Password for account and Orbz online rank

by Hannah Loesser · in General Game Discussion · 09/23/2004 (2:04 pm) · 6 replies

Sorry this is probably a dopey question but here goes: Do i need a different password than my garagegames account password to enable online ranking in Orbz? When I try to enable online ranking, it says my password is invalid. Could someone please tell me what to do and where to do it? Again I am sorry for probably wasting your time with this dopey question. The answer has probably been staring me in the face.

It could be that you are trying to use a ranked name that is currently being used by a player in the game. If you tried to use Slacker (mine), it would probably tell you the same thing. Your garagegames account doesn't have anything to do with the orbz account - they are two separate systems. Try another name to see what happens.

Keith is correct. Let me know if you have any further troubles.

On my preferred computer I'm not able to get authenticated using the correct password. The computer has never received the announcement about the new map pack. Anyone have any ideas?

It sounds like you might have a firewall blocking traffic from Orbz to the ranking server (which handles "message of the day" and logging on to the rank server).

Orbz uses regular HTTP messages on port 80 for communicating with the rank server. If you make Orbz a trusted application in your firewall software - that should do the trick.
