erjin999 Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 It now works as before, I guess you have an unrelated issue...Might be worth starting a new thread in tech support for EBFD, dont want to clog up this sticky thread toooo much ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 I'm seeing the same problems as Zergis and Erin. WOL has never let me in and complains about an "invalid" serial after displaying "Downloading channels" for ages. I am the only owner of this serial and it should be valid.XWIS let me log in yesterday (Wednesday 16/6) and I tried playing Leo but my laptop blue screened twice and since then i've not been able to logon to XWIS. I now get "Error: Westwood online disconnected" after clicking Custom game.I can see EBFD players via http://62.93.200.61:4005/ and I have been able to use the XWIS tool to connect directly to Ords 62.131.170.215 but there weren't any players on itI have unsucessfully tried connecting to WOL and XWIS both from home and work with and without my Agnitum Outlook firewall.I only tried different nicks after things stopped working. Can anyone help?PS Re-installing Shared Internet Components hasn't helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KALONY Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 i cant believe these problems. if u got the right server tool with the latest version for xwis, u dont need to register really....u just type in a name and a password, and whooooooo u r on.it works for me as good as it can. never get any probs with xwis. wol is more complicated. u need to register...look in the essentials for the right site, and this should work fine to, as it did for me last week, when i register a friend there.

Ryan Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 I had already registered with WOL using the Essentials suggested URL http://www.dune2k.com/forum/index.php/topic,10549.0.html and confirmed my account using the URL emailed to me by EA. Still nothing.I d/l the latest xwis from http://xwis.net/ within the last two days - no joy.I'm not even running Norton AV 2003 (McAfee instead) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leo Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Do you play other westwood games on xwis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erjin999 Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Hmmm, how do you connect to the internet ? Direct connection ? (i.e. Modem of some kind) Or a router ? You mentioned ICS, is that how you connect ?I wonder if you have a technical hitch relating to you internet connection. If you could a bit of info about your set-up. Also, posting in the tech help section would be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunner154 Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 the XWISC.zip doesn't work here either. Page not found. Sigh.And the server on Emperor seems dead.
