so you got it on port 10001, and you are connecting to localhost? make sure you got questnet running, lol. make sure both ports are the same, make sure you have a game loaded in questnet. im not trying to make you look stupid, but its that simple. i dont know why else it isnt connecting to your own computer

19 Apr 2004, 16:46for that room error, all you had to do was goto options and make sure the start room was right
glad you got it sorted though

19 Apr 2004, 18:12This solves the problem I was having too. It was the firewall that was preventing me from connecting. It seems so obvious now but I never thought about it. So thank you. (I guess my other mistake was posting on the QuestNet forum instead of here.)
