I Have gpl v1.2.01 and winvroc v2.1.0.3. I use a USB cable modem 64k. When I run vroc I can enter the chat rooms for VROC & GPL,but vroc will not connect to any servers to list a race list.I cannot host or jion anything. Any help would make me a happy man. Joe.
Sounds like you need the vroc.ini fix. it's only 27 bytes so I've attached it to this message. Simply put it in the WinVROC folder, normally C:\Program Files\VROC\WinVROC I thought the current version of VROC was 2.1.0.0 though, at least thats what the regulars on VROC use. If it doesn't work after the fix, then download the 2.1.0.0 version from http://vroc.net -- Ian P <email invalid due to spammers> "Joe Owens" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:l5p47.10956$[email hidden]... > I Have gpl v1.2.01 and winvroc v2.1.0.3. > I use a USB cable modem 64k. > When I run vroc I can enter the chat rooms for VROC & GPL,but vroc will not > connect to any servers to list a race > list.I cannot host or jion anything. > Any help would make me a happy man. > Joe. > > > begin 666 Vroc.ini ;6U923T-=#0I!9&1R97-S/3(Q-BXW+C$S-BXU ` end

Make sure you have a vroc.ini file in the vroc program directory. It should have the following lines: [VROC] Address=216.7.136.5 Then restart VROC.

Joe, I don't know if this will help but I had the EXACT same thing happen to me. I re-installed everything time and time again, got all the patches nothing helped. What I was told to do by the awesome guys in the VROC chat room was to go to player info and be sure to put a first and last name in. I did that and It all worked fine. hehe I know it seemes to easy but it worked for me. Dave Thirion Mvovr1 "Joe Owens" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:<l5p47.10956$[email hidden]>...
