Faf stuck on 'logging in' screen

Postby liscoe » 04 Jan 2013, 15:51

Is there a general problem or is it just me? Was working fine yesterday after update and nothing has changed since...

The 'connecting' box comes up and it 'establishes connection' ok and then just hangs for ever on 'logging in'

Thanks!

Probably the anti-bot protection. You did not logged in fast enough (due to network lag or whatever). Just retry.

Don't think it can be that- I've been trying it all morning. Rebooted pc, set firewall to DMZ my pc and I have fibre (60mbs) so it shouldn't be lag. Any other ideas?

Liscoe, I'm brand new to FAF and have the same problem. I've only had it since yesterday and it was working fine until about 9am GMT this morning when it's started hanging at the same point as you.

I'm also a little tech illiterate and can't figure out how to get logs without gaining access to the lobby and changing the settings. Is there a tutorial or instructions somewhere that can show how to do it from within the FA game or the FAF client without needing access?

Many thanks Ze_PilOt

Could only find the forever.log file - http://pastebin.com/mtmVJfuv (after paying attention to the folder destination :oops: )

Don't have any other log or txt based files in Program Data/FAForever. Hopefully it'll help

On each attempt, you failed to either enter the right user or password.

Can you try giving it right the first time ? :)

That's strange. I've tried it with the correct username and password (I can confirm by using different passwords and having it create an error) and it just hangs, and I'm now having delays with password reset e-mails arriving in my inbox which means I cannot do anything for a while until I get them and reset my password

Tell me if I can help you (but I can't reset/give you the password for you, it's crypted in the DB)
