No Chat Servers?

[Edensoul]

Hey There,

I signed up for the game again yesterday and I haven't been able to connect to a chat server in game yet. What's going on? Am I the only one?

When I log in it just gives me 3 errors that say the same thing:

(Error): The chat server is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later.

As an update, I figured out I can send tells, but that's it.

i believe you have a vista problem, if you have vista search these forums for vista chat problems, it's a user port interface thing

Yeah, U have to go into your Userpreferences.ini found in Start>Documents>DDO Folder, Use Your Find Feature to find [net] section and go to the fourth line where it says User Specified Port=0 change the 0 to 9000

I believe thats the right info, there might be small discrepencies in spacing, but yeah had a guy in guild upgrade to vista other day and had to find the info for him on this problem, thats why I know it, lol.

Say NO to Vista. Thats my honest Opinion.
