About Polycounts BF1942 Desert Combat?
polycounter lvl 18
Bearkub: Does the game have the "DC Final" patch? I haven't been able to get in the server. It asks for the password and after I type it in I get "Failed to connect".

check your firewall
try that, Sal. You may, for some reason, not be able to resolve the name to the IP. Which is weird, because it even showed up in the server browser for me. *shrugs* Let me know what happens. Thanks.
I'll check that when i get home tonight.
It is set to not do a content check, I know that.
Sal: sometime soon lets try to set up a server for each other and see what happens. I'll host and you can try to connect and vise versa, to find which side has the problem. I'll have some time tonight.
Will...what's a good time? I'm open. It's 5:00 pm here
now.
<font color="red"> OK, get this. My server is up now. It's the DC Nutsac-erator .7 IP: 192.168.1.101</font>
BTW if I do a Google search for nibbler etc. I get John and Bernie's wedding page?
I tried connecting to your server at 8:40 PM with no luck.
"failed to connect"
not sure if you were still running or not.
<font color="orange"> Cancel that. Calling it a night. We'll figger sumpin' out. </font>
Sal out.
Sorry dood. I bailed at 8:47. Maybe tonight? I'm running the Quake3 thingy this afternoon at 3. C ya there?
I tried the DC thing but for some reason I wasn't to thrilled by it.. Perhaps I got so accustomed to BFV and BF1942 that DC didn't have the same style / feel to it. Oh well..
If anyone is interested in a BFV game or two try installing "X-Fire" and look me up ("Hunter0001") (X-Fire is a gaming buddylist that lets you track and or chat with your friends who are playing online games.. Click and join feature make it easy to jump into the same server they are in. I believe it actually has the support of quite a few of the game companies too..)
Just for clarification, is the Polyfraggers server running a regular BF1942 server, or is it just DC? Is it possible to switch between the two?
Gnaah! I just got my BF1942 CDs back off a friend I lent them to, and Disc 1 has a crack down the middle! It refuses to read in my drive!
Edit: Got round it, managed to download an ISO for CD1, then just inserted the real CD2 for completing the install, it seems to have worked. I don't mind "pirating" stuff like that if I already own the damn thing... thank gawd for cable internet speeds...
I'm all patched up to the latest version, should be good to go now!
All-Seeing Eye scans it, tells me what map it's running, and gives me a ping and everything... I can even see it in BF1942's server browser... yet when I try to connect, it gives me a "Failed to connect" message... what's with that?
Oh, and I probably won't be able to play until after 6pm your time, since I'm going out to the pub tonight... heh.
