whenever I make or join a game, my screen is stuck on the loading screen at 'sending client info' but the weird thing is is that I can hear people, and the people can hear me when I pressed Esc, I changed my graphics in hopes of fixing my lack of sight, but everything just went black. (I could still hear sounds though)
Could be you're not allowed to play, have you been added to the Steam access list (ask Trickster or MOOtant)
All I did was download the 'steam.zip' and then put the .cfg file in my steam folder am I missing a step?
I hope you also downloaded Steampires? Under Games, a new uninstalled game will appear: "Empires". Download that and use it to connect
No, he connected, but it was really weird. He could hear our voices, and mic chat to us, but he was still at sending client info, or retrieving it, I forget which.
