Can't join Multiplayers games (fixed)

Post by SeiZ64 »

Hi everyone,

I'm a newbie in EM and i will ask you probably few questions in the future but first, i have a problem with multiplayer.

In fact i can't join a server, the refresh request works well but when i try to join it the screen remains frozen then i need to kill the task manualy.
Playing on steam v1.828 for your information and i haven't opened a port on my router for now.

Because a problem is never alone :P, i allow me to ask something else.In fact sometimes i change my nav quest by mistake then i can't display it again.confused, i would like to know how to recover this navpoint.

Thanks guys you're awesome.

What are you using for a security program and have you applied the game as an exception to that program?

As for navigation, you're probably selecting a blank sector off your SY axis.

Kapersky may be leaving behind residual changes/conditions on your system that are effecting network traffic. Sounds like something is interrupting the game from trying to establish the connection. You may want to test with it uninstalled entirely (using something else in the meantime for security as desired) to see if the behavior changes.

I turned off my firewall, still dosn't work.

I played at several games in network like diablo3, league of legends, mmo ... and i never had a problem to connect me at a server.

You could move the post in technical support if you wish.

best regards

Must be something else then. If you follow the steps here, I can review your setup for possible causes: http://www.starwraith.com/evochronmercenary/faq.htm#8

Thank for help Vice.

I followed steps from link

I use a modem/router/firewall 3in1 then i do not have to bypass it.
I added rules for tcp/udp then i tryed to host a game but that was the same result.
I reinstalled the game via Steam and it still dosn't work.

I'm really disapointed for now :(.

Ok it works now :D

The problem came from a mod that the game could not load in multiplayer but i can't say you which one.

I just remember that there was a signature of the modder in intro cutscene, something like "residentevil4.ru".

So i'll enjoy multiplayer now
