I have no clue why guys guys are getting the errors you are. So far version 1.3 is working well with no errors. I've been looking on the forums and others seem to have the same problems you do.

[.TuG.Bulldog]

.........as well as the above points could you give me the steps i need to follow to get on line

i have not even been asked for my cd key yet

[.TuG.Beaver]

1. Make sure that you have set you connection type in option.

 

2. To play online - click multiplayer - you then have a choice (2 tabs) of Internet or Lan - click the internet tab and it should as for your CD key to be entered and then you need to supply it with a UBI login name and password - I have it set to auto login - never had a problem yet.

 

3. Once the CD key is entered and the UBI login is done - you should then see a list of servers in the in-game browser - click on a server and then Join or alternatively if you know a server IP then click Join IP and enter the IP. ie. 81.99.95.165

 

That's it.

 

The manual should also be read as it give you some clues as to what you should be doing.

 

Rule no. 37 - If in doubt - R.T.F.M.

 

I'll hopefully be on TS later this evening or Friday & weekend - will try and help you through it.

Beaver,

 

Your probably one of those guys that reads every word of a 70 page manual when you shop a toaster.

 

 

I am glad there r people like u out there to help us lazy simple folk

[.TuG.Beaver]

lol Psyc.

 

I never R.T.F.M. unless I'm absolutely stuck with something, then I'll apply rule no. 37

 

Anyway, what kind of toaster's do they have in Sweden that require 70 page manuals?

[.TuG.Bulldog]

....I NEVER LEARNT TO READ!!!!

 

 

and whats a manual????

[UnDyingUK]

I thought a manual was something to do with skate boarding????

i just thought it was a spanish guy who brought the drinks around.

Problems solved

 

if you have any problems with RV TRY THIS:

 

 

1/ get the latest service pack from microsoft for internet explorer and your opperating system.

 

2/go to www.sun.com and get the latest java softwear (i think RV and ubi relays alot on java)

 

3/get a new graphics card

 

4/use a hammer!!

 

 

i think my problems came from java not responding causing my system to time out

 

if any one has any problems please let me know i spent the last 24 hours digging in the never ending pit of RV problems and solutions

 

......... so i can finaly play tonight friday the 27th from 7pm onwards all night hope to see you there!
