Experience with Gamesyp -> start Game

[MarkyMark]

When i start normally CIV3-Game then i dont see who is in lobby. So i go in gamespy without starting civ3, when i then start game it is often curios. The Game starts but i get real connection,think i need too long. But i have tried this only one-time, normaly i start both? have you experience with this?

It is from interest for me to see with whom i can play or not. I select normally my Players when i see old Guardiansclan Veterans.

Hi!

I've experienced the same problem...
I've tried to have PTW running (main screen) in the backgroud while in GSpy, but when I hooked up to a game and the game actually launched... nothing happened. My PTW wouldn't connect. At present, the only way I know how to connect via GSpy is to have the CD in the player and PTW NOT running. It takes approx. 30 sec. for the game to load and hook-up to the host.

Any sollutions?
