| How neat.
I re-downloaded Luminary again to play with my girlfriend, and ran into the same problem. Had completely forgotten I had found a fix until I searched for server.dat
As for the installing the ndoors client, you don't really need to.
If anyone wants an explanation of the problem, this is my understanding of it (May be wrong, it's just my guess):
The server.dat file should point to the patching servers for luminary. Unfortunately, what seems to happen is that when you launch it through ijji reactor, for one reason or another, it overwrites the server.dat file with text of an HTML error (it looks at luminary.cdnetworks.net%2Fndoorsluminary%2FPatch%2Fserverip.dat for the serverip,dat file which contains the patch server addresses. When it downloads it, it fails, and you end up with the source of the failed page.)
The only thing that is really needed from the Ndoors installation as far as I know (I had it before to help me troubleshoot ijji client) is the correct server.dat file.
West, I appreciate the credit, was strange to see my name pop up when I went searching for a solution.
Also, would be nice to have a working server.dat file hosted on a third party site such as rapidshare/megaupload/hotfile or something. Download here was unavailable for me.
**EDIT**
I decided to take a final look at this and discovered the source of the problem.
Decrypted, the serverip.dat from the NDOORS installation was: gzauth.ndoorsgames.com
However, the ijji server seems to be pointing to luminary.cdnetworks.net
I decided to test it, and redirected luminary.cdnetworks.net to the gzauth in my hosts, and this caused Ijji reactor to throw a fit and crash on load.
It probably could be made to work, but there's no real reason as copying over the serverip.dat file fixes it.
Serverip.dat
Couldn't find one anywhere else so uploaded it.
Enjoy.
(Oh, and I suppose you MIGHT get it to work without serverip.dat if you stick
67.215.65.132 luminary.cdnetworks.net
into your hosts file in system32/drivers/etc
It might also just make your reactor crash until you remove that line. If someone would like to test, go for it.)

Location: Minnesota | What you said is exactly correct it's up to their lazy devs to fix it which probably won't happen and I don't see why this doesn't plague all ijji users but only certain ones it's kinda odd, and also I'm going to use your hotfile link for the serverip.dat file because I forgot that not everyone can download attachments off the forums some can some can't another odd thing(you can also try right clicking on the attachment and save file as(also save traget as) would probably work but you also must be logged in to download attachments)

| Hey West, i have a new problem lol. Theres like this goonzu patch i think and when i open luminary, a pop up says "Version Error, your game version does not match the server version. Game 611, Server 612." There is only an OK button and when i press that it closes the game everytime. Ive tried it many times already and the same thing happens over and over. please help, thank you |

Location: Minnesota | yeah because your missing files you have to update only the ndoors client and copy them over to the ijji like it says in the steps you have to do that after every patch. (try launching just the ndoors version and see if that's fine if it's not then reinstall it and reupdate it and then copy the files over to the ijji client again) |

Location: Minnesota | uh you select them and drag them over to the ijji and a pop up will come up asking to replace you press yes or select them and then right click and press copy then go to ijji folder and right click and press paste and a pop up will come up asking to replace and you press yes.
(and btw I read your other post do you get a pop up saying to many patches to download go to site for manual patches? or something along those lines well if that's the case just press no and it will dl, or are you having the error where you start the game up get to server select and then it says client doesn't match server patch?(this will also happen if you launch the game for the first time) well then you either need to a) reinstall and try patching again or b) if you have both clients you need to update only the ndoors client and then copy all the files over to the ijji one lol anyways hope on of those help you in some way if that's your problem lol.)

Ive tried everything ... Im losin hope...

Anyone knows what im doin wrong, I did everything the forums said... and still cant connect... Im sad Q.Q
I click start game, and all it does is just flop and crash. But it did connect fine to the nDoors server though.

| West about that.... first i go download the playluminary? and then patch it,after that downloading the client of ijji.
if the ijji client is done ,ill go copy the Ndoorsclient (except for the serverip,dat) and then paste it to ijjiclient and obc ijji client have own serverip.dat
so i it dont need copy from Ndoors, if im finish imma go to the ijji client find the serverip.dat rigth click it >properties>then click the ok.
is this rigth? xD tell me West ASAP!!! xd |

Location: Minnesota | I've already stated what you need to do if you have both clients installed but now anyone who has either clients are out of luck because they won't update.(you'd need someone who already has an updated version or a custom installer like the one frampton has made) |
