A few years ago I played on version 0.38 on Windows 98 SE. Ever since I got Windows 2k and reinstalled SS on version 0.40 I haven't been able to connect to any servers and when I go to the Zone list I get a message saying "Unable to retrive zone list...". Because of this I haven't been able to play one of my favorite games in over 3 years. I've checked my firewalls, checked my connection speed (DSL), scanned for spyware/adware/viruses, uninstalled/reinstalled, and I don't share my connection with anyone. I've been tracing TW for over 150 cycles and all I've got is Hop 1. Does anyon know how I can fix this problem? EDIT: I've gone through an insane number of cycles and s…

Greetings, I've download and installed Continuum .40 successfully, but whenever I click an arena and click "play", the stars start flying at me as if it's going to load, but then I get a short little message that says "Connection to Server Lost". I can play this fine on another computer in my house, so I know it's not my Internet connection or anything. Anyways, any help would be appreciated!

Hey, I just upgraded my computer and now Continuum won't work. It installed just fine, but when I launch it, nothing happens. At all. No process, no thread, no window, no error, no report. Nothing's blocked. I've added it to SpyDoctor and Norton's Allow lists and I've set it to run compatibility mode and to be run as Administrator. I've also disabled UAC. Any thoughts?

I have 3 computers, which uses LAN for internet, and when we all play at the same time, our C2S start spiking up. But, the ping is usually fine, it never changes. I don't know if its the just the zone or is the the router issue. If it is the router issue, can anyone help reduce the C2S lag?

Yea .39 or .38 wont start on this computer. I havn't dl'ed .40 yet on this comp but when i try to run either of the other version I don't even get an error message. My mouse icon goes to the hourgl!@#$%^&* for about a second or to, the turns to the normal icon, but ss never opens. The only thing that has changed on the computer recently is I downloaded spyware doctor from google's free software pack. I know sometimes these spyware sweepers can disable programs functionality if they remove something needed for that program, but I thought if this was the case continuum would at least say some error (like it sometimes says missing a DLL or it says thay fatal error m…

Possible Solution to Game Not Starting
by Guest Guest Person- 6 replies
- 1.1k views
When I first downloaded and installed Continuum, it wouldn't play at all. I read and tried all the solutions suggested in this forum -- disabling all antivirus, then spyware detector, then cleaned the registry, then installed and reinstalled - nothing worked. Finally, I thought I'd try to load Continuum in Safe Mode + Networking. It loaded. Then, using trial and error - I eventually figured out what was causing Continuum to not load... it was a Service called "Pharos System ComTaskMaster" I was really surprised by this discovery... I have to use Pharos in order to print in my school, but still, I can load it whenever I want ~ so everything worked out in the end. …

I'm getting a new computer in a few days, so I will be installing Continuum onto that computer. However, I have a lot of names on this computer with varying passwords. I have too so many names that it would take too long for me to simply add them one by one if I were to download Continuum fresh. Also, my passwords vary, and I share names with a few people, so I can't change those passwords. Is there anyway I can transfer the entire Continuum file to my new computer? Any possibilities are accepted and appreciated!! Thanks

For some reason, after I downloaded the new version of SS, I had a problem. Whenever I open it, it says that it is refreshing zones. After a few seconds, it says that it could not finish because it is not currently available or I'm not connected to the internet. Is anyone else having trouble? Can someone help me? Are you my real father? .39 works fine though. kill3rkilo@yahoo.com if you got something for me. K, Thanks.

ok, I was told about this site by a friend, I come here to play, So I sign up, I make a new account, (this ine here), and it seems to work for the forums and all, but I dowloaded the actual game, and it won't let me F*ing play. I put in my username & password, and when I press play on a world, it says I put in the wrong password, (and I checked it like 5 times, so IT IS the right password).

Guys, I'm an old-timer. I've been away a long time but I go back to the original builds of Subspace (and worked with Virgin Games when it was published). I've just recently gotten back to Continuum and wanted to use my gamepad. I know most don't like them but I do. It used to work fine but now simply will not function. I see posts from others with no real answers on this. Yes I have the option enabled. Yes the pad (Logitech Dual Action) works in every other joystick game. It just won't work here. I can't get the input page to acknowledge any input from it. Is there some reason anyone can point to for this? Is there perhaps a work-around that I could edit some CFG file…
