I know I was working with you in the lobby last night, and we were able to get you launched into a game, with you acting as host, as a single player in the game room. This means that you have the right version of the game/patch installed and that the generics work. However it failed to "connect" to any of the other players, either as a host or as a joiner, which means that the ports needed are blocked. (We know it's not the windows firewall, which sucks, because you turned that off and that allowed you to launch as host and get into the multi-player lobby).

We also talked about your internet 'feed' and speaking to the tech folks to talk about the ports. Hope you can get that part sorted out.

Hey everyone - long time no see. Mad_Bone here , great site guys and great job!

OK - By Trial and error I Got it running , here's what I did. Removed current Nvidia Drivers and re-installed Forceware 93.71 found here http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_2k_93.71.html .Then applied EXE Patch only not the DLL or csfix and bada bing - I'm back in buisness. Now to figure out where my JS and headset are

Glad to see you got the problem sorted out... thanks for posting the link for others, if they need it.

Now just need to sort out the router ports issue - will save that for another day But the game is running great - thanks for everyones work on this.

I'll grab you the ports later tonight. Hope you guys stick around until i move somewhere with good Broadband again, Satellite is worse than Dialup for gaming it's rather sad. If you guys need any tech tips on getting Crimson skies to run in XP with Hardware let me know. I'm curious if anyone has gotten it running Windows 7 with the Radeon 4xxx series

Just thought I'd drop in and say hi!

Also, I'm installing the game on Windows 7 Pro x64 with 2x HD3870 in crossfire. I'll edit this post with the results and any fixes that I come up.
