Multiplayer login

Post by dorjun driver »

The short answer is I can't. I have a Slitherine account that works and the game runs fine standalone. When I choose the Multiplayer option, I get a status pop up that says "Initializing Multiplayer...". A couple of seconds later, the pop up disappears, leaving a gray rectangle of unfulfilled bits where the pop up used to be.[:(]

What additional information do you need from my end to help me resolve this issue?

Thanks.

I've not seen this before - could it be your PC is blocking the game from talking to the server - check your UAC settings and that there are no pop ups asking permission.

I have the UAC set to keep its filthy mouth shut. I did find, however, the permissions I had given to the firewall via its pop up, were not persisting. Looking under the hood I found the little twerp hadn't taken my word for anything, and had reset all PanzerCorps.exe permissions to "Questionable". Pilot error--as usual.[8|]

And that, my friend, is why the Blessed Oliver Plunkett gave us manual overrides.

Runs like a champ now.

Thanks Iain.
