Planet ring - all tables full

[segadreamcaster]

Hi all,

I am having trouble with planet ring and my linux PC-DC server. Every time I log in I get the "This table is full" on every table I go to. I did read that some people have resolved this by putting the PC-DC server in DMZ but this has not solved the problem for me....anybody have any ideas?

I am using the planet ring loader with an original GD-ROM with all ports forwarded in my router to the PC-DC server local IP...as well as the DMZ.

Thanks

It's possible that the server needs restarted. This could be a bug on our end because occasionally there is a table full message that appears on most of the tables. DMZ mode should do the trick for getting the DC to connect properly. We'll look into this.

Hey, thanks for the reply

I just had a very quick check with standard PAYG dial up and it connected fine and tables were available. I also had a list pop up on screen which I also don't get via the PC-DC server. I then tried it again on the PC-DC server and the problem remains....all tables full so it must be an issue my end...just can't figure out what it could be?

Thanks again

I was online with TacT last night. I did not have any problems at the tables except Splash. I believe the problem was that the game seem to have to do with the problems TacT was having while online. He had a few problems with the same tables message that I did not experience. I connected via the Netopia method. I do not recall how TacT connected but like myself, I believe he can connect via DC-PC server and Netopia methods.

Hi again,

OK, well I seem to have sorted it.

Although it was one of the first things I tried (and failed) I set the ports to forward to the dreamcast rather than the PC-DC server. when I used this initially the prblem remained...why it got it working this time I don't know...I guess I must have chnaged something else inbetween.

In any case...it works...at least for now

Thanks for the input

Cheers

Ya I had the same problem happen when I first tried this game, I could not get it to connect at all using my Mac Setup, so i got a netopia and it connects fine,
but when i connected it did not show any users online and all the tables were full, but i could connect and login and walk around.
I fixed it by setting all ports forwarded to the dreamcast's IP.

I did have another problems sometimes I would try to go into a game it would say its Down for maintenance or something but when I reconnected it worked ok.

All tables full is a UDP issue, open the udp ports for planet ring and it should be fine.

I hate to revive this thread but i having the same issue saying the tables are full when i connect. I'm using the netopia method and i put the dreamcast IP in DMZ and it still doesn't work any suggestions?

[Neoblast]

Full with any players? or full with none?

If it's the latter one then you have a problem with the UDPs.

Forwarding or not something might be blocking them....
