cannot connect to the server (12029)

[racingcarz]

I just purchased TM2 downloaded and installed and can't connect to it online. I've followed the help guides in the forum for setting hosts file. I'm not running any hardware or software firewalls. I can ping the game servers without a problem. I can play any other online game problem fine.

I emailed support.maniaplanet.en@gamesplanet.com for tech support and they told me to email support@nadeo.com so I emailed support@nadeo.com and they told me to email support.maniaplanet.en@gamesplanet.com for tech support.

4 days later I still can't connect

Have you try to make this ?

Check your host file in windows (You can find his location here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosts_file)

Then put this file in editable mode (right click on this file => uncheck the hut read-only).
You need to remove these ligns (if it appears)

Code: Select all

127.0.0.1 mp02.maniaplanet.com
127.0.0.1 mp01.maniaplanet.com
127.0.0.1 mp03.maniaplanet.com
127.0.0.1 game.maniaplanet.com

You save your new files and recheck the hut read-only.


Now try to connect to ManiaPlanet.
