Hey fellas

I got banned. I'm pretty sure it's because of the IP range I'm using, as usual
Can you lift that ban ?

Thanks

[jawfin]

Yup done.
If you look at your current IP on https://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/_INSERT_IP_HERE
you'll see it's been blacklisted by some amateur naughty person who has poisoned the well for whomever gets it next. What a nub!

[Sifodias]

Thanks dude

[Sifodias]

I'm stuck on "Awaiting gamestate..." very often
Any ideas ?

[jawfin]

Sounds suspiciously like a clientkick! See what /recon does.

Also, if you are in Japan as your profile says, then you'd be using a proxy, which makes firewalls nervous!

[Sifodias]

Recon doesn't seem to do anything


(ps: I ain't in japan u silly :p)

JKA is a modded Quake 3 engine, so maybe a search of "Awaiting gamestate" may give a clue. A lot of games are Q3 derivatives and considering this issue is at the engine level their solutions should work.

[Sifodias]

Well, I can't find anything about it
By the way, this happens only on KR's server so I bet it can't be engine's fault
I can't connect I don't know what to do T_T

How are you trying to connect(console, favorites, serverlist)? Does your server list update?

[Sifodias]

I'm trying to connect through the favorites (because I can't see the server in the list). The server list does update

[jawfin]

/connect kr1.knights-reborn.org
or
/connect 192.223.29.244
See how that works for you.

[Sifodias]

I get the same result, for both ...

[Sifodias]

I tried a vpn, and I'm getting some interesting results.
Depending on the country, sometimes it's still stuck on gamestate, and sometimes I get this :



I don't know what the hell is goin on~

ps: I already tried with a clean installation

[jawfin]

VPNs have a habit of getting eaten by the firewall. There may be a redundant anti-DOS firewall rule which dropping some of your packets - I'll fiddle them a bit and see if that is the cause. Actually, I'll just cheat for now, and poke a hole through the firewall for your current IP. If you can get on at least we'll know that was it!

Edit: as your last few forum posts were via a proxy I can't say for sure what your current IP is, so I guessed from the last real one.

[Kirito]

hope u get this sorted out sif! <3

[Sifodias]

Yay I'm banned again ...

[jawfin]

Fixed. Seems there's not a few criminals in your neighbourhood - you keep inheriting IPs which have been blacklisted.

[Sifodias]

hmm that's weird because they are mostly old people
