Rhinox Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Yesterday, at OP "Summer Rain", it was trully disaster! Hours and hours trying to connect to "master server", and nothing! Really ED, this system with "master server" as single critical point sux hard. I dream of the old days, when there was no "master server", and I could play even without internet. Despite of starforce running in ring0, the game was MUCH more stable, than now...

Wrecking Crew Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 The Hollo Pointe server has had Can't Connect To Master also -- several times this week. WC Visit the Hollo Pointe DCS World server -- an open server with a variety of COOP & H2H missions including Combined Arms. All released missions are available for free download, modification and public hosting, from my Wrecking Crew Projects site.
SVK_Fox Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Same problem here....for what we are spending money ???????:mad:
ZlinMan Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Hope TFC / ED will think about their MasterServer idea and put back true -offline- LAN gameplay - maybe limited to a number of connected clients (SPORADIC checks for more than 8 clients?) Waiting for the return of: -TLP- -True LAN Play- Multiplayer without permanent internet connection to ED master-server. Plane wishlist: Antonov - AN-2
Rhinox Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 This (off-line LAN gameplay) was requested many times by users, and denied by ED. Apparently they like the idea of having everything under their control. Well, everything except for (quite frequently) their own master-server...
NeilWillis Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 The problem is, it is both intermittent, and affects just one or two of a group trying to connect. I don't know if it is down to mods, but when I disable them all, I can connect when with them running I can't. I suspect there is a bug within one, or two, and that it isn't happening for everyone either because they don't use the mod, or because the mod doesn't always cause an issue. I could be utterly wrong, but on the two occasions it has happened to me, after disabling them, I connected right away. Coincidence, perhaps, but I suspect there may be a pattern here?
Joe Kurr Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 This weekend we had a LAN setup with one host and five clients, connected to the internet via one wifi range extender acting as a router. Over the weekend, the internet connection was lost several times, which caused some (but not all) of our client systems to be kicked out of the game with a message "Unable to connect to master server". Quite frustrating if you're doing a live formation flight with a crowd of 30+ people watching... Please ED, dump the master server, and give us back the ability to play over LAN without internet!

Random Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 I may have discovered the problem.... Check your system time is correct TO THE SECOND. I had to reset my bios by removing the battery and manually set system time to within 30 seconds of correct. Suddenly unable to connect to master. Updated to correct time and its fixed.
Rhinox Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 I do not think that is a problem. Every Windows comes with "Windows Time" service started per default (unless you deactivated it). So it does not matter what time you have in bios, sooner or later it gets corrected by ntp-client. You could get maybe problem only if you shift local time during communication with master-server. BTW, bios-time is as "exact" as some cheap chinese digital-watch you can buy on streets: it can get deviation of +/- 1min per day. Moreover, we do not live in the same time-zone, and we do not have to have time corresponding to the time-zone you are in (all my comps use UTC-time despite of being in CET (UTC+1)...
phr33dumb Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 I have also been getting the connect to master issue. Also in the module manager, it keeps saying invalid username/password. I am using the same username and password as the DCS website. I have no anti-virus, I have disabled windows firewall and the router's firewall, I have go so far as to format my pc this morning (ON NEW YEARS DAY), And still no luck. Does anyone have any other suggestions, cause the ED support person who got back to me after I logged a ticket responded with, check the forums and google it. Please, any suggestions are welcome!
