it goes to the concourse, anyone know why?
And yes i have reinstalled
Hey mole
not real specific... so answer these questions so we can help you...
What exactly happens? do you have the RFP installed? the 2.02 installed? what is your Internet provider? what do you connect at? what modem are you using? and how do you connect?
well i play it on the zone, and so the zone should automatically load it into the multiplayer connection screen, the 1 half mins or disconnect one, but instead of doing that it just goes into the concourse, i don't have any of the "upgrades" on, but i do have 2.02 installed, it used to work but the stopped, so i uninstalled, deleted what was left, then did a complete reinstall, but the problem still occurs. My friends have no idea i don't, so does any one else? and the modem is a normal 56K modem.
Thx to anyone who can solve this one.

What is your internet service provider? because some of the free ones interfere with XWA game and the internet
Its Freeserve BT surftime, but i have had xwa working for quite a while and then it stopped and just wont work anymore
Maybe something changed on your ISP's end. Also, do you have a firewall going?
I don't have a firewall, but if it is the ISP's end i'm not to pls bout it

I am not sure how Freeserve works, but sense "free" is in the word i will assume it is a banner type ISP... which do not like XWA because you cannot minuimize while playing the game.
you might want to have a 2nd ISP for gaming with XWA
OK 2 things..... it has worked before correct? If so have you installed any new video drivers or any other drivers? Also, turn off any proxies you may have turned on in Internet Explorer. I have had this exact problem, the zone told me to turn off proxies, but in the end I discovered it to be my new video card drivers, so having a TNT2 chipset I went over to nVidia.com and downloaded their drivers instead of the ones CreativeLabs gave me and everything was up and running once again. Hope this helps. I had the EXACT same problem of going to the concourse.

I was talking to some one bout the video driver issue and i had installed the latest beta drivers for my asus geforce, i now have the release drivers and i'm just about to see if this has solved the problem. so hope for the best. Thx for the help it was getting on my nerves.
Well it now works, i have gone back to the release drivers and it now works, the drivers i was using was the Asus drivers for the V6800 version 5.33a which are beta, but the release drivers do work, so
