Aright, so I downloaded TS onto my laptop. (Tore's free fixed version). I don't know, I'm getting all mixed up...

That's not the point. My problem is, whenever I connect to the XWIS server, nothing happens. I'm in the lobby, all by myself. On the left, it has several lines that say something like "failed to connect," etc.. Although, I'm still in the lobby by myself. After about a minute or so, a message pops up. "You have been disconnected from the server."

What am I doing wrong? I'd like to be able to just go online and play with a friend of mine. I'd rather not have to sit in a lobby by myself, and get kicked every minute or so...

all you should have to do is type a name and password. Most of the time you'll end up in that lonesome lobby from a bad name/password combo. Most likely someone already has the screen name your trying to use. Try different names. But keep in mind that if your game "tore's free version" is different from everyone elses you wont be able to join or host unles everyone else has the same version you want to play with

Hmm. I didn't know I would have to sign up with them. I'll do that.

Cranium; it's what EA released, but was edited a few days ago I think... Tore was the one who posted it, and I saw somewhere that he was the one who made it... However, I also saw that it came from two other fan sites. IDK. I'm having a major blonde moment. My friend downloaded the same one, so I wanted to play with him. As said... I'll go sign up for XWIS and see where it goes from there.

Correct.

By entering a nickname that hasn't already been used, you are automatically "signed up." So that's not the problem...

just keep trying different names and password until you come across one that works.

The one I entered is mine, no one else took it.

If someone had taken it, a message would have popped up saying "incorrect password" or something along those lines.

I checked it up on the XWIS site.

ah, so you already have a registered nick then? Was that nick registered under a serial number? you'll probably have to choose a different name if thats the case.

*facepalm*

I'm sorry for this waste Cranium. My nick was already taken. I made a new one, and I was able to join. There are currently 15 people online.

Oh I will. This will be my first time playing a CnC game online for the PC.
