Need help testing Webroot fix for SOWWL multiplayer.

Post by Jean Lafitte »

Webroot seems to have fixed the lag issue, but, I haven't tested the fix in MP.

I've never played MP in any NSD games, but, I'd like to play SOWWL MP in the future.

What's the best way for me to test whether this Webroot fix is compatible with MP?

Thanks.

Hey Jean Lafitte

I have Webroot on my computer, how do I get the Webroot fix or is it an automatic update ?

Thanks

Jean, the KS group plays several times a week in the evenings EU time, usually around 20:00 BST. There's a link to our forums in my sig. We play Couriers and HITS, BTW.

Contact Webroot tech support. They will analyze the situation and fix it. The fix works with single player, but, it needs testing with Multi player.

Sounds great.

But for purposes of testing the Webroot fix for Multi player, how do you suggest I proceed?

Post what time zone you are in and when your time you have availability. There are people from Australia to California so someone should be able to meet up for a quick test.

Not sure (power lobby service could be down when you tried), the only mode to check it is try with webroot activate first, and after retry to create the account with webroot stopped
