I can't seem to even start a single player game. Every time I do, I get this:



It shouldn't matter since I'm playing a local game, but I forwarded the ports and I'm still encountering the issue.

I'm running Vista Ultimate 64 bit, if that matters.

Help! Sad

We will fix this in the next version but if you want to get it working right away follow these instructions:

On Windows (NT, 2000, XP, Vista, 7 or other):

Open the file
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
in a text editor

You will have a line reading
::1 localhost

Change that to
127.0.0.1 localhost

If you don't have a line with "localhost" just add the line above.
