What do you mean by "kick"? Do you mean they crash to desktop (CTD)?

If so, I found out that this happens when your mission makes use of a boat or object class that was introduced by a mod, which the player does not have installed.

Could that be your problem? :hmm:

No..I mean when other players join after it finishes loading,the other players are kicked from the game.I don't have any other ships(mods) in,just sound and grapics like airplanes.So I know its nothing to do w/the settings of the map or mods.None of the grapics change important files.Anything I put in,I test to make sure it doesn't mess the game up.The only thing I can think of ,it is some kind of a bug w/the editor.I have read,that other people have had the same problem.But was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this, instead of re-doing the mission again.It seems like it happens after you re-open a mission and make changes.This is not the first time it has happened,look at the mission,it is not a very complicated one,it should work,fine.It might be the order of the way I am doing the changes,that cause it,not sure,see if you can get it to work,it should work.It validates fine.But not able to host it without it kicking the players out,frustrating.

I took a quick look at your MIS file but I'm not expert enough to see what the problem could be.

You can, however, correct your briefing text's spelling and grammar:
Briefing=We struck paydirt - a heavily escorted battle group. Concentrate on the battleships and carriers.
:know: ;)

I have had the same problem with some of my missions but that is usually because I have so much stuff built into it that all of the other computer probably can't download everything!
Your missions fairly simple, no Mines no planes?
so I'm not sure why it is not letting people in!
do you have the same problem with any other mission?
You might try remaking it with a few different ships, It shouldn't take too long to make! and the spelling of the mission will not make any difference to anything, you could put Chinese in it and it wouldn't matter, maybe change the date??

I will give it a try,found out one thing though,I did'nt put any planes in the mission,but later in the mission they appear(two planes),must be because of one of the aircraft carriers (just a couple of them)I put in.I have had this happen before w/other missions I moddified,I don't think it's because of too much stuff,because have had it happen w/other missions,must be a bug in the editor,bummer.

This may be a silly question but are you using the NO CD fix in order to use your computer without Starforce also saving the wear and tear for your DVD?

These are handy files to use cause you can use your game normally in all respects with out Starforce except the missions may have a problem if they were made using these files, if so just use the normal files and load the mission up and re-save it!

I really don't thing that it matters how or what order you do it in.
have you tried to use the mission validater


try starting out with 2 subs and 1 or 2 targets and work your way up
PM me and I'll try to get with you and help to logon to your mission
tonight! and maybe we can figure out why people can't get in!

Sure looks like one of my missions. Is it Tigers? If so I played it many times with no one getting kicked. Mind if I ask where you got it or did you make it yourself?

I had a look at it and it looks to be mine but with added ships. I am pretty sure anyway. If you want the one I made PM me. It works because I played online quite a few times. :up: :up:
