Re: MP Game - Lost Memories
Still can't log on this morning, I'll try this afternoon when I get home. Not sure if it might be a server problems or me. I can log into my other QH games but this one keeps freezing up on the waiting for info screen, and advice would be appreciated.

Re: MP Game - Lost Memories
You know what works for me Bale....
When it locks up. Leave the game frozen and start a second dominions game (Running from window mode). The second running of Dominions never freezes, but the first Dominions window always freezes.
Don't know if that makes any sence to you. Computers pretty much suck. So to re-cap. Run Dominions in windows mode. It will lock up. Without closing the locked up program, Run Dominions again.
This has been working fine for me. But Bill Clinton and Al Gore were inventing the internet when my NEC was made.

Re: MP Game - Lost Memories
This has been happening to me too lately. I'm going to try YellowCactus's solution and see if it works.

I tried what YellowCactus suggested, but I cannot connect at all.

Re: MP Game - Lost Memories
Might be the server needs to be restarted. Illwinter thought they'd caught that one, but communications issues are a real bear to debug and work out.
Other than that, what happens when you fail to log in? Does it hang at the "waiting for game information" screen, or is it telling you that the server can't be contacted, or what? When it fails at the waiting for game information screen, a brute force solution often works: 3-6 tries to connect usually will get you in.

Re: MP Game - Lost Memories
Server restarted. Should be working now. (At least when I connect, I get to the "select a nation" screen.)
Unfortunately, the errorlog doesn't say anything, so I'm not sure what caused the problem.

Picking a nation....
Okay, now log in as Ulm and give all his gems to Acroscephale. Ulm will find that amusing to no end!
