long story short,, no, done everything everyone has said on here, fresh install of vista,, duelboot with xp and vista , did one with just xp alone,, and still no, guess im just one of the many people who wont be enjoyin this mod :s , the problem must be serverside, since i can see and log onto everyother server for many diffrent mods,

Just uninstall any internet anti-vrus programs you have.

Thats what i did

and it worked perfectly

Freelancer seems to have problems with certain anti-virus programs e.g. norton, macaphee, AVG

What type of Vista do you have? Since on my home premium (32-bit) I have no problems at all (but then I almost never have problems with Vista, odd, I know).
As Montezuma said, must be your firewall/ anti-virus

You can also try to run FL in windows xp sp2 compatibility mode, solves some issues I had with other games.


Vista Server Problems - WaRgYsLoGiC - 03-04-2009

no anti-virus and no firewall installed/on running vista 32bit and xp, both fresh installs

also just tried to ping the server,,, cant even ping 82.113.48.5

Go XP with no virus software. That's what I went with, put in a new HDD and installed Windows 64 bit on it. When ever I want to swap back to Vista I simply go in my BIOS and swap the boot order.

just finshed tryin that also,, and nope lol.. its only this server tho.. i can log onto any other server using this mod no problems, guess i'll just start using the berlin or rp usa one for this mod,, shame tho since this one has the most people online,


Vista Server Problems - WaRgYsLoGiC - 03-05-2009

ok just checked the other servers and they are quite dead lol, so the main server is the only way it would be worth while playin this mod,, i've tried everything tho and no luck :s
