ttlanhil Report post Posted September 14, 2005 have you previously been on the test server, and still have it trying to go to port 2002? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smokey_the_bear Report post Posted September 14, 2005 I've never been on test server, but this is what im trying to connect to: eternal-lands.network-studio.com (this is weird, but i tried eternal-lands.solexine.fr as well to same effect) port 2000 lol you're prolly as confused as i am now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smokey_the_bear Report post Posted September 14, 2005 (edited) Yes. AND i've compiled the CVS version, including like 5 min ago (did update then compile), same message. Also it seams that it doesnt 'try' to connect for very long, just goes to err msg almost immediately. edit: typo Edited September 14, 2005 by smokey_the_bear Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smokey_the_bear Report post Posted September 14, 2005 Ok lol FINALLY, i resolved the issue. ttlanhil was correct, the client was trying to connect to 2002. However, in my el.ini port is set to 2000. I simply put a check in multiplayer.c to print hostname and port and it was 2002. Lol anyways, i should've done that when it first happened i guess. thx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ttlanhil Report post Posted September 14, 2005 sorry, I should have said to edit ~/.elc/el.ini (freakin annoying, eh?) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
