Nope UAC disabled. Also I looked up my router and it indeed does support uPnP.

That's strange...
Also I looked up my router and it indeed does support uPnP.
That's even more strange.
Maybe it's UPNP feature is disabled now? Can you send me an internal ip of your router? Maybe PM if you don't want to post it to forum...

That's great stuff iL. Awesome job! Hopefully this can be integrated into the combat client.

I lost the password to my router a year ago when I formated and forgot to backup my saved passwords in firefox so I cannot check if it is enabled or not. 192.168.0.1

One thing to check would be to see if someone else disables uPNP and gets the same problem I am getting or not.

Remember that UPnP wont punch holes through the built in Winblowz firewall or any Antivirus firewalls (many come with one by default)
Dk At hall is cause I started with temple at start and didn't need the castle . Not a hack .  I wouldn't bother editing a ss btw

^---- Dellam doesnt hack!  See, even by his own admission, no hack!!  LMFAO.

I deleted the old War2PLoader and re-upgraded it when it was extracted from the file and now it shows 1.0.0.2 and is working with no color problems and no big delay anymore but the hosting doesn't work.

Hm, you started it, it requested update from the site?
I don't see your attempts to start it ever...
Either you didn't start it or your firewall blocked it's connection to the world or any internal error occured...
I'll add the messagebox for possible connection problems to new version...

Remember that UPnP wont punch holes through the built in Winblowz firewall or any Antivirus firewalls (many come with one by default)
Yes, i don't touch any firewalls.
But i tried it with internal windows firewall, it requested me to allow several outgoing connections for this program, so you should get it before starting the game. I'll check that for the firewalls rejecting packets by default.

I deleted the old War2PLoader and re-upgraded it when it was extracted from the file and now it shows 1.0.0.2 and is working with no color problems and no big delay anymore but the hosting doesn't work.
Hm, you just deleted current 1.0.0.1 from combat, unpacked it again there, started, got the update dialog, accepted and got 1.0.0.2, right?
And how did you do before? Unpacked 1.0.0.1 from the archive, started, then updated, retruned back to 1.0.0.1 from archive to make video and then you had problem with update it again?
I wonder how it works for you...

I also didn't change anything with palette between versions, so i wonder how that problem appeared for you...

Your router 19.268.0.1 is not listed as existing UPNP device (that means UPNP is eighter disabled or not supported), that's why this loader definitely will not help you to resolve your port forwarding problems, but i appreciate your help with autoupdate mechanism. Loader could have serious problems with it, i hope to resolve it with your help.

You should reset and then reconfigure your router if you want to resolve your hosting problems and lost the password.

Did you start War2PLoader.exe? You should start war2 using it. Then it checks itself and then it starts war2...
Maybe some problems with connection caused if it didn't get an update...

I think my problem was caused by the auto updater. First time I downloaded it and ran it, it asked me to upgrade and I did but the version stayed at 1.0.0.1 and had color problems. Then I deleted it, extracted files again, and it asked me to update again and I did and it updated to 1.0.0.2 and works with no color problems. Maybe the problem was with the older version.
