Pirate Bill Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 So just tried to log in, and it tells me that my "Username/Password does not appear to be valid." Checked the account pane, and my username/password hadn't changed. I re-entered them, and still got the same error message when attempting to log in. Is there a reason for this? Sun spots, perhaps?

ClaytoniousRex Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 The account server was down for a few minutes while we made some upgrades. It's back up now. Are you able to get in now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate Bill Posted April 24, 2006 Author Share Posted April 24, 2006 Nope, still frozen out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaytoniousRex Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Email me your username and password and I'll check the account server. (Remember to send your username and password with correct case sensitivity.) In the meantime, you can try registering a new account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Type98 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 If you upgraded after creating an account under a previous version, the local path for the account information changed. If this is the case, you probably have to re-create your account. That happend under the linux version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmead Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Happened to me days after doing the version upgrade. I just made a new account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurtz Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 My account worked. But I haven't played during this week, only played again yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapps Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I've been having some issues as well. Soon after I updated to 0.9.45, it said my account was not valid so I created a new one. Today, I go on to play and it gives me the same message. This has only happened to me on this version of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClaytoniousRex Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 This is happening in 0.9.45 because the Account Server was upgraded to handle demo and retail accounts side-by-side. It should be cleared up with the new release very soon. Sorry for the trouble in the meantime! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapps Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 Is there something up with the server today? I created a new account but I still get a message that it's not valid. It happened several tries (and several new accounts). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverHead Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 I too find I can't log on to the game anymore - old account or new. I also tried reinstalling the game with no better results. Is anyone able to play? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapps Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Today, I'm not even able to get into the game (or updater). It freezes on the splash screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmead Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 I have created 3 or 4 usernames and none of them work. I too look forward to playing again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaytoniousRex Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 You can update to the 0.9.90 release to fix this issue. The release announcement for 0.9.90 won't be posted for a few more hours, but you can run Update to get it now. Sorry for the inconvenience of this account bug. It was a Mac-specific issue on the 0.9.45 release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrWoood Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 I saw the post and did an update to 0.9.90. Still some serious ZoneAlarm issues I am afraid. If you are a ZoneAlarm user, you have to set the program control back to ticks for the relevant things (I did them all) otherwise there is a crash on initialisation which means I must reset the computer. On initialiasation it stopped doing anything (presumably because of ZoneAlarm creating a prompt that you cannot see because DropTeam is taking over the display. I was able to get the Task Manager on the second head (I don't think I could get the task manager otherwise) but wasn't able to kill the task or the process. After setting the Program Control settings in ZoneAlarm to 'allow' for DropTeam, things worked and was able to init DropTeam, get a list of servers, and briefly log in to server at the end of the game without problems. I then quit to do this post. It is lucky I suspected it was ZoneAlarm causing the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrWoood Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 After the previous post I had a play for a little while before Famite stopped responding. The increased limitation on various units will make things very interesting! :cool: Look forward to playing it more! Better be careful with that Hurricane!
