Unable to join games despite W3Connect

Postby WizardOfNES » Sun Oct 28, 2018 9:42 pm

For several days now I have been completely unable to join any games I host through the ENT bot, despite being logged in to the latest WC3Connect.

Support is requested.

@WizardOfNES where is the problem? do you see games in LAN list (make sure you're opening WC3 and going to Local Area Network, the button when you first open WC3 just below "Battle.net")?

@runny so you see the games in the WC3Connect app, but not in LAN list?

@runny can you try disabling your firewalls and see if it works? If it does work, you can turn the firewalls back on and add an exception for WC3Connect.

Also, if you host a game from another computer on same LAN, can you see it on your computer?

@uakf.b

1. I turned off windows firewall
2. run wc3connect as administrator
3. run wc3 as administrator

result: failed, do not see any games.

unfortunatelly i do not have any other pc to try to run on local lan :(


i guess that i must give up on playing wc3 :D

It shows up in the list, yet every time I double click to join the game in the War3 custom game menu, it says the game was not found, and when I go back to the Wc3Connect it still shows up there til it automatically cancels within two minutes.

It was working just fine until about nearly two weeks ago, and firewall settings are exactly the same as now as they were then.

Hello @WizardOfNES

Is this still an issue?

If this is still an issue, you can try using GProxy++ by varlock on our wiki, to see if this fixes any issues you may be experiencing. Do note, the client has been updated with support for wc3connect, however, it's the same ol' GProxy by Varlock. The how-to-use is available on our wiki, and the initial setup guides you through wc3connect setup when launched.
