Title: Stalled Hosting Problems Post by: -#1TWW-Moth*TC* on January 12, 2002, 01:43:38 pm ::)
After several great months of RS play online, I now must wait 2-3 mins when I start a hosted game. I've reinstalled the game twice and still have the same problem. Any ideas? Title: Re: Stalled Hosting Problems Post by: *DAMN Elandrion on January 12, 2002, 02:23:15 pm do you experience this when connecting (where you see some screenshot from the Canals map in RS)? I for one have manymany mods installed and I have to wait for minutes until the game starts up (single and multiplayer). If this annoys you, just delete some mods from the RS Data/Mods folder or move them to another folder like "unused mods"....

Mods have been installed before , but were deleted before the two reinstalls.
Thanks for your reply Title: Re: Stalled Hosting Problems Post by: -#1TWW-Moth*TC* on January 12, 2002, 10:41:18 pm ::)

It seems to be getting worse, texture maps are not showing up at times, and crashes more often. I could need anit virus as well.
Thanks for the info. Title: Re: Stalled Hosting Problems Post by: *DAMN Elandrion on January 14, 2002, 12:21:56 pm I'm sorry I couldn't help you much - maybe you should run SpeedDisk on your HD; maybe this helps speed up the starting process....

It seems most of my problem was my cable internet service was going through changes, and was finally fixed yesterday. It works great now. On the other problems like losing textures and crashes, I reinstalled Rs and updated to 1.0.1 and it worked fine. Thanks for the help. ;) Title: Re: Stalled Hosting Problems Post by: *DAMN Elandrion on January 17, 2002, 04:08:49 pm hey great :D
