Connection problem

[Kalki]

Hello,

Sorry, english is not my first foreign language so I hope I will be understandable.

I connect to an internet server, load the map and choose my characters and weapons. Like the others, I click on "ready" and the game start.
Here is my problem:
Just after clicking on "ready", I have the screen with the other players. But they don't move, I lose the connection to the server, I can no more speak to them and they don't hear me. When I move my cursor, my player begins to swing, but it can't move !
I tryed to reconnect but it makes it everytime.

Here is an extract from the AlienSwarm.log:

I have not this problem when I play alone on an internet server or when I play singleplayers missions.
I'm a Mac OS X user with an ADSL 2048 connection.

thanking you in anticipation, Kalki

You are missing the Telic campaign, download and install it

[Kalki]

I'v installed it ! When I play on the same map and same server but alone, I have not this problem.


I'v juste succeed to play with another player. We completed the mission and we started a new one. 2 players joined.
We all click on "ready", the game started and...I lose the connection to the server again ! I reconnect and it was the same. So it's very strange... Why do I lose the connection to the server ? Maybe take my computer to much time to load...and I became something like a "timeout" ?

A few others have had this type of troublem, somehow they get disconnected when the game starts. I have a vague recollection that one person, a regular player (Daywalker or perhaps Draven?) was blaming their ISP for the problem. Or possibly their modem. Or!

Sorry I dont have a solution but realise you are not alone

Actually, the master server seems to be a bit flaky lately ... although I dont think that has anything to do with people being dropped by a particular server.

Try testing the 'slo loader gets dropped' theory by trying a faster computer - borrow your friends!

[DeepQantas]

Hm. What kind of loading time are we talking about here?

I don't recall seeing this problem, tho. I hope it's not a Mac specific thing... :/

[Moses2k]

I hope it is. One more nail in that overly hyped coffin.

[Kalki]

I made some trys on different servers:
It happen only on the Telic server. I still get disconnected just after the game start.
But no problem on the other servers, even with a lot of players.

[Carth]

Do you get disconnected with the message "package mismatch"?

[Kalki]

No message

[Fuzzy Bunny]

Not even "connection failed" or "connection lost"?

[Kalki]

No, nothing. But, players said to me that they have seen the message "Kalki disconnected", as if I left the game but I didn't !

[Ki!ler-Mk1]

Desync?

intel coming to the mac near you now
