Fixed map error crash

JROT

This might fix the map error for some of you..it did for me ...


Hey guys, I have been getting kicked due to the map error since last patch also. I can play from 2-5 minutes then i get the error. I am running a XP64 bit machine. I have uninstalled the game, then reinstalled it after manually cleaning all from registry and killing all game folders. I have had no antivirus running at all and it makes no difference for me. I installed it on a laptop and still had the errors.........
So I take my computers to a friends house..no errors at all. His kids played all night on my machine.
Next, I set up my computer in the DMZ (de-militarized zone) in my router settings. I played for a few hours..no kick !!! I turned off my DMZ and I got map error kick in a few minutes.
DMZ is like bypassing your router and its inbuilt firewall. I haven't figured out wich little filter or setting is doing it though. It would help if someone could tell me what ports and/or other connections crossfire uses...maybe we could just do some port forwarding or triggering?
I hope the DMZ at least lets some of you play..its working for me.
BTW..my router is a netgear 3500L with custom firmware.
