Title: Server Problems?
Post by: NFSRacer on March 26, 2009, 03:27:53 pm

I just tried connecting to the FS2NetD servers several times, but for some strange reason, it fails to connect.  Is Game Warden doing server maintenance?

Do you have the newest nightly build?

Nightly build?  You mean version 3.6.10, right?

Wait!...OK.  Never mind.  Turns out it wasn't the servers; instead, it was (...oddly enough...) the version of FSO I was trying to run.  For some reason, FS2NetD doesn't exactly like my 3.6.10.  Very odd...

Yes unfortunately there are lots of 3.6.10s, and each of them has the distinct possibility of being obsoleted from one day to the next, until it's finalized.  This could even include the release candidates.  Even if you can connect with an older one, it could break newer builds, so please use the latest available build (currently 3.6.10 RC1).

Guess that means I'm going to have to re-download 3.6.10 again.

You may have to do so several times in the future before all is said and done. :p
