Bad connection to servers
« on: April 29, 2007, 06:11:15 pm »
Thanks for fixing the lobby. The servers now refresh very fast. I had this problem before even when the lobby wasn't working. You try and join any server and it says connection accepted infinitly. It won't join the game. And when you try to play with bots, you get an access violation error. Is this currently being fixed or not?

Regarding the access violation problem: do you have Video Compatability enabled (soldat.ini or the setup program to check)

Everytime I use Video Compatability it gives me an error message saying
Could not intialize DirectX graphics. You must have installed DirectX 8 or better. Try running Soldat in compatibility mode. When I try using windowed mode it gives me the same error. Do I need to give you a screenshot?

Update!: I used the Force Software thing and now when I join to a server it gives me a black screen, but I can hear the players moving! Yay!
