Can't connect to (any) server - Fattierob - 07-09-2009 Hello. My first post here, so excuse me of i'm violating any forum decorum. Basically, I am unable to connect to any server. None of the servers show up in the game list. It sits there at "Connecting to game server". I briefly saw a server list once, but upon trying to connect to it, it said "server is taking longer then expected" and nothing happened. Yes, I have tried it with my firewall turned off (I have it set to allow all traffic for freelancer.exe anyway) Yes, I have tried it with my AV turned off Yes, I have tried it with both turned off. Yes, I am behind a router - the router's firewall is off. I have ports 2300-2801 open on both TCP/UDP. Yes, Vanilla Freelancer doesn't work either Yes, I have become slightly frustrated by this. :D I've tried running a tracert to one of the servers (the USA discovery one) and it ran fine. No dead hops in the path or anything unusual. Oh, computer specs: 3ghz dual core, 2gb ram, windows xp SP3, Firewall is COMODO, AV is Avast! Any help would be much appreciated! Can't connect to (any) server - Birdtalon - 07-09-2009 You run Vista? Can't connect to (any) server - johnpeter - 07-09-2009 Yep, I'm having the same problem as well as half the vista users in the community. I dun know how to fix it. Can't connect to (any) server - Fattierob - 07-09-2009 No, i'm running windows XP service pack 3 Can't connect to (any) server - Errant.Venture - 07-09-2009 Ok the first thing that needs to be asked is, is it a legal copy, I.E. you have the original game disc? or is it an ISO, MDF, or copy of one. If its not a legit copy PM me i may have a way to help you. If you cant run vanilla, then its an install problem, or you have a corrupted copy, as even the vista users that couldnt connect to the server can still play single player. im betting on your install, or copy. I assume you have the following: 4.85 reunion mod FLMM 1.31 Can't connect to (any) server - Fattierob - 07-09-2009 I do indeed have a legit copy. Bought this game many years ago. Huh, a corrupted install? I've reinstalled twice to no success in getting anything to appear in the server list.... Your assumption is correct. I have 4.85 mod FLMM 1.31 Can't connect to (any) server - Errant.Venture - 07-09-2009 and you still cant log onto the server? thats very very strange for xp, as i run it, with sp3, and still run all my antivirus programs.... hmm....this is quite strange. let me do some research....ill post back when i figure something out Can't connect to (any) server - Fattierob - 07-10-2009 So, anything I can do to try to resolve this issue? I would like to play. Can't connect to (any) server - Fattierob - 07-13-2009 I hate to be rude in double posting, but could I ask how to find out if, for whatever reason, my IP address is banned by the server? It would make some sense why I can't view or connect to any servers. Can't connect to (any) server - darthbeck - 07-13-2009 try running freelancer as an admin. it should help. |
