Unable to host games after the new update

posted on May 2nd, 2011, 2:39 am

Prior to the new update I was able to host games via tunngle with no issue, however since the update other players can no longer see my games so I'm unable to host. I have exhausted my ideas on how to remedy the problem with no success and wanted to know if perhaps anyone else had any insight on the issue.

I don't know why this suddenly has changed for you. Are you sure this is not system specific? (firewalls etc). Could you confirm that with the old versions games are visible for others?

hmmm int sure if its relevant but after  i DL the new patch mt tunngle did say this "deaktiviertes oder unsichtares fenster kann den fokus nicht erhalten" and i have lost just a few people i could see before in tunngle ......but i also have problems with connecting with people because the type of internet i use.

I tried going back down to 3.14 and my games weren't visible. I then tried completely disabling my firewall and it worked. I am somewhat confused as to why it is having issues now though as i'd set both tunngle and fleetops as exceptions when i initially started playing fleetops and had no issue until I installed the new version. Is there any chance that the newer version of fleetops needs access to an additional program or function in addition to those?

Did you instal the latest version to a folder different from what the last version was installed to?
e.g.
"C:Program FilesActivisionStar Trek Armada II Fleet Operations 3.1.5"
vs.
"C:Program FilesActivisionStar Trek Armada II Fleet Operations 3.2.0"

If the folders are different, I think you'll have to add exceptions for the new paths since I believe the firewall does expections based on file paths.
