Roger on Knuckles' Advice...
I removed the new (2003) IBROWSE, and did an update on the game (5th time this week LOL) to get the old Ibrouwse (2002). I then replaced the EXE with the V2 Fixed EXE, and left the Nova Startup in place. I logged in and went to the servers with my name and tags on.. Woo hoo.. Now I can see who I'm killin LOL

-I have ré-installed the game (without uninstall before)
-I have updated the game
-And i have replaced the C4.exe by the 1.20 version
Now, I can go on the servers(with login and password) and my name appears ... on the servers EFA ; UFS and FUN also.
What worked for me............
I used the player manager to change the start up HTM back to the orignal HTM (thats HTM No1 where you have to log in), then i started the game normaly and logged in to my old account at nova, i retrived my old user name and password from here www.novaworld2.com
Then the game worked ok for me, and my name showed up ok and i did not get punted after 30 mins!!

I have a theroy about whats going on with novaworld.
I think that they want to see how many people still use C4 by making us log in, mabey they are thinking about closing down C4 I dont know it's just a theroy...
I would recommend getting "Player manager" It makes messing arround with the HTM's alot eaiser, its the 5th item in this list.

I can imagine novaworld doing something like this every 2 or 3 months or so!!

i'm ok with you Blue , especially since in France it is a 5 € second hand, no interest in hacking.
I think it is a conspiracy to get us to buy Comanche 5! Oh, wait a minute, there is no Comanche 5.....

I've been thinking (I Know, it hurts!) but why have Nova done this, is it to monitor Comanche 4, or is it to secure it, or is it to stop the hacking?
It doesn't really make sense! Nova seemed to have no interest in this game apart from letting it run on their servers. They have left it up to the c4 community for quite a while now, and we were doing fine until they stuck their noses back in. I know its their baby but all they have managed to do is aggravate the situation.
As far as 'logging on' is concerned, it it OK for me as I just go thru the process of the log on, I still use the 'NoCD' patch, but the log process is just a pain. It does, however, make me want to stay longer on the servers because if I take a break, then I have to go thru the log process again.
It would be a good idea if we had a community representative to address these questions to Nova, someone who could communicate with a chief of the tribe, in private, and report back to the community, even if it's just to find out what they are up to. Then, maybe we could make the modifications ligitimately, with their permission.

I think that this game is on a server that hosts other recent games
and that the registration is for everybody
R6 gets my vote for liaison officer he is already doing a grand job
So where are we with all of this ?
Well even with the old Ibrowse and startup.html files it screws up. I have the orginals and ever other day I have to reinstall the orginals because I get an error when try to login to novaworld or it won't even respond to the login prompt. I have to then take my backup copy of Ibrowse and start the game over again then it works. I think the is a bug in the dynamic link library that is sending it to the wrong ip addy.
Can anyone get on?
Crazy Mess this is indeed. Either everyone having to login was overloading their servers or they were just checking to see if anyone was still playing.
Has anyone else been getting the "Page cannot be displayed" error the last couple days when trying to login to NovaWorld? It was okay earlier today but right now I keep getting that error and can't get in
