Hello Revora, any help appreciated. Whenever I start a custom match, all of the players get to the loading screen. My bar fills to the max, but all of the other players' bars are stuck at 0%. The game starts maybe 10 or 15 seconds afterwards but no commands can be issued. At this point I'm forced to quit out of the game and try again.

 

A few notes about my setup:

  • Using The First Decade version of Zero Hour v1.04
  • Running GenTool version 7.7
  • Was using TFD 1.03, but GenTool complained about a cracked binary, so I reverted to the original generals.exe from TFD 1.02
  • Forwarded a port on the router and set it in the Options menu, verified the setting in options.ini, but there was no effect
  • Operating system is Arch Linux, using Wine 4.15 under Windows XP mode and mostly built-in .dlls (this may be the culprit?)
  • Did not see a CNCOnline_Log.txt file in wine/drive_c/windows/temp or /users/name/AppData and LocalSettings but I might be looking in the wrong place

Also ran the NATNegTest as suggested in the report issues thread (under the same Wine prefix as ZH) and everything looked fine. Here is the output:

Bound to local port 51509

Resolving hostname 'nntest.cnc-online.net'...

NAT negotiation works with your router and connection.
==> You do not have to use port forwarding.

Any suggestions or ideas? If you need any additional information feel free to ask. Thanks a lot, haven't played this game in a long time and would like to get back into it!

Sorry forgot to put that in the OP, fixed it now. I'm running version 1.04 of Zero Hour, but version 1.02 of The First Decade. They are two separate things.
