Right, getting on my teats now....

Can get in to Arcade online, have lots of twits joining. No AI but that's OK if your mates get in first.

Can start a direct IP session in semi-pro. Set it up nicely.
No one can join, everyone just gets prompted for usernames and passwords, eventually kicing back to front screen. Happens on multiple hosts.

Not happy, anybody any clues?

Ta.

If you are hosting and have a firewall in place you have to open ports or no-one can join you.

You need to open :-

TCP port 34347
UDP port 34297
UDP port 34298

If that doesn't solve it, on Simbin's official forum they mention their server hosts had an outage and they are using backup servers. There have been problems copying over the usernames database and updating the backup. Maybe they need to re-register their same username/password for each type - Arcade, Semi-Pro and Simulation. Then they will all work.

I only do Simulation so haven't had this happen to me.
