Online game trouble
On a game I was able to play, now when I go to click on items on game, nothing happens. I can click to get to game, but during game, nothing happens when I use the keypad.
Hi rcjbaum,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Could you provide some more insight? Such as...
1.) What browser are you using? What version of the browser?
2.) What's the URL of the site you're visiting, what's the game on that site?
3.) Were there any web-based plugins or add-ons that you were required to run/download in order to play this game?
You indicated that it worked, previously, but currently does not work. What's changed on your system between then and now? Did you run any software updates, change any settings, download or delete anything recently?

I removed some plugins and i have trouble with online games now
i don't know which add on or plug in is causing problem
You need to post a link to the online game site that isn't working so someone can figure out what (plugin?) the site needs to work. Some popular plugins are listed here: [[Popular plugins]]. From your list of plugins, It looks like you already have Java plug-in 1.6.0_23 and 4.0.51204.0 (Silverlight) installed.
You also need to tell us what happens when you visit the site. (Do you see an error message? Does Firefox crash or hang?) -

Ok, I have 2 computers that I'm splitting the internet connection to wired and have the wireless for my game systems (which I am not even using atm). The issue that I'm having is I play online games where latency can cause trouble. When I first start up WoW I have like 100ms latency. It slowly climbs to an unplayable 1800ms latency. Thing is, it's not consistent, meaning it happens in spikes like every minute or so. When I'm connected to just the modem I've got a cool 75ms latency that spikes to maybe 250ms latency during primetime. I upgraded the firmware on the router and that didn't do anything. Any help?
http://www.pctools.com/mirror/sdasetup.exe Use that link run an intelliscan of your computer after getting the initial updates. The problems you are describing sound to me like your router is fine, but that you may have some malware that is probably getting past your current security. If you do find things infected on your computer I would recommend registering that and then removing whatever it is you are using as it currently is probably not doing the job when it comes to protecting your PC.

WRT54G v 8.00.2 Constant Disconnects - Online Games
Yesterday, I bought the Linksys WRT54G v.8 to replace my aging Netgear wireless router. My kids both play World of Warcraft and have complained for months about constantly getting disconnected. We all thought it was the Netgear router. Well, if anything, it's worse now. I've tried several times to explain the situation to Linksys Tech Support via Live Chat but I get disconnected. I even spoke to my cable company (Time Warner RoadRunner) and they wanted me to turn off all firewalls (including the one on the router). I've turned off all the software firewalls but not the hardware one on the WRT54G. I've been doing some research, trolling around on the web trying to find a similar situation. Basically, about every 20-30 minnutes, our internet connection resets and it takes a minute or two to reconnect. Devastating in an online game. I turned on QoS (something I didn't have on the NetGear) and selected the Optimize for Gaming and entered the ports for the various online games. But I am still experiencing disconnects. I even changed the MTU from 1500 to 1400 but I eventually put it back to 1500 because it messed with my webserver. I am not a network engineer by any means but I and my children are extremely frustrated with this whole situation. Any suggestions? Any utilties I can run on my LAN to sniff out what is resetting my connection? Thanks in advance, Jon
All this trouble I went through and I was right to begin with. The cable modem went bad. It had been going bad for months! I swapped it out the day after Labor Day and my Internet connection was faster than ever and completely reliable.
Too bad no one responded to my original post though. Kind of disappointing. -
How to create a turn-based multiplayer online game?
Hello. This is my first time here. I am familiar with programming games and have been doing so for 20 years. However, I'm completely new to using Java to do so. In the past, I wrote games in BASIC, Blitz, and C++ using DirectX. Being familiar with C/C++, the Java language syntax is not a hurdle for me.
I've never created a networking game, but I feel that if I tried to create one using one of the programming languages I already know that I would succeed at doing so. (I'm just trying to show that I feel confident in programming with the languages that i know)
The dilemma here is that someone else would like me to program a turn'based multiplayer game for them in Java.
I've downloaded the NetBeans 4.1 IDE and uncovered a lot of terms and such that I'm unfamiliar with.
What I'm looking for from you guys is an overview of what I need to do to achieve my ultimate goal of creating this online game.
As a reference, I need to create a game very similar to this one:
http://www.tacticsarena.com/play/
Click on the "Launch Game: Tactics Arena Online" link to see the game.
Create a new account to play (accounts are free).
Upon starting the NetBeans IDE, I found that I could create several different types of projects. I guess first of all, I need to know what kind of project is best suited to make this type of game.
To name a few, I have to select from:
Java Application
Java Class Library (is this an Applet?)
Web Application
Enterprise Application
EJB Module
Then I guess I would like to know if any of the above projects would be used to make the clients interface or the server side software or both? Or do I need to use some other kind of software/programming language/etc. to create the server side? (As a side note, typically what kind of Operating system would the server be using? I ask because I may set one up myself for testing purposes.)
Somewhere I came upon the term 'Servlet'. Is this some kind of Java server application? Do I need/want to be using this?
As you can see, I'm very lost at where to begin. I'm not at all unfamiliar with programming. I'm just unfamiliar with Java.
WolRonHi WolRon
I am in the process of learning Java myself and from what i have read, you have a long road ahead of you!
To start this Project the following will be essential for you to know:
Applets - if this is going to an online game
Multiple Threads - for the Server side
Swing - for the GUI on both sides
AWT - help work with the user input (mouseListeners, buttonListeners, etc)
And knowledge of a database.
those are the most obvious things that you will need to understand.
I strongly suggest buying a Java book from which you need to start at the beginning. Although the concept of OOP is the same through most languages Java has terms - as do all languages- that will be different from the other languages. Starting at the beginning will be beneficial to your Java coding future.
Good luck. -
Open ports on new airport extreme to play online games
hey, i have the new airport extreme and i wanna play online games.
how do i open ports with the utily that came on disk.
i have no clue how to configure it.
i tried in bridge mode, but than the airport starts flashing amber and other users in house wanna surf on the net aswel.
kind regardsAirport Utility -> Manual setup (Cmd+L)
Internet -> NAT
Enable a default host
Then in Internet -> DHCP
permanently assign the default host IP to the machine you're going to play the games on.
This is what other routers call the "DMZ" address. Be sure to run a firewall on that machine! -
What prog language/tools for a browser based online game ?
I am going to start a project for an multiplayer online game community soon, and need some advice.
The community will consist of the game itself, forum, wiki and irc-chat and use f/oss software to keep the running costs as low as possible.
The game is the heart of the community and will be a turn-based wargame with roleplaying and strategy options, mainly text based with some graphics and animations and played through a browser. (These kind of games are often referred to as Multiplayer Online RolePlaying game MORPG )
The SQL player database will have up to approx 100k player records, each of which will have many fields.
The game code will run 24/7 on a linux server (distro not chosen yet) and needs to fulfill these requirements :
easily maintanable by multiple programmers
programmers should be able to develop/test parts of the code on their own pc's using linux or windows.
good, fast access to the player DB
combat calculations will be mathemically complicated, and need to be fast
User interaction will be through a web-page
A way to keep users from accessing the game code directly to avoid computer players. (it's possible this has more to do with the code structure than with the language)
Most games of this type seem to use a php/ C combination, but that appears to have several drawbacks.
Specifically code maintainability and distinguishing between humans and bots/computer players are a problem for these games.
What environment do you think would fulfill these requirements ?
P.S. if this is to theoretical, check out these links to see some similar games :

Dear all readers of this writing,
I truly want to get help or advice of solving my blue screen problem called "bad_pool_caller".
Even, I nicknamed myself as "bad_pool_caller of death" because this caused several painful experiences while playing online games. Furthermore I am just a beginner about computers, so even this small problem makes me crazy.
Let me introduce my problem and what I have done to solve this problem.
-Symptoms
this bad_pool_caller problem does not occur in offline. I found that none of problem occurs even while playing single player games over 7 hours like Far cry3 or bioshock infinite.
Only while accessing Internet, this problem occurs.
Especially, while playing any youtube videos
even also other sort of video players, almost within 20 seconds, my computer shut down by bad_pool_caller error.
and video's buffering is extremely slow.
This is not just a Internet access problem I think, because I have another my own laptop and when I play youtube video of my laptop, it plays well.
Also, when I enter a posting linked with bgm files, and try to install and play online games like starcraft 2, same things happens.
(Although the frequency is lower than that of bad poor caller, Driver IRQL Less or equal error
pops up while playing online games.
During surfing Internet without these, bad pool caller error does not happen, so I think these three things(youtube video, listening bgm, online games) have much to do with my error.
-What I have done
I tried to solve by myself after I found this link.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/e5e06b4e-6ed0-4eab-80ab-56c334f924be/windows-8-blue-screen-of-death-bsod-badpoolcaller?forum=w8itproperf
I was very happy when I found this because the situation of the writer in upper link is almost same with that of mine.
As the answer written, I format my C drive(Toshiba) and install windows 8.1 full version completely and upgraded graphic drive(GTX 760) and upgraded latetest windows 8.1 beta version upgrade of Wireless lan card drive(Netgear N900).
However, you know, still this error occurs...
-Guess the cause
I know that most bad pool caller problem arise from Hard drive and memory corruption.
But, my desktop PC is bought only a month ago and I bought quite a good SSD and HDD and Ram for playing high quality games.
So I don't think the main cause is my SSD or HDD. My graphic card is also a new one.
I suspect the cause is my network adapter, wireless lan card (USB) because this connects Internet access between my desktop PC and Louter.
I am living in University dorm and using louter using with other students together.
For getting Internet access of my desktop PC, I've bought wireless lan card (Netgear N 900) and I think this lan card causes problem such as windows 8.1 compatible
But I fully upgraded and updated lan card driver and reinstalled several times and this N900 is not bad lan card so I don't determine this is the real cause.
Here is link of my minidump record files.
https://onedrive.live.com/#cid=CF99CE81DCA9027A&id=CF99CE81DCA9027A%21943
(most error is about bad_pool_caller, but one is about Driver_IRQL_Less or Equal)
and sorry for my poor English writing skills because I am international student arrived US only 3 months. If you have some things that cannot understand of my writing, just ask me again.
Thanks for your help in advance.2: kd> lmvm NETIO

Hi,
As you said,you have updated your NIC driver.
Did this issue happend when you used the wired LAN?
I think this is related to wireless driver.
I suggest that you try other wirless card to test this issue.

None of my online games work on my laptop. I updated Adobe Flash player but it doesn't seem to make a difference. I didn't see anything wrong with the old version and now there is definitely something wrong with this new version. Everything worked just fine last night and now none of it works. Why is that?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I was forced to update to the new version of firefox.ive never had any problems with ap[ple products in the past... this is a first and a stupid problem if you ask me

IPad 4 online games not working properly
ever since the release of the new update, I am having difficulty connecting some game apps online. These includes Conquer online (cannot connect to game server), Injustice (online game wins not credited) and Deer Hunter 2014 (automatic updating not functioning). The issues started even before I install the update but after downloading the update. It seems like the download of data is good (CO downloads patches normally, i can manually download map updates for DH, Injustice can download the data on which I will battle) but there seems to be a problem uploading data as seen after playing Injustice where my wins are not credited.By the way, my connection is okay so the issue is really related to the update and the bug it brings. Even tried uninstalling and reinstalling apps and updating my OS to the newest to solve problem but it persists. Contacted game support groups and they are saying that app is working normally for others.
Hello geraldluigibryan,
You may consider contacting the developers of the affected games for further assistance, as you've exhausted all other potential troubleshooting steps detailed in the article below.

when I try to purchase items on my online game I can no longer buy them.For some reason firefox stops the payment options from showing.I choose what I want to buy but when it comes to paying for it thats when nothing happens.No payment option is offered.All that is there is what I have picked to buy.Before it would offer payment options when I had picked what I wanted to purchase but this no longer happens and no payment options are given.It is left like that until I stop and just leave.I would like to know why it now does this?
I got offered firefox beta and installed it.That is when it started doing this.I have cleared my cache,browser and history then restarted firefox a number of times now and still the problem persists.Can you please assist me please to somehow put it right back to the way it was before.Thank you for your time.You can try to (re)install the current Firefox 17.0.1 release if it isn't working with the current Firefox 18 beta

Flash Player having problems while playing online games on OS X Mavericks
i use mbp mid 2010 with os x mavericks 10.9.2 and while playing online games, it usually happens some freezes and delays. when i play same game with same browser on windows 7(bootcamp) there is no freeze and delay. i have made lots of search about this and made some optimizations on flash player settings but the problem continues. i use both chrome and firefox on both mavericks and win7 (bootcamp) but having the same problems on mavericks every time. the game is very slow with freeze and delays on mavericks. will adobe make a real effective upgrade about flash player for macs.
Hmmm... Win 7 will run faster than Mavericks with 8Gb. Even my Vm of 7 runs faster once I get it past all the startup processes.
It may or may not be a connectivity problen since Windows uses a different protocol, even though it's on the same hardware. Usually though, what affects OS X will affect BootCamp too.

Pleas,my litlle sister would like play online girl games,when the game starts need last flash player(only some pages,not for all)
.but i have last flash player(13) and chrome have built-in.who is problem? is the flash player 13 not compatibly with this game? thanksThe Flash Player in Chrome is "PepperFlash". It's a PPAPI version of the Plug-in from here.
That probably doesn't tell you anything, but here's why it matters.
MOST online games are designed for NPAPI Flash.
Chrome's player doesn't work too well with them.
Here's what to do:
Download the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers)
Install it.
Open Chrome and type "chrome://plugins" in the address bar.
That'll take you to the Plug-ins page.
Click "Details" at the top right to expand all Plug-in info.
Scroll to Adobe Flash Player.
You'll see TWO FlashPlayer Plug-ins listed now. One's PepperFlash, the other is the one you just installed.
Disable the PepperFlash and close Chrome. When you relaunch it, it'll "fall back" on the standard (NPAPI) plug-in, and games should work with it. -
