Have you tried Direct Connecting? I'm not sure if it helps bypass some of GameSpy's issues or not, but I direct connect from a link on my desktop and it seems to just skip the GameSpy crap for the most part. Then again, I've never really paid much mind to how it works. >.<

If you're getting those silly errors, just keep trying to log in. <_<; I shouldn't be making assumptions though when I don't know the issue. Oops!

1. Change your ip (reset internet connection)
2. Go from LAN option with Direct Connect.

The problem isn't exactly connecting. I can connect and see my characters, who's on, etc. The problem is that when I click "play," instead of loading the screen gets stuck between. Essentially, what I end up with is a black screen. I attribute this mostly to the fact that gamespy says kymlun has 3000 + ping for me and it's so slow in loading the loading screen, that it gets stuck.
Hope that makes sense. ;) I've encountered this problem before and it usually resolves itself in a few days. However, I'm unsure if it will resolve itself before tomorrow.

I've experienced that myself a few times a long while ago, but it resolved itself fairly quickly. I wish I knew what actually caused it...

Yes it's a friday night traffic thing at your university, your broadband is so overused right now that you should just log on as player. I'll help you tomorrow anyway. Don't worry, come play with me.

Just to let you guys know tomorrow's gonna be touch an go as to whether I'll be there dead on time. I usually spend an hour and a half in the gym. Usually get there at 4:30, meaning I get out at 6. At which point it is a tendancy of mine to shower and wash the crap out of my hair, which takes half an hour because, let's be honest, if I didnt wash my hair enough to make it the best hair in the world then no male with long hair would ever have a figure to look up to as a god! So puts my calculations at 6:30 assuming something doesnt explode or I dont suffer cardiac arrest. If I do happen to be late for whatever reason, no matter the reason, I'll sure as hell be trying to get to the computer through means of brute physical violence (Even in the case of the afore mentioned cardiac arrest.)

I'll text Galiae if anything goes wrong, unless I have a stroke and lose the use of my hands, in which case I can't type anyway so my presence isn't going to make much difference.


So! in a round about way.

If I not der @ 7 DW bout it I b der suun.

That's fine Vince.

Also I located the problem, it's not just the lag, there is something with the mod that makes you need to switch your dm avatar when you log in. I took another instance of my avatar and it loaded in while the previous one didnt.

I've tried all of my avatars and even tried making a new one to log in, as well. Unfortunately, none of them worked so I don't think it's an avatar problem. I still view it as a "my computer has trouble connecting to Gamespy (which always times out) and then when it connects to the server, it's lagging too much to log in as dm" problem.
This also means that I won't be able to set up for the event today or run it. If someone else wants to, please go ahead. It has to be run in a castle-like area and not involve a church or priest.

Cutting the gym out of today due to searing pain in the midsection. Not a good plan to go around hefting things if it is going to make me make a pavement pizza.


And did you try to direct connect? It should cut the Gamespy crap right out. Let me see if I can find a link for you.


---

Okay first thing you need to do is locate your run command. You can do this on XP by going to start - run. Vista it's probably easier to use your search function, type "Run" in there and hit enter and it'll come up with the run box, saves on the looking around. (If you're using Linux or MacOS then use whatever the hell they use to run things directly)

Then you'll need to type the following in:

nwmain -dmc +connect kymlun.com:5122 +password PWrdHere

After that's keyed in hit enter again and it should process it all and you should then have cut out the gamespy crap and be connected directly to the server itself.
