Dynaverse 3 problem
« on: October 27, 2010, 01:27:00 am »
I've been trying to get on dynaverse 3 on starfleet command, but it always stops at Starting directplay test host 90 seconds, 60 seconds, 30 seconds ect...

I've installed the beta patch, the access server directory, opened the ports, allowed firewall access and disables upap.

Thanks in advance.

It's not working, but it is now saying that it can't connect to my external up adress, then it tries to connect to my local adress and stops at 30 seconds.

Review the ports required for connection:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/240429

Ensure you are using the correct ones. (DirectX 8 for SFC3 - note the UDP and TCP distinctions)

I can check the logs to ensure that other people are connecting. (it is a pain for me to get my SFC3 client going...I have to move a monitor, wait ages for the old system to boot up... anybody got a known good SFC3 install handy for a quick check?)

Edit: looks ok on the server end... last connection:

I've checked the ports and it still says the same thing.
