the same path when installing, and leaving or specifying another path for the other games. It seems something calls the windows installer and tries to configure something. I am not sure if it is bop it specific. There is only one disadvantage of adding a prompt when you'd like to quit from the game. It'd pause the game, and it means some rest for the lazy ones, smiles.
