Since the patch went live, I log in okay but on the loading screen (the one with the random pic) the progress bar gets to 100% then the whole thing just hangs. My system has to be hard booted to get out of it.

Anyone know anything about this?

Just so others know you now need to let update.bin and the new game.dll and ofc the application.exe? access through your firewalls.

[edit] if you have not done this since patch then you need to redo your settings.


also from memory (only logged on this morning quickly so i might be slightly off here) when u start the game your firewall will ask you to allow update.bin to let u patch, select the no thanks option at the login prompt, when u get to server select u will then be asked for game.dll then applicationname.exe (depends on daoc version i guess, i wasn't paying to much attention)


so those who still have probs select no thanks, else u might not see your firewall ask you to allow connection from game.dll or the application.
