Hi. I originally posted this a couple of days ago in the BFME2 equivalent, though I expect the account works the same in both - I'm trying to sort BFME1 first so have re-posted in a BFME1 thread
I am running WIndows 10 64 bit pro
I uninstalled my BFME1 and downloaded and installed the T3A version and it all works fine on single player (as does BFME2 which I'll try once BFME1 is working) and indeed as did the original games before I uninstalled them to be able to play over the network again.
I created T3A, revora forum and server accounts starting from the official site link when you first run bFME1 and get the T3A online screen with the launch, official site and update buttons
I went to BFME1 and could not log in using either the forum or server account details (tried the server ones having read various threads as some responses seemed to say I should use the server ones?)
I tried changing the password on my account in case that was it, as in the BFME1 online screen it did not appear to be putting in a character when I typed the non alphanumeric in my password - so I changed to a password without one. I then also found both my T3A and revora forum passwords had been changed so I guess my decision to use the same for both (though different for the servers) was good!
Tried again and still "The specified account or sub account name was not found".
I've been through all the threads that appear relevant and can find nothing to assist. I have no special characters in username (DogHouse) or password, which have been accepted as valid.
There is no Gamespy line in my options.ini if that could be it but I cannot find any instructions telling me what the gamespy line should read anyway (even after a forums search).
As per the instructions I have NOT tried to create a new account from the BFME1 network screen to see if that solves the problem, though it was tempting!
Any assistance much appreciated
