Georgeoforce Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Hi guys, I recently started playing Project Zomboid multiplayer, and I played it with a friend for about an hour or two with no problems. Eventually we got split up and he died, so we had to restart the server and make a new world to start a fresh. Unfortunately, upon restarting the server, and deleting the server files, I was unable to connect to his server. I did a full uninstall and reinstall, which seemed to fix the problem, but then he was able to go past black areas in the map that I wasn't, as if my game hadn't rendered the chunks of the map.My internet is completely fine, with 30mb/s down and 2mb/s up I don't see why it would be a problem. We're playing through Hamachi, so I assume port forwarding isn't a problem, but I'm not completely sure. Please help me with this, because I really enjoy this game, and I want to play it more. George. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connall Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Whoever is hosting the server, sounds like they didn't forward their ports correctly to allow for Map Streaming. So that might be the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rathlord Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 It's also possible your old save game was corrupting the file. Delete your /username/Zomboid folder to delete all of your old saves, this might clear it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullmetal_Kira Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 If none of the above works try using hamachi that fixed it for my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that might be the problem.I don't get the black squares on my other friend's port forwarded server, so that's probably the issue. Thanks!
