Jawnz Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 hey fellasThis issue started just a few days ago, everytime i try to join rencorner marathon it's getting stuck on the message "joining game" with a blank black screen then it's displaying the message " Connection to the server was broken. Please quit" with the same blank background. i can notice the green message usually displayed during gameplay " Connection to the server interrupted - gameplay pending" also merely visible in the background.What's so pissing off is that all other servers are working just the best one isnt! <_<note. i dont know why i cant use the printscreen feature during the game loading. i hope my description was enough.thx in advance for any replies.. cheers xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StJohn Gumby Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 How are you normally joining? GSA or WOL? are you using RenList or another connection program like Renconnect or RenIP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawnz Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 hey i'm connecting through GSA and i usually use renlist but i also tried Gamespy and the same situation occured :/ i have no explanation for it. it was just working perfectly till a few days ago, i dont know if there has been some alteration in the server settings recently? anyway thanks for ur reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volcom Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Send me ur ip and the name(s) you usually play on and ill look into resolving it for u. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawnz Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 After it had stopped working through my connection (IP: 193.188.136.21), i managed to join the server through my neighbor's connection (IP: 77.42.169.198). I only play using the name "Jawnz" i havent used any other name as far as i remember.thank you guys for all the help, appreciated . *BEST SERVER* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volcom Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Open up your command prompt and paste this in c:WestwoodRenegadeGame.exe +connect 208.115.205.106:5000 +netplayername "Jawnz" Take a screen shot of an errors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawnz Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 alright well i tried that and it didnt display any error in the cmd, it just launched the game and again stalled on "joining game" like before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volcom Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 do u have a firewall running? or does your router? The weird thing is that ip has never entered our server. Can you go to www.ipcow.com and post me the ip from there? Are you on a different device while trying to join the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaitan Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 When you read this, I want you to try and join the game. Then immediately post afterward(this way we have the timestamp of it, since we aren't here 24/7). So we can see if anything gets shown as to "why". As it stands, I've found not one thing on you, your ips, your serial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyld1 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 The game stopping where it is says it is not making any connection to the server. just so you know the 3 of us brainstormed about this tonight on ts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawnz Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 alright guys i've just tried again at this moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawnz Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 i am indeed providing you the ip through ipcow . and the fact that it's working over my neighbor's connection but not over mine would give me an idea that my computer firewall isnt blocking it.I'm going to try two things:-try to connect through my brother's computer (is it normal that we have the same ip on ipcow?)-reset my router and set it up again. (note: my neighbor has the exact same router THOMSON TG585 v7) in any case thank you guys a lot for your time and efforts , i'll let u know if sthg works out..cheers xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawnz Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 nothing has worked so far. i assume it might be a problem from my Internet Service Porvider itself .. maybe they have changed something recently. my neighbor's ISP is different. anw I managed to take a screen shot of the blackscreen just in case it makes a difference. on top of this blank screen is first displayed the message "joining game" then after about 10 seconds: " Connection to the server was broken. Please quit".I have just tried connecting to rencorner snipe and AOW they both work.. just the one that matters Marathon isnt working. other servers also work flawlessly . :unsure:through Ipcow my ip right now is 193.188.136.19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volcom Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 And it is only on your internet rencorner doesn't work? But at your neighbours house on your computer you can connect fine? Did your brothers computer connect? This is a strange predicament lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaitan Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 The ip of you in Snipe today is: Jawnz 80.79.159.107. I am not finding one thing that's keeping you out, or anything of you trying to join. Are you sure you tried the line that Trojan posted? Make sure the pathway is your ren path. c:WestwoodRenegadeGame.exe +connect 208.115.205.106:5000 +netplayername "Jawnz" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawnz Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 @volcom : yes and specifically marathon. as i've mentioned rencorner snipe and rencorner AOW both worked over my connection. and i had the same trouble while trying to join from my brother's computer which had the same IP as mine according to IPcow :/. so i guess sthg to do with the IP that is provided to me by my ISP ? . but i dont understand @Shaitan you said the ip in snipe was different than the one displayed by ipcow. is that normal ? i reassure that i connected successfully to recorner snipe from that same connection of my own with the same IP that was 193.188.136.19. my ip today is 194.126.31.8 and i tried the cmd procedure again with no errors displayed in the cmd but still same problem inside renegade. i attached a screenshot. i have just tried again rencorner snipe and rencorner aow and both worked just fine. i notice they all have the same IP but a different hostport. i dunno why my IP doesnt like to connect to that number 5000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaitan Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Earlier on Snipe: [Disconnect] Jawnz(80.79.159.26) <- And yes I have seen that, a fellow named Karl from MP-Gaming had the same issue where his provider had his games set to different ips than his web-based net. It played hell with an irc based mod tool we had over there. Dx Hmm if it dislikes the main port of 5000, try using the gamespy port: 208.115.205.106:5003 If that doesn't work, idk. Am at a loss of what to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joetorp Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Are you using a firewall? If so, did you try connecting without it? If that worked, you may need to check the firewall settings and make sure it allows port 5000. I had a similar problem in the past, and that was the problem.

Jawnz Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share Posted April 25, 2013 @shaitan i've tried to connect through port 5003 with similar results. i'm kinda giving up too as the situation is looking out of our hands thanks for your suggestion joe but i disabled everything (firewall, antivirus...) with no different result which was kinda expected since all other servers were running through firewall with no issues and that if i connect through my neighbors i can get into marathon even with firewall on and with no trouble. :/ really appreciate your replies guys but i guess it's starting to look like a lost cause.
