Has anyone that can access the Fiesta Forum please past a link to this thread to help us that can not go there?

Baalat 12-05-2007 07:36 PM

or post there asking why some of us can't acess the game although others seem to have no problem with it. I'm restarted my computer and modem several times, done system restores. Everything. I'm bored and its driving me crazy.

Hyper 12-05-2007 07:43 PM

It does work.
Just because it won't work for you, doesn't mean the rest of us need to know.

To you and whoever did the title thing, this is for announcements.

rejoices 12-05-2007 07:46 PM

I'm in West Virginia and the only thing I am getting is snow. I have not been able to connect to the game or to outsparks forms. I am also getting that error message that someone posted earlier. Unable to connect to patch server: <urlopenerror (11001,'getaddinfo failed"0> I click cancel and the same message returns. So I don't know what I am suppose to do with no forms to talk to someone about it.

HeroReign 12-05-2007 07:47 PM

yup im geting the same problem, but i CAN log onto game, just not the site, starting to piss me off since i have a siggy shop and im not ganna be able to get back to ppl on the forums =/ i tried in both browsers (FireFox and IE)
Heres the error i get in firefox:
Server not found













Firefox can't find the server at www.outspark.com.








* Check the address for typing errors such as
ww.example.com instead of
www.example.com

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.







W/e i cant figure it out.:(

blin 12-05-2007 07:48 PM

I am on vista and can't find localsetting folder.

Can you make a download link for 75-84 .exe launcher so I can get into the game please?

I am in the US, florida and can't access the outspark.com website either.

I heard sos is also not working.

Woland 12-05-2007 07:50 PM

actually at the moment it doesn't work for many people and there already are several threads about this, so this isn't a one man's issue. altough, I admit that announcements aren't meant for such posts.

but hey, he said "sorry", didn't he?

Gravvi 12-05-2007 07:52 PM

Ok i am from US. And i was playing. IF you were ingame already since last night you should still be on. But i got a buffer overrun(DAMN U SPAMMERS) i get the same issue as eveyrone else. SO only the people who were on less than 12hrs ago can play.

Baalat 12-05-2007 07:57 PM

my folder was under a folder called builds not local settings, but the folders were empty. Try looking for that and see if it helps you. I'm from Orlando, FL as well so maybe its a Florida thing?

Spirit 12-05-2007 07:57 PM

What is a buffer overrun?

Baalat 12-05-2007 07:59 PM

its a pop up window thats says you have had a buffer over run the files are curropt and it kicks you off the game. I get it when I'm in a town and have the normal chat on and can see all the spam.

HeroReign 12-05-2007 08:02 PM

yup lol, so has ANYONE been able to talk to a csr, gm or anyone about this?

ziggy 12-05-2007 08:06 PM

I hope all this is the new patch for December let us hope :)

Yeah, I knew that, but what I meant was what is it? Why does it happen? What causes it?

HeroReign 12-05-2007 08:12 PM

WHY WONT THE SITE WORK:eek:

ziggy 12-05-2007 08:14 PM

This article is about buffer overflows in the general case. For stack-based buffer overflows, see Stack buffer overflow.

In computer security and programming, a buffer overflow, or buffer overrun, is a programming error which may result in a memory access exception and program termination, or in the event of the user being malicious, a possible breach of system security.

A buffer overflow is an anomalous condition where a process attempts to store data beyond the boundaries of a fixed-length buffer. The result is that the extra data overwrites adjacent memory locations. The overwritten data may include other buffers, variables and program flow data and may cause a process to crash or produce incorrect results. They can be triggered by inputs specifically designed to execute malicious code or to make the program operate in an unintended way. As such, buffer overflows cause many software vulnerabilities and form the basis of many exploits. Sufficient bounds checking by either the programmer, the compiler or the runtime can prevent buffer overflows.

Spirit 12-05-2007 08:16 PM

Ummm.... english please? :D
I do not know a whole lot of the computer lingo junk crap words. I know the basics and maybe a little deeper than that. But what you just said was like a doctor telling me all my body parts using their technical terms... you know the ones I cant pronounce.

Illuzion23 12-05-2007 08:17 PM

alexbre 12-05-2007 08:21 PM

HeroReign 12-05-2007 08:21 PM

Re: Buffer overload
« Reply #1 on: October 30, 2007, 05:12:40 PM »

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Check your computer for any malicious programs, a buffer overload is pretty much the result of a Denial of Service (DOS) attack.

Free scans:
www.commandondemand.com
www.trendmicro.com
www.pandasoftware.com/activescan

if all else fails, stick it into safe mode and run an antivirus then.

ummm 12-05-2007 08:22 PM

the spam cuases it it overloads the buffer in your game just filter out normal chat

HeroReign 12-05-2007 08:24 PM

So your saying its My computer causing My problem ?

Baalat 12-05-2007 08:25 PM

the buffer overload, yes technically your computer isn't powerful enough to handle everything being thrown at it at that moment of time.

Not being to log in.... can't be just your comp if others are doing it too.

ziggy 12-05-2007 08:29 PM

A buffer is a designated section of RAM memory set aside for some purpose such as working memory for a program If the system tries to put more data into this memory than it can hold it is a buffer overflow


so..like the gold spam and all else going on will cause this

HeroReign 12-05-2007 08:30 PM

lol, thats nuts, im pi$$ed off now, i have 2 comps, hp laptop and a SLi Elite 1800 II, This shouldnt be happing on that!!!?!??!! lol this is gonna be one im gonna leave on there forums =/

Veidhra 12-05-2007 08:30 PM

Getting mixed responses but I did discover the reason your folders may be empty is because the files I pointed you to, are hidden. So you need to go to folder options and show all files.

Spirit 12-05-2007 08:31 PM

So english version of buffer overlaod is:

Too much crap being sent to your computer, and your computer cannot handle it, so it boots you off the game and you are frustrated.

Got it.

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

HeroReign 12-05-2007 08:32 PM
