Did the thought that it might be your system instead of the program cross your mind? IF WinVROC indeed was such a piece of crap like you claim it to be wouldn't there be more complaints in here?

My experience with WinVROC has been excellent - compared with the software gaming companies include with their products for multiplayer it seems a professional job to me. On the contrary I applaud the efforts that have been put into WinVROC. There is an ini file you may need (vroc.ini) - I don't know if this may be your problem. Try the links via the help in WinVROC.

Hmmmm, sorry, but I have to disagree strongly, in my experience, Win VROC has always works flawlessly, and is a credit to the people who have spent many hours getting it to work as well as it does. I would think you may not have all the latest patches or other necessary files for WinVROC or GPL? Have you checked out the various FAQ's on the use of WinVROC? 8-) *Peter* - http://www.cix.co.uk/~peterpc/home.html

Mine was just the opposite. I could never get SpyBoy to work, but WinVROC works fine.

In the words of Amarillo Slim, "Winners talk, losers walk". Nobody else has a beef with WinVROC and use the hell out of it. Talk is cheap, so if you're such a hot-rod code jockey, then write something better. I understand there's a GPaL revival project afoot. You'd be appreciated there, I am certain...

I thought that WinVROC was Spyboy, it just changed it's name with version 2 or something. Sounds like a problem with your setup mate. Steve.

It's the same olld story. There will always be kooks who think they are geeks. These people take great pleasure in bashing the efforts of others without having actually contributed anything of worth themselves. Hey buddy. Next time someone tries to feed you a free lunch, maybe they will pass the sauce if you ask reasonably, rather than bite his hand!
