After installing v1.4 multiplayer games always freeze when I exit from the server. This is a total freeze where the only solution is a hard reebot. Ctrl+Alt+Del do not work unless I use them before the server close. The problem occures both when hosting a game and when I`m joining games hosted by others. It is really annoying having to restart the PC for every multiplayer game. I occationally had the same problem with v1.3, but the Ctrl+Alt+Del did work with v1.3, so it was no big deal. Any suggestions?

I can`t figure out how to change default port from 2234 to 46000? It can be changed on the multiplayer menu, but the settings don`t stay next time I run the game. When hosting games through Gamespy Arcade it seem to be impossible to change the port. Any suggestions?

Good news: It seems like taskmanager (Ctrl+Alt+Del) actually is working, it`s just hidden behing the OPF screen So hitting Ctrl+Alt+Del, waiting a few sec, then hitting Alt+E, waiting a few more sec and hitting Alt+E again does terminate OPF on my Win XP system. It`s not a perfect soulution, but at least I dont have to reboot all the time.

Thank you Jillac, I will try the same thing and se if it works. If it don’t I could always go back to v.1.2 that was the last version without disconnects and freezes during exit from multiplayer.

I got the same problem when hosting games. Occationally I can host a game for a long time without problems, other times I get session lost messages every few minutes. I got DSL/NAT with all ports forwarded just like Jillac. Win XP. No problems hosting any other games.

In v1.3 I frequently get "session lost" messages when hosting. Sometimes it happens after just a couple of minutes. Usually I can play a while before I get any problems though. This never happened l with v.1.2. Win XP DSL w/NAT No firewall
