Are you sure it's the 2.0.7.4 from Krill's signature? I'd try downloading and reinstalling it. I know I was able to connect with no problem using the mod from his sig.

Donovan, I get that every time I log in to any pitboss. It's probably because you applied a rollback patch to a steam version of civ before the official version came out.

It doesn't affect anything, as far as I can tell. Just click "OK" and log in!

[Krill]

Yeah, I'd delete that folder, and redownload the mod in my sig to the Firaxis/Civ 4/BtS/Mod folder (NOT IN MY DOCURMENTS).

Although the Steam Patch problem exists too.

[GermanJoey]

Donovan, are you still waiting at the login screen? I can connect to host, but I'm stuck at "Connecting to peer..."

[Thoth]

bah. I'm stuck at work for another hour and a quarter.

Thanks for hosting Caledorn!

Thanks for doing the grunt work Grimace!

[Donovan Zoi]

Yeah sorry, Jojo, I am out now.

Thanks, all. I'll give it a shot. I did have the mod in the correct folder and had recently installed 3.19 but not from Steam. I try the one from Krill's sig just to be sure.

[Donovan Zoi]

OK, success! Glad my issues were only a minor distraction on Opening Day.

Good luck everyone.

I'm having problems connecting.

I was able to log in and claim my civ, but I can't actually play. After it loads the game data, civ closes very quickly. There's some sort of in game message that I can't quite read fast enough- something about the game file password I think.

I followed Novice's instructions for adding natneg to my hosts file. I've got civ4 complete with the 3.19 patch, and RtR mod 2.0.7.4. I'm running civ on Windows XP inside VirtualBox, if that makes a difference.

Anyone have any ideas?

[Grimace]

How are you running the mod? Are you starting civ then loading the mod? Or did you load it at the command-line?

[Krill]

I gotta ask why virtual box?
