Guest Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Today i tried to make a server, i'm on dialup 56kb connection. anyways i can join any other games on the internet just cant make a server. or on a network, ive disabled the anti cheat thing for the Lan, and pings, filesharing, and other TCP/IP games work fine and well. but trying to log into my server using the default port 22003 as mentioned in my server page, and with localhost as the name i get this silly error saying protocol error ( 8 ). I and my friends can all join the game, but it kicks us all out displaying this error. I've read a 100 posts on this form regarding server issues, but since i'm on a dialup connection and not a router the port part isnt an issue. oh and my firewalls are all off, the software ones, and the xp built in one. and yes i have changed my name as well. i chose akihsugoc and fuzxhjuil and 40 other names but still no go. so how can i fix this protocol issue so i can make a working server to play online, and to play offline with my lan buddies?

Jani Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Do you have the latest version (1.11)? I seem to remember the blog saying something about a protocol error being fixed. If you friends can actually connect to the server and then get kicked after they've joined, there's obviously nothing wrong with your network, it's the software's fault. Link to comment
Guest Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 yes, i have the newest one, as i downloaded it agian to check. and my friends also have the same as i do. i noticed after awhile of clicking to connect, after the protocol error comes up alot, the next error says something about flood, and i join the game.
