If I revert to the old LOCAL_IP_LOBBY.txt file will I be able to join in the races?
I don't know if you can connect direct with IP if the server is broadcast in a lobby? (Anybody know?) If it does you'll be fine... if it doesn't (& I'm speaking before consulting anybody ), my gut reaction is that we'll go ahead with the method that the most of our racers can join through. You may not be the only one that can't access this way Ligel, so at this point.... who knows p.s. you are clicking on register & not continue aren't you? I know that that screen is soo poorly designed, I've made that mistake a few times myself.

Just saying that if someone else got your key, logged on with it and you tried to log on it would reject you because there is someone else using that key. That's why we keep our keys safe.
I doubt their lobby is using the key at all. And why on earth would they collect and distribute keys which would render their own lobby servers unusable?

Laurie, try again. Eliminate your LOCAL_IP_LOBBY.txt first and download the new one. Then pay very atention at the registration steps, it's easy to click on the wrong place.

still getting the same general error message.
Laurie, can you give us the exact error message as it appears on the screen. I have managed to consistently reproduce two slightly different ones and may be able to help you further if I can see which one you're getting. All OK here, by the way.

Have just tried again and did a screen print of the error message: Have also been looking at my player PLR file. Noticed that at the end of 'Multiplayer options' section the last four lines state Host IP Address - shows "81.19.209.165" Online server - shows "GTL_SERVER.txt" Online UseName OnLine Password Could someone who has successfully connected to the server advise what their player PLR shows.

You definately put the LOCAL_IP_LOBBY text file in your GTL folder? WIth the new altbierbude address in it? Looks to me like your trying to register on the original server.

This is what it states in the new Local_IP_lobby file
'gtl-lobby.bierbuden.de'
What does your player PLR file state as the OnLine Server. Maybe I should manually up date the PLR.

Laurie, that's the error message I was getting when I tried to register using my existing details. Have you tried registering with a completely different name, password and email address from those which you were using before? Have also been looking at my player PLR file. Noticed that at the end of 'Multiplayer options' section the last four lines state
Host IP Address - shows "81.19.209.165" Online server - shows "GTL_SERVER.txt" Online UseName OnLine Password
Could someone who has successfully connected to the server advise what their player PLR shows.
Host IP Address="81.19.209.165" Online Server="GTL_SERVER.txt" Online UserName="gilliland" Online Password="(my password)"

New driver same result. Should I delete the game and start again - pain in the ass but if its the only way to solve the issue so be it.

Nothing left in your host file from other fixes? antideco patch files with the name of RUBY in GTL folder? Other than that i cant help I just re typed my same username password and email in and it worked straight away.

I'm now having trouble connecting. Has anything changed since last night, or is our server not running GTL tonight?
