I never noticed any. Are we allowed to advertise even though it once belonged to MS? Sites like http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm would pull in many new players. 8 vs 8 man games are common. But why not have a half dozen 25 vs 25 mans and a 60 vs 60 going all at the same time like in the old days ...

QUOTE (HSharp @ Oct 5 2009, 06:46 PM) Not the best advice para as Avast! and AVG (on xp) both work with Allegiance, avast just needs a firewall component removed but otherwise it's fine. It's much nicer to find a solution which doesn't require the user to get rid of their antivirus just to play ...

I read in another thread that firewalls may not be turned completely off even though you disabled them. Also Nortons gives Allegiance problems. I have nortens what should I do? How can I be sure Nortons is the problem? I once had a friend anti virus program expired and I had to reinstall it to turn ...

QUOTE (Grimmwolf_GB @ Dec 30 2008, 07:17 PM) Ok, your router or connection to the router is not the problem, I think. That only leaves the laptop and its firewall. You can try to control it with the nice freeware tool, I use on my vista partition:

I have DirectX 10 on my laptop, could that be why Allegiance isn't working? Or when I installed framework it says it "may not" of installed properly. I would think if 1.1 didn't install right Alleg wouldn't run at all, right? Also just to make sure I was properly update I copied my Allegiance folder ...

No I can't join any games period with my laptop. I was however able to create a game which I ...

Still no luck. I reinstalled like 12 times. I moved the folder to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Allegiance. I ran it as admin. I ran a program compatibility wizard where allegiance thinks its running on XP service pack 2. Nothing. I can see the servers listed in the lobby, I just can't connect to ...
