Title: Cannot connect to other gamers
Post by: Bleistift on April 30, 2012, 01:31:58 PM
Hello, sorry for my bad English at first.

I Have a Problem to connect to other EF public games. My EF version is 1.6.1.0 and i cannot believe that the hole community which I see has an older version.
When i host a game, I can play without problems against the Computer in Online games.
I thought the problem is perhaps that i have a soundmod in my CoH OP and some other skins and that is the reason that i cannot connect to others cause the game think I have another version.
So I installed EF-mod in a "clean" COH dictionary and hoped that it worked but again all EF-games are not available

Pls help me THX forward

In this case the reasons you cannot connect other players could be:

a) Having custom skin packs or sound packs.
b) In case of updating, some older files were not deleted.
c) Maybe the other guys you want to join have option a or b.

Are you sure you deleted everything before reinstalling CoH? Are you sure you install EF with admin rights?

Ok thx for the help, that is really bad that skin and sound packs are the problem that i cannot connect to others, but i doesn´t understand it because with the normal coh aren´t any problems when i have different skins and sounds installed, what is the reason that it doesn´t work with EF-mod?

If your skin pack alters rgd files it not only won't work with EF but probably with any other mod :-\.

I tested my cod with other mods too for example Blitzkrieg and MC but there everything is fine and it work pretty well, but why the EF-mod has a problem with the campatible to others. I think with normal coh and other mods it works too, why EF-mod should be a exception? Can u fix it in the future that everyone who has the same version of coh and EF can play together?
