Overzealous firewall blocking outgoing stuff at will? Some strange network arrangement at your end? Have you been able to connect to other games before?

The server works all right for me... You should get the dialog asking for your game, or message that you don't have the right mods if there's some problem with them (like I had first).

edit: just a sec short of Szumo. Never in time...

I've never done one of Velusions games before. I have no problems with llammaserver though. I've been in a few games there with no difficulties.

no firewall blocking? maybe uninstall and reinstall the game... its gotta be something on your end if no one else is having issues

sorry, not much else to suggest. you have the game patched to 3.08? double-checked port and ip, no extra 0's or spaces?

lol. that's, ummm, kinda relevant

how are you trying to connect, ubercat? have you created your pretender under gametools? then go to network, put in ip/domain name, then the port... If that's what you're doing already, I would say its some sort of firewall on your end.

You can also try to connect to 67.66.187.69 Port 11123. Its another game I host... just to see if you can connect to my server at all.

It really does sound like you have a firewall setup. Try turning off any software firewalls you might have installed (whether it be windows firewall or a third party firewall). If you don't have any of those then it's probably a hardware firewall setup on your router... you'd need to open it up to get access.

The turn isn't set to host until late tonight BTW.

I tried Port 11123 and connection was instantaneous. It showed me six factions to choose from. My pretender obviously had no problems uploading and neither did the other port number. I seriously doubt it's a firewall issue since I CAN get through on anything other than 10022

I'll try some more but I'm not running my machine with a turned off firewall. If I can't get through soon then I'll just ask Velusion to set me to AI.

DOH! I meant to say Zachariahs games. I realise that the Email games aren't relevant.
