tanks but my problem solved

I have downloaded all the required patches yet eveytime I attempt to join a match the game crashed then tells me I disconnected from the server.

Since some days, i got only 40-50 players max connected, some servers disapeared.
I reinstalled gamespy patcher, didn't work.

Any ideas ?

there was a move of master and game server to a different ip because the original server is currently down

new ip is 94.23.196.155

in order to use the master on this ip, you need to manually adjust the hosts file (if you did so before), changing line

109.71.69.254 master.gamespy.com

to

94.23.196.155 master.gamespy.com

hosts patcher tool should be able to fix this for you, depending on how soon you try it (due to dns caching)

if you've used patched .exe files from the first post of this thread or patch from SiMPLE website, the change should be automatic (when the dns change propagates)

sorry for the inconvenience, i can't currently solve this issue in a different way
