I have gentool, I'm registered with Revora and can log in the multiplayer online fine. I'm starting Origin as Admin (have also tried running the zero hour shortcut as admin). Yet no matter what I do, everyone's game room is greyed out and unjoinable. I can host, but then I'm greyed out. A buddy tried to join and it says I have a different version, but I have patch 1.04.

Game works fine on GameRanger, but I'm sick of playing on that server and want to go to Revora with GenTool. Just cant figure out how to get the settings correct.

I'm running The Ultimate Collection version on Origin.
I have Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 3.

I don't get an error notice.

I've uninstalled antivirus and firewall, but it hasnt fixed the issue.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

I've read Common Issues & Solutions

 

I've read every thread that is Zero Hour related in the entire Support Archive. All 32 pages of it.

 

When i try to join a room, I get the message "Unable to join. The game is a different version."

 

I'm running the game as Admin.

 

Origin In-Game is disabled.

 

My operating system is XP Service pack 3.

 

I've forwarded port 16000.

 

I have GenTool 7.0 installed.

 

My game connects to everyone fine on GameRanger.

 

 

 

If you need any additional information, I'm encouraging you to ask. I am really sick of GameRanger, and so is the rest of my clan. We all want to move to Revora, but none of us are going to until I can get this resolved.

 

I'll check-in tomorrow after work for a much needed and appreciated response.
