Can't load my own multiplayer server for testing.

Running the new AVG aren’t you? I had a similar problem when working on SWWT. Once I swapped to Avast, I didn’t have this issue any longer.

Give it a shot. AVG went down the toilet anyways adding bloatware and stuff.

without the 1.1 patch freelancer often has time with server and client being on one and the same machine.

It’s most likely an issue due to IPv6 then.
On Vista you can disable it somehow, fixing the issue, on windows 7 you can not…

You disable IPv6 through the registry. I’ve done it with Win 7 without issue.

The number "0: didn’t work for me in that tutorial. This is the one that worked for me: http://www.home-network-help.com/disable-ipv6.html

thanks Sushi, your version worked
@Bulldog: Already tried that one before it hasn’t worked then

I’m running Windows 7 64 bit. I did both fixes. 0 for the value didn’t work and neither did ffffffff. My IPv6 is unticked and it still shows a mac address for my server when I view it locally. I’m playing Freelancer to login and do testing from a seperate directory. I’m not using the server directory. I tried it using the freelancer.exe in the server directory. Same thing. It gives me a mac address for my server. Anyone have any ideas. This is driving me around the bend.

I assume you restarted after the change?

Of course. Wouldn’t do much good if I didn’t restart and let windows re-read the registry
