Weird... That really looks like they changed something in the various vista packages. I tried both ways and the game is working.

Revision - I can join an online game perfectly.... HOWEVER, I just found out, when I try to play a demo, or start a new game, it causes the bind socket error... So its something with loading a map locally?

Right. Loading a map locally starts a server, and that's where the socket error kicks in.

Are demos affected?

I know the answer, but I'm much more interested as to what you think the answer is.

:-(

I don't know if a server is started or if the client just plays back the packets in the demo - sorry for not having played with code I don't understand :-(

I think Avast! is the problem, when I got it on my computer, i got shutdowngame with failed to bind socket, and when i remove it, it works again

Perhaps another anti-virus or firewall program then?

Sure, but it is the same if i disable it.

Ok, so if you have the socket problem with bulid 21, what version of vista are you using? Likewise, those that aren't having the problem - what version of vista do you have?

Let's make it simple:

Vista verison: ___
Do you get the socket error when starting a server (or typing "map" at the console)?: ___

Anything different other than the language? Like apps or firewall settings?
