[WC3Connect] Can't join

Postby Reichi999 » Wed Oct 24, 2018 4:23 am

Hello,

i have the following problem:
I'm using WC3Connect for 1 day now..
And i often have the problem that i can't join lobbies for some reason and 5-10 minutes later it works again.

- Username is correct
- Patch is 1.30.1

As i said.. first time it kicks me out immediately and then 5 min later i can join.
The people in the lobby see
"Reichi999 joins the game"
"Reichi999 leaves the game" all the time when i try to connect to a lobby via WC3Connect + LAN network..

Any ideas? (Or common bugs/problems and ways to fix it?)
Using Win10.

Thanks :)

Which game did you have this problem with?

I did see a few bots where it kicked you for "invalid session", unfortunately the bot doesn't tell you this yet. But that means that maybe you started another copy of the WC3Connect app and the session held by the first copy isn't valid anymore; so typically restarting the app will fix that problem. In the future, session renewal and better way to notify you about what the problem is, is planned.

But if you have specific lobby name I can check if that is indeed the problem. Because in that case 5-10 minutes later if you didn't restart app it should still not work.

Well thanks for the fast reply.

I restarted both several times. (WC3Connect + WC3)
The Lobbynames were different.

When i wrote this topic it was my own hosted lobby (Reichi99989 or something) and ofc the name didn't changed until i was able to connect 5 min later and change the name.
