Never connect

Post by Arianna »

If I want to connect (for multiplayer), the game ever wrote that "could not connect to host" and when I try to download new campagins, it wrote "remote host disconnected". My internet connection is fast (750kb) and I never disconnect (I don´t know how to say it, I am not from english-speaking land). Is there any way how to prove(?) it, except reinstall whole game?

I think you mean "test" instead of prove.

I mean what to do with it, but I don´t have my dictionary with me :)

Maybe he means 'remedy.'

Anyway, could there be a firewall somewhere blocking traffic to certain ports? Multiplayer uses port 15000 and 14999, and the campaign server uses 15002 if I remember correctly.

If I know I don´t use any firewall, but I can look at it...

How long do you wait for it too do it? Because if it's almost instant, something is stopping you connecting.

It is almost instant, but I am not good enough with computers to find, what it may be...

Ok are you say when you try to conect it says contectting to remote host and just stays like that forever. :?

If so I just cancel it and keep trying to connect till it goes.

For remote host dissconected try in wait for someone to bring the server up :)

download the 0.9.6 cvs version. then play it at the 14999 port (which is the default port for that version).
