Smeagollum, I don't claim to know the slightest but about computers, but the problem may be that AVG "thinks" GCCG is a malware (meaning, a software that can cause damage to your computer and the data stored within), because it opens a connection between your computer and other people's computers, when you log in to play a game with them. Because AVG has moved the LotR client to the infected files vault, you can't login, since it's from that file that the info for your login is taken. Try restoring the file (or re-installing it, but if you decide to do so, first go into your .gccg folder, stored in your driver, and copy the "Password" files so, if something goes wrong, you can restore your account) and trying again, and if AVG complains, tell it to shut up and sit down.

GCCG is not a virus. Period. However, some antivirus programs use heuristics to try to guess at what programs might be viruses. When they get it wrong, it's called a "false positive," and it is quite common.

Anyhow, GCCG is not down. Make sure you have the latest update.

Did! And still status offline.

I have 2 maps with gccg: The one which was working till this morning with:

@echo off
set HOME=C:
set USER=Windows
set CLIENT=.\ccg_client.exe
if exist .\home set HOME=.\home
if exist module_windows32\ccg_client.exe set CLIENT=module_windows32\ccg_client.exe
start %CLIENT% --user %USER% --full %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 --server 46.243.8.121 Lotr.xml


The last is the sentence you send last sunday!

And one map with gccg installed this morning where i put in the same sentence. Then i runned the batchfile and i got the message about the virus. So I went back to my other map still same error about working offline. So I installed gccg again in the other map, because of the virus error my client in that map was deleted. again I run the program and again i get same virus detection. So I decided not to guarantine it. I get into gccg and get the message: Working offline.

So I have 2 maps with both the same text in the batchfile both giving the same mesaage about working offline. One map contains a client which gives me a virus detection and the other map with a client which does not. Both has been updated with update everything in the mean time.

If I start up any of the batches iget into gccg and this is what I see:

Connecting to 46.243.8.121 port 29120
connection failed
working offline


Dont think it's my computer. As mentioned yesterday I saw somebody (Brian) getting banned from the server while you Kralik were not there, so maybe the server kicks people out from itself?

Or something is wrong with the port.

remove this bit, as it was only temporary for the time:

--server 46.243.8.121

No, the server is not sentient and does not ban people on its own.

I think, I have same problem as Smeagollum.

But, my gccg client cant connect to server both with and without "--server 46.243.8.121".

Is there something else I should check/change?
