cant join games :(

[Mikery]

nobody has this problem?

i select a game to join, loading screen comes up, i can read messages people send but my loading bar randomly stops after a bit of loading and wont continue.

it shouldent be a hardware issue because my computer is awesome and far exceeds the reccomended specs.

i have reinstalled the game and it still does not work.

Does it stop on Datablocks?

does it happen always at the same exact time?
if it doesent then its most likely your internet connection
or you are missing a file that is key to loading ll missions

[MarioSimpson]

anya said it was not stoping on the same thing all the time, as we were testing it, it would stop on datablocks somtimes, or on some random addon when anya joined a internet server... she could be missing a key file... but we tryed re-installing and it did not work.

[MarioSimpson]

She got in at one point but she had a constant red "LAG" in the top corner and could not do anything.

[General Nick]

Everyone who tried to respond (Except Chrono) was a handicap.

Start up Blockland, and try and join a game like you would normally do. When it stops, close Blockland, go to your Blockland folder, open console.log with notepad, copy and paste it here.

[cganya]

PIC PLEASE!

a picture of what? a loading screen? did i not describe it well enough already? its not something i can really tkae a picture of. the loading bar fills up steadily untill it stops, on the extremely rare occasion i make it into a game i get a yellow LAG icon and cannot move or interact at all but can still see chat.

whoever said a picture is worth a thousand words wasent reffering to trouble shooting.

[MarioSimpson]

Does no one know what is happening here? If you can help please post!!
