Is it still possible to play FS2 on PXO?
on: September 20, 2003, 06:10:50 pm
If so, I have a problem.  I can't get past the 'Automatically joining the public channel' stage.

However, if PXO is kaput, then this problem doesn't matter.

Seems to work. Check your settings and give it another go.

I was under the impression it was kaput, but I may be wrong... Kazan is currently implementing a brand-new "Better than PXO" Server for it, so you may want to hold out for a little while. :D

I just came from there... Make sure that you have Multi.cfg in your data folder... That seems to fix the problem.

Hmm, it still stalls at the 'autojoining public channel' stage, and I do have a multi.cfg file in my data directory.  Any other ideas what I might be doing wrong?  Thanks.

They just grow and grow with new quotes, and they never bother to prune the old ones. I myself use only one quote at a time.

Hm... If you use AOL, like me, choose 56K, not the one with (and AOL) tagged on the end... That solved my problem...

Nope, that can't be it...  I don't use AOL.  I'm sure I have the right settings in the Launcher Setup.  Dial-up internet and 56k connection speed.

Yup.  During the connection process, it goes through the logging on stage without trouble.  I know my login name and my password are both correct.

That was the first thing I tried. :)  Are there any internet-specific settings that I should be aware of?  Cookies?

Hmm, I tried disabling my firewall, but that doesn't seem to have done it.  Could PXO be downloading a whole bunch of stuff to my computer?  Should I be patient and just wait, then?
