Trouble Connecting to the server

Post by BSG75 »

When i try connecting to the server it says that the operation is taking longer than expected and then the no connection window comes out and i cannot connect.
I can"t fiind the reason for that and my internet is free of other applications when i try to connect so that"s not the problem i think.
Please help :(

I see that you have been here at least since the 7th of august last year. Did you change anything about your FL installation since then? If so, please explain what.

Well i did no changes to FL since i went to the 2115v6 and i have unblocked FL from the firewall a long time ago so that"s also not the problem,but i never had problems connecting before so i have no idea why this is happening.I wonder if reinstalling FL could fix it.

Well it's pretty weird that your connection has been ok all the time, and now suddenly causes problems. On the one hand I wouldn't change anything since you have been good until now, but then again it's not working for ya now. So I wouldn't know what to do tbh m8.

When making post like these could you please be a little bit more specific and give out more details?
For example:

-What Operating System you are using
-Naming your in-game characters (so that Admins can check them in case one of your chars may be corrupted by an overload of 100+ items in the ship Cargo bay)
-Your Freelancer Mod Manger Version
-What Version of the Void Mod you have currently activated in the Mod Manager
-Any additional error messages showing up

And so on...

I am running on XP with service pack 2.My ingame characters are:
[-ORION-]>BSG,[-ORION-]>BS<BSG,BSG-ARMORY-,BSG[T],NorthWestern.
I am using Freelancer Mod Manager version 1.3 with 2115v6 version of The Void Mod.
The error is : The connection to the server has been lost.Either the server you were connected to has crashed,or your Internet connection to that server is not wroking.This is usually an itermittent problem.Please try again later.
I just reinstalled FL and still the same thing.
