I'm running FDS 1.037 and it restarts every time someone tries to join, they then get a Connection Interrupted message. I also can't see it on Gamespy but a friend can. Any ideas?

This happens to me sometimes, and I still can't figure out what causes it

You cannot see your LAN server in the serverlist from gamespy, its
a known 'bug'. You have to directconnect to your server LAN IP to
join it by for example running game.exe like this:
startmenu->run-> C:\Westwood\Renegade\game.exe +connect 192.168.0.2:4848 +netplayername "MyNick" +password "asdf"
If you host the FDS on the same pc as you want to run your game
from, this is not possible unless you use two user-accounts.
The game has to be started BEFORE the FDS launched or it will not
startup.
Windows user account1: Run the fds, then change user.
Winders user account2: Run the game, join the server.
(not sure if this works but worth a try possibly)

Turns out it has something to do with the FDSGSAPatch to get rid of the CD Authentication. Does anyone have a solution for it other than that patch. I tried Core Patch 2 and it didn't help.

You can also first launch the game then minimize to Windows ,then launch the FDS. Best way is to run it from a other box unless your in possesion of a Qaud core or something
