Multiplayer wont work

Post by steve-h8 »

Hi

I have a problem, I brought a laptop and decided to put FOG, ROR and LT on it, it worked fine for 5 days on all features including multiplayer. Then for some reason I could not get on the multiplayer anymore, what can I do so I can use it again. PS, I can still get on it on my PC .

1.5.4?

Are you at verson 1.5.4 on your laptop? You need to upgrade to that for multi-player.

When you say you cant get on - what is the issue?

You can't find the server? Your password fails?

I had that problem too... the consequence was that all my unread marks were lost, so now I have to look at the time of all recent posts to determine what I haven't read :(

OK, lets hope it sorts out my laptop problem, its a good job I can still play on my PC. How long do you think it will be before things are sorted.

I don't know if my problems are related but having reinstalled windows xp on my PC and got FoG working again for MP games I then installed 1.5.4 and now cannot play. It thinks I'm back at 1.1.1 according to the message I'm getting.

I have managed to get it working; I uninstalled FOG, ROR & LT. Then reinstalled them all getting all the updates, think there were 5 of them,one of which took 30mins. That didn’t happen the first time I installed them, anyway all working good now. Hope my experience will help others with the same problem!

Cheers Steve
