Error connecting even though i changed IP

[Anastheowner 0]

i get an error connecting while the client is loading even though i changed the IP ,ect
some say its because of cache but i got the cache ( the one that came with the client/source ) and it is placed in correct location ,the only source/client that worked for me was trisidiax v3 but it was crap,i tried Biohazard 474 and i get error connecting to server even though i changed IP ( to localhost ) , and then i tried Project Decimal ( which i really really love and want to try and dont want to switch ) and same error,i tried another client/source and i still get this error i dont know what im doing wrong.....:mad::mad::mad:



if you want my teamviewer ill give you


BY the way does anybody know why client name in TrisidiaX source/client wont change,i edited,edited,and edited,but the only things that changed were background...and the IP ( i changed to localhost and it worked ) and the announcements in the chatbox....but it still says "Welcome to TrisidiaX" even though i edited it,and the client name on the top i changed it and its still the same,:|

Pretend you just turned on your computer and downloaded a source, what are all the steps you do to turn it on? List every little thing

the first steps are
1.change IP in client.java
2.check signlink and locate the cache ( ONLY THE CACHE THE COMES WITH THE SAME SOURCE AND CLIENT )
3.compile ( in source and in client )
i think thats it....sometimes ( depends on source/client ) i edit config,and gui
the rest sometimes i just change sprites or names n stuff

what do you do to run the server? are you running both the server and the client? Have you tried running with an IDE? Have you tried using localhost?

when i want to run the client/server or whatever i just run the server and client,both of them
I am using localhost,i have tried 127.0.0.0 and 127.0.0.1,im only using localhost because im looking for a good source that works so i can learn , and no,i do not know how to run it with an IDE.

try actually typing in "localhost" also running a server with an IDE isn't hard, i'd suggest eclipse but I know a lot of people around here don't like it, I only use it because it's all I know
