MP server test

Reverend Zombie · #1 March 29th, 2004, 04:22 AM

Howdy. I am experimenting running a Dom2 server on my new network. I would appreciate if folks would try joining my game at

i.p.: zombie.dyndns.org
port: 4040

and reporting their success or failure here. I want to make sure I have my firewall and so forth configured correctly. If this works out, I may be able to host on a regular basis.

Thanks!

I've connected without any problems. It works fine

Well, I can't connect as for the moment.

Hope this helps.

I can't connected neither.

Thanks for the feedback.

I have noticed the following from time to time with Dominions2. If I leave the computer running idle for extended periods of time after playing Dom2 with either the monitor off, or the screensaver on, the system is locked up the next time I try to wake the monitor. (Black screen, keyboard locked, have to "hard" reboot.)

That's why you can't connect now, so that tells me I need to find a way around my "idle lockup" problem.

Has anyone ever heard of this?

I'm assuming you're running XP. What other items do you have to suspend on idle eg Network card etc. I'd be tempted to not have anything suspend. See if it then locks up and work from there.
