Cant connect guys- Help me.

I need multiplayer action, let me know if you need more info to help me fix this issue.


The wife is giving me hell........"You bought it and it doesnt work?" to quote the wife.

Help me before I loose the house in the divorce settlement.

thanks.

Please make sure you ran the second installer with all the components as well. Reinstall after a reboot would be my first suggestion to make sure it's all setup right.

Muzrub, you old reprobate, good to see ya!

Can you be a bit more specific on your connection probs? Where? In BHQ? Direct connection? Game Spy, or what?

What and where are you having the problems? Also, what is your brand of firewall and do you have a router with a firewall enabled?

Other than that, you will lose the house in a divorce. That is a given, even if you do get to keep the door mat. So help us help you with the conn problems with a bit more intel.

If this helps you help me then that would be super! I need to sort this out before the wife senses weakness. If you need any further info let me know. I also have Mcfee for a firewall and I believe its set up correctly- I have never had issues with it before and I'm heavily addicted to downloading.

Thanks guys.


BTW my problem is trying to connect with the single player server and the MMCIII, when I try to connect. Even battle HQ is giving me grief.

Do you have JAVA installed and running?

check here:

I just done the test and it says its working.......

Any other ideas.

Thanks

Have you run the server.exe before running the MMCC3 client, like it says in the manual?

C:\Program Files\Close Combat\Close Combat III\Server\Server.exe

Hi schrecken.


Well it looks like I might be able to keep the house!

Idiots like my self sometimes need someone to point out the obvious.
Thankyou[&o]

Thanks for everyones help, I'm off to hide in a very deep hole- oh the shame!

See this is part of the problem! This is not in the MMCC3 manual right? I've got like 6 manuals with the game.

Someone needs to post exactly what you need to do to get MMCC3 running. Let's get organized with a sticky here and get everyone playing the one feature that I believe most of us bought this game for. I just talked with a someone online who's got their ports configured and didn't know about server.exe either.

Please help us out here. Make a sticky with some instructions.
