Noticed tonight that my connections are just failing if they couldn't connnect via NAT. Previously they would go to proxy. Any ideas or anyone notice teh same thing?

Since I got home from work tonight I have had continual unhandled exceptions. I have had them rarely in the past but never one after the other. Currently had 4 in a row, either when attenpting to connect to the pantheon or a custom game (tried hosting also with the same result) Here is the long from the last crash. Please help: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at address 0x100cdee5 attempted to read memory at 0x9842ec74 Pr

Hi Frogboy, Great work all round I say. One question. Is the 'Smart proxy' fix going to be part of a patch or will just be implemented? Any idea of an ETA? Thanks, Silk (A New Zealander in proxy limbo)

The smart proxy business has made my gaming day. My one Demigod problem at the moment is getting a US proxy when I am in New Zealand which means connecting to an Australian players ends up being a bad experience because the latency goes up to 550 when it should be 100. Yay, cheers Stardock. Looking forward to that fix coming out. New maps would be awesome. Cataract is getting boring

I wish they were in Australia champ so I wouldn't get +300 ping when using them

I'm in teh same boat, forced to connect to an Australian via proxy (I'm in New Zealand) and it raised my latency from 100 with them to 550

Can we get this guy warned for an offensive game name, just because you are on the itnernet doesn't mean you cna be an asshole. Oops image too small. username was funnyjunkw and the name was ni**** fag** 3v3

[quote who="dolynick" reply="3" id="2216776"]I get people stuck attempting to connect to me like that all the time when I join someone else's custom game, even though I connect to them just fine. This almost never happens if I am hosting my own custom game though. I don't think it has anything to do with multiple IP addresses, as I only have 1 assigned to the workstation I play Demigod from. No amount of port forwarding, AV software killing, firewall disabling or even D

journals are great. Looking forward to the proxy update. Personally my connections have improved but I still can't connect to one person in teh game a lot because of a NAT error. Keeping the customer in the loop is a good thing, stick with it. Personally, if you hadn't kept me in the loop, I may have gone for a refund.

heads up. Disconnection messages for me don't show any details, just an ok button

NZ ping is the same. We wont lag out your games!

Initially looked good with a 4v4 connect in my 1st custom game (versus last night when I could not get into any - NZ time). Still seem unable to connect to all people in a custom game and getting "You were disconected beacause the matchmaking system failed" message when trying to play in Pantheon. Also getting "NAT failed" message On a positive note that wa smy first 4v4 since the game released! Also getting into the custom game lobby is a lot faster for me. Now just stop Amer

Change the title but I agree with teh stop kicking business. My 250 ping from New Zealand is fine

Still not able to connect to everyone. I also got a message in pantheon when i was playing (1 other player, 2 bots). The error said "DESYNC DETECED" followed by the other human player sname and a number (beat# 5654). Error popped up every 10 seconds and could be 'ok''d dout of it

There were quite a few NZ/AUS games last night even though I couldn't connect to them. And its not even released here retail yet. Yay!

Any ideas on why I can't connect to games when my ports are opened according to portforward? If you have any advice I'd really appreciate it. Haven't been able to get home yet to try the new patch (It's 12.20pm here atm)

What if the ones you are connected through (because you couldnt connect direct to another player) are your opposition and they bail because they are losing? I'm talking about the new design

I was having a wee tanty last night over not being able to connect at all and having people ask me to stop trying to connect to them but you know what? Stuff it. it will be fixed and when it does it will be awesome. Throw in some new demigods and more maps to keep it fresh and this game will have people playing for a long time to come

Dear Stardock, I love you long time. please send me an email when I can actually play without NAT and Exception Access errors. Cheers, Silk

just get multiplayer custom games working. Enough with the NAT issues, seriously. It's been almost a month now. I'm extremely loyal to Stardock but this is old

Currently in BETA. System specs are: Intel E6850, 8800GT, 4 GB DR 2, DSL connection. Location is New Zealand. I am currently getting a lot of NAT error/failures when trying to connect to games, specifically custom games. I'd say 2/3rd of them are dropping me because of a NAT failure. I've forward my ports and changed the impulsereactor port data too but no love. Please help as I really enjoy this game but it's hard to maintain a fan when the multiplayer is so so hard to play

I've been getting the NAt error a lot too. Ports have been forwarded and everything. It does seem like there is always one person in a game who I cannot connect too. Quite frustrating when you see a 5v5 game set up in my region (Australasia) only to see the NAT failure message pop up yet again. I have been able to play some games but rarely with New Zealanders/Australians
