So today, I tried to launch EIR, and it asked me to insert my opposing fronts disc for a validation check, which is something that I haven't had to do since my original install.  Any idea what's up?  I was able to locate the disc, but it was a little irritating, especially when my drive likes to keep spinning while I play.

I have opposing fronts by disc, and the normal CoH through steam.

Relic is down.

Shouldn't be long before it goes back up .

[DFKR]

cool beans

[Kolath]

Yeah the "insert disk" is what CoH does if it can't access the relic server to log you in.  It is the backup method of copy protection.

But from the standpoint of EIR if Relic down you just have to wait to play.

[GinelSaavedra]

Oh, so THAT was it.

Today, a little after starting an EiR game, I seemingly dropped out. Then, when I tried to reconnect, I just couldn´t. First I have to insert the disc to enter the game, then when I want to connect it asks me to insert the disc AGAIN to validate it. After I have done that and clicked continue, the DVD drive hums...

And I´m again on the game´s main menu, but still disconnected.

So, this will be solved soon, I hope?

it´s working for me...

[Unkn0wn]

Seems to work for me too, odd.
Either way, nothing we can do for you .

[GinelSaavedra]

Well, it seems my game won´t work, for whatever retarded reason it is.

I mean, I just don´t understand why the hell it won´t connect. I was playing yesterday some EiR, then the game dropped about four minutes into it. Mind you, everything else works just fine. Ventrilo, web browser, the internet connection in general... everything is fine BUT Opposing Fronts, which won´t log into Relic Online, so I can´t play multiplayer.

And I don´t get why. If my DVD drive didn´t work, I would understand, but it does work, otherwise I wouldn´t be able to get into the game in the first place. My account is perfectly fine, since it has been working without a problem for about a year.



Now, Unknown, you said Relic Online was down. You meant, like, it was down yesterday? And then it got back up and everybody´s been able to play perfectly well both in vCoH, and in the mods?

[fldash]

What happens when you launch COH/OF without trying to launch a mod with it?  Does it still fail to connect?  If so, try to get help on the Relicnews.com forums.

[GinelSaavedra]

Yeah, it still fails. At first, I tried going through the mod launchers, but now I´ve just been trying to get vCoH working, and it won´t work.

I guess I´ll visit the relic forum, aye...




+Edit:

Ok, for some stupid reason, their forum won´t accept hotmail accounts for registration, so I can´t join. But anyway, it seems I am not the only one having problems with this. It seems that, yes, the server drop at Relic Online screwed up the logging in/out of some people. So I guess it rests on Relic´s shoulders to solve this.

Should I... should I be worried...?

[Killer344]

ask akranadas about it :p.

[GinelSaavedra]

Ok, problem solved.

What I did was uninstall EiR and a few hours later the game was fine again. I don´t think uninstalling EiR did anything, but... just in case.
