Order of Battle, Arctic Fox multiplayer never loads

Post by Redspyre »

I purchased OOB and tried the multiplayer PBEM mode. It's great except for the Arctic Fox scenario. I initially tried to host it and someone accepted. They did their first turn (placement) and now it is my turn. When I select the scenario and attempt to "load" t, it just gets stuck on connecting and never, ever connects. I found a note in tech support saying I have to own Winter War to play Arctic Fox multiplayer. I then purchased Winter War and it runs fine, and is a great expansion. Arctic Fox, however, still never connects. I then tried to join and/or host a "new" Arctic Fox multiplayer game figuring maybe the first one was stuck because it started before I owned Winter War. The new games do the same thing. As instructed, my output_log file is attached.

:?

Please help,
Thank you!

There's a bug with this scenario. Will probably be fixed in the next update.

You can try download this updated scenario:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ephf8hlyvdovq ... x.zip?dl=0

And copy it to your <game root>/Order of Battle - WW2_Data/Content/Scenarios/ folder. For a default Steam install this should be C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Order of Battle Pacific\Order of Battle - WW2_Data\Content\Scenarios.

That should remove the Winter War "lock" on the scenario. Alternatively wait for the next update which is coming in a few weeks :)

I have a similar problem, The arctic Fox scenario NEVER connects. A new update WAS just installed.

The link to download the scenario is gone from Dropbox. Help?

Was this game started recently, within a few weeks time? If yes, can you tell me your opponent's name so I can look up the game?
