Need some help
« on: October 13, 2004, 08:26:27 PM »
Skuzzy,

Sorry bout the Host Connection Thread.  Wasn't really sure where to post that.   I realize this is close to the other thread but I tried alot of things to fix this including uninstalling and reinstalling the whole game but no joy.      

Gentlemen,

I cannot log into the game at all.   Everytime I try to log I get a host connection lost message.      I can go offline but not online.  I played all day today with disco's and such but now I can't log on at all.     I also dl'd Waffels soundpack today and installed it.   Could the SP be the problem?

One question.
Did you have any of these problems prior to installing the new sound files.?
If you were have the problem prior to the install then the most likely cause is the internet connection that you have.
Try running a route test to see what delays you are getting when the problem is happening.

I get the same message when I hit vox the first time - unless I hit the vox key when game first loads.  If I forget to do this I will 100% of time "Host Connection Lost:" and CTD as soon I as attempt to transmit.  If I remember to do it, I can VOX all night long.  (There is something screwy with the code somewhere but I just invented a work around and live with it.)

I haven`t had vox since the start of AHII. Hit vox and it`s whammo time.
  Posted I think 3 times in the other forum with no results.
  I just gave up. Life is simpler now. :D
  Numerous people in the last 2 to 3 weeks or so have been gettin CTDs and discos. Mine seem to come in the B-26 formations very regualr.
