Help! Just started having problems after playing for weeks.

Post by Brantley »

Recently I've encountered the problem of when joining a multiplayer game on the Red Alert mod, I cannot change anything. Faction, Team, Starting Position, even player slot. I can host my own games and change these, but can't in someone else's hosted game.

This literally just started happening out of nowhere. I tried changing to the unstable test versions, but there are no servers for those. I uninstalled and reinstalled, no beans.

What do?

Have you tried using a different map? Some maps (my missions come to mind) will lock faction/team/starting spot/etc.

Yes, I've tried joining every availible server to join, populated and empty. I've also tried talking to players via chat, no replies.

Sounds like a firewall problem or something blocking the connection.
