Re: can't multiplay or view replay?

I've had N3 go buggy on me a few times, where some action drops me back to the desktop. Re-installing the game and the latest patch has fixed it for me. Back up any mods/cars you have before the re-install. Jim "Matt P" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I've never raced N3 online - I thought I'd have a fiddle about in the multiplayer menu to see what I needed to do but every time I click on the multiplayer option I get booted back to the desktop. This also seems to happen when I click on replay - kicks me straight back to the desktop and shuts down the game. Weird! I haven't played the game that much so I can't remember if it ever worked before but I think it did. I haven't changed anything recently, I've been painting a few cars but that's all I've modified. I have the game patched to 1.2.0.4. Does anyone have a clue what's going on???? I really wanted to do a bit of N3 online. :(

I had the same problem also after I added some custom graphics to the layout file and deleted some files in the layout directory. So I think you also miss some files in your layout directory. I was lucky to recover the necessary files but you probably are not so lucky. Therefore try a fresh install and patch. Hope to see you online soon. Pascal Dukers. WON-ID: [*JMB*]
