Blockland will not Authenticate through Key or Steam

[Shadowguy]

Hey everyone.

Recently whenever I try to boot Blockland it will just say "Authenticating.." for a while before going into offline mode. I thought the Steam version would fix this, but it does not. I've tried turning off my firewall and I've made rules in it to allow Blockland through, but to no avail. Any suggestions?

If I must:

[Shadowguy]

Just realized, I can't connect to http://auth.blockland.us/

[Lugnut]

Good catch. Have you triple checked firewalls are not blocking connection to there or something?

Still not working, even when all my firewalls are off.

wow that is a really short console.log

uh... are you missing add-ons or something? a new update was released today, 1918 or something. it probably won't fix your problem, but could you update and try again, then post the new console.log? if the whole thing fits in a post just put it there i guess.

the update includes more information put into the console that might help me figure out why this is happening: Client auth connection failed, setting demo mode

Thanks for everything.

A while back someone told me to f*** with my hosts file and add a Blockland line, I removed that and now I can connect again.
