MULTIPLAYER BUGS ~ VERSION 2

[lightdarkness]

All bugs for the latest version of Multiplayer are to go here. Post your bug, and if it is indeed a bug, one of the mods will edit it into this post. The bug will turn Green when it is fixed.

-------------------------------------
Current Bugs:

1) Random disconnects (shows "waiting for player X") when the multiplayer server becomes very busy.
2) After inactivity disconnect (3 mins), the multiplayer login and lobby/exit show up and overlap.

3) Opening a PM window, not typing anything and pressing OK results in the screen remaining dim (disabled mode)

Just once, after playing a few songs in multiplayer and then exiting multi, multiplayer didn't refresh. This was not re-creatable. At the same time, stats were not refreshing for single player, but that's not a problem with multiplayer.

[AllForThis]

I can't even get my multiplayer to connect. I just sits there with connecting.. over the lobby/exit choices.

[MonkeyFoo]

Quick fixable: The recent multiplayer scores table is in a window that doesn't quite fit it. Not exactly a bug with multiplayer itself, or necessarily a bug, but it bugs me, and that's what counts.

[edit] should I be posting these as new threads, rather than adding them to the sticky? Sorry/Oops.

[YeahIRock]

Why cant we change the arrows way? I mean, I usually play with arrows coming down and in multi they are going up so I'm unable to play like this... Could you fix that or something?

It is only constricted slightly if you are running 800x600. That really is an old resolution, I would recomend using 1024x768. We really can't shirnk it down any more.

[xpatthebakerx]

it wont load, it says its connecting but thats it, im using msn, could that have anything to do with it?

[CyanoticXtC]

The only thing that i've noticed.. is when you and your oppenents game is about to load, right when you click the song, you are redirected to the FBI website...

So far happened twice out of 6 games or so.

[Username314]

I had the same problem as CyanoticXtC. Only this time it's when both of us have loaded -my opponent was a dial-up so it took some time waiting for him. When he did finish loading an error appeared sayiny something about an authentic error (??) and in a spilt second I was redirected to the FBI site: http://www.fbi.gov/

Not really a bug, and it may have been discussed elsewhere, but I noticed that the multiplayer button doesn't have a clickable background - it's just the logo and text. Whilst they're a bit hard to miss when you're clicking, I reckon a clickable background could be a bit more workable.

[Darkaldar]

With the new skins, a few people and myself occasionaly have noticed that sometimes in the lobby, instead of saying who's chatting, it'll say "UNDEFINED:" for whomever. It's easily fixed by refreshing the page, and getting back into mp, but it's still a nuicance.

[emccky]

reverse not there

[lightdarkness]

Emccky: We know you want reverse, you've only said it 100 times. As said on the main page, reverse won't be implimented until all other bugs are sorted out.

I was playing multiplayer when suddenly i was kicked out of the game in the middle of a song. After this happened i tryed to get back in but it said that my user name was already taken. now i cant get back into multiplayer because i am soposedly still on or something

[Magniris]

For some reason I get kicked out in the middle of the game, but the arrows keep showing up and I have no idea that I've been kicked. I finish a song, and show up with 21 perfects or something, and no number in the other timing values. It might be a lag problem on my side, but I don't know, unless it happens to other people.

[DJ_Elmo]

yea i cant connect either

[Keiseth]

*sigh* This has likely been said, yet I cannot find it.

I'm runnin' firefox, and in multiplayer, it draws two FFRs ontop of each other; I can see the other player's combo drawn over mine, making it really hard to see. All in all, it looks like I'm playing two singleplayers in the same exact spot. I'd imagine it is supposed to have two, and one far to the side?

Or perhaps it is supposed to be drawn over itself...

[Synthlight]

Keiseth,

First things first.. Do you know how to clear your cache in Firefox?

If so do it, check and see if this fixes it. If it doesn't, we will move onto the next step.

Cheers,

Synthlight

[Keiseth]

Eep, sorry to be a bother.

I've tried clearing the cache; for good measure, I used clear all, and got rid of all cookies, saved passwords, the cache itself, history..

That being said, I *should* just try to use Internet Explorer, though I have to update Flash on that before it'll work.

I tried to grab a snap-shot while I tested it in a multi game. It is pretty hard to play "Secret Zombie Room" while attempting to win and hitting the print screen key. Hah.

There it is, the best screenshot I could get.

Aye, the exact same problem happened with me
