I seem to be having problems connecting to FS2NETD, I have 5.2 launcher, and the 3.6 open exe. I signed up for an account but every time I try to use FS2NETD I get a Connection Failed error .
I'm connected through an adsl router/modem to a hub which then goes to my hub which goes to my comp.
Also, I've tried allowing access with Zonealarm, and turning it off, neither changes anything.

Could anyone someone help?

DOH! I meant could SOMEONE please help... i erased please instead of anyone :S

*goes off to tug on Kazan's sleeve*

Okay, Yamix, I just got one of the multiplayer coders to look into this one... but it could be a little while.

Hmmm. I think this is one for Kazan or one of the multiplayer people to sort out rather than me. Once HLP is up (It's been down for a week or two) this should be easy to sort out.

That would be the one I IM'd about the situation, Karajorma.

I just restarted the fs2netd server.

See if that helps.

Nope, still getting it on my end anyhow, fresh install (just trying actually) brand new account and v3.6...

Sorry about the double post....thought I'd include my multilog just in case it helps....

Ack, you may need a more updated build, Kazan change some things. 3.6 might not work.

Think it's time to release an interim official build :/

Try taylor's latest build (forum thread in this forum), it should have all the updated fs2netd stuff.

Found a fix on another site, it added a file... i believe it was somethign along the lines of mv_core_b, and mine worked (I just got back to this forum)

Aha. Sounds like you were missing the config file that is in the core media vp files

I'lll have to remember that for next time someone asks

Yep that fixes it, the mv_core_b file "BUT" it does throw a "hacked tables" error and won't do stats because of it.... not sure how to fix that yet but at least I can play a game LOL

Taylors does not fix the stats issue, just updated and it still claims hacked tables.

Hacked table problem:

3.6 supports: ONLY the english root.vp tables

Latest builds support: english root.vp tables, new weapon effects (multi fix version)

Not currently validated: ships.tbl from the ShineLT zips with the alternate looks for Cain/Lilith, Fenris/Leviathan (bug Kazan about this one)
