Hey,

Everytime I try to log onto a sins MP game that is already being hosted I get the error connection failed rejected by host. I have tried opening my ports for TCP/UDP 6112 under the name Sins of a solar Empire and GameHostPort. None seem to be working and this is under 64 bit vista.

Also, Everytime I log out of the game it creates a dump and brings up the (sins of a solar empire is not responding, closing sign up)

You wouldn't be running Windows Defender would you? I solved that connection issue for another guy earlier (Revenge) and it was his Windows Defender blocking. He didn't have a router (straight to cable modem) and was properly added to the Windows Firewall exception.

As I already posted to my "sticky" thread I'll be posting back exactly how to make Sins work with Windows Defender. Until then disable it when playing.
