The ip address the game is trying to use is invalid
The ip address the game is trying to use is invalid
Hi,
Anyone knows how to solve this problem? @EAGLEMUT
https://i.gyazo.com/197c9d1b6a722c60be3 ... 56ad87.png
I specify that I use a vpn because else i can't play with mobile data, so my ip adress changes regularly, but this problem didn't appear with the use of this vpn. For 2 weeks i had use normal connexion with modem, but today back to use vpn, this error come :/.

Re: The ip address the game is trying to use is invalid
It happens when your ip address is changed after you logged in on eso. In other words, say you had x ip address which you used to log in and in the process your ip address is changed to y, you'll see this message when you try to make room or join any lobby.
Re: The ip address the game is trying to use is invalid
Well, my ip isn't changed. Does it checks the local ip ?

You can try: right click on aoe shortcut > properties > "shortcut" tab > add a space + OverrideAddress="your ip" in the "target" field

Re: The ip address the game is trying to use is invalid
Yea already try it but it doesn't work.
I try eso on RE game and strangely there is no ip adress problem, all work fine, so i get this error only on EP :(.

Quoting some guy from steam discussion
I once had problems going online because I had a 'non-updated version' or something like that. So I just re-installed it and it worked. I'm not a PC expert at all so I don't know much about connections. Maybe try and change your IP-adress.
These are the solutions AoE recommends (but, again, you might have seen them already):
1) Power Cycle your network hardware: Turn off your modem, router, and computer.
Wait a few minutes then turn them back on one at a time in the listed order.
Some routers need to be power cycled to except new versions of software such as Age of Empires 3
2) If you connect wirelessly, connect with a wired connection.
3) Verify your Firewall or internet security software is allowing Age3 (age3.exe) and TWC (age3x.exe) to pass through
4) Disable your Firewall or internet security software temporarily while you test connecting to the game.
5) Upgrade your firmware on your router and your network card
6) Toggle UPnP (If you have UPnP on, try turning it off and if you have UPnP off, try turning it on.
7) Test with the DMZ setting both on and off
8) Port forward UDP and TCP/IP ports 2300-2310 to your machine. If that range does not work try expanding it to cover ports 2300-2340, or try using the OverridePort command listed below.
Some routers have a Gaming Mode. Be sure to enable that option if your router supports this feature.
9) If your router has logging turned on make sure to clean off your logs or restart logging before playing Age of Empires 3
10) Change your computers IP on your router. Example: if your computer sits at 192.168.0.100 change it to 192.168.0.200
Re: The ip address the game is trying to use is invalid
Thanks but as i said i use my data mobile as modem so i can't set up the modem and it's prob not the problem cause i have no error on RE game so its weird.
I guess i will just reinstall esoc patch and hope it works.

Re: The ip address the game is trying to use is invalid
Oh I didn't see that. Did you try any other server on your vpn?
Re: The ip address the game is trying to use is invalid
Yes try some server and no change, i have reinstall esoc patch and there is always this error.

Re: The ip address the game is trying to use is invalid
Does this occur only on ESOC Patch, or on RE as well?
Also, I've never had any luck getting the `OverrideAddress` setting to change anything in the outgoing traffic. It would be possible to rewrite outgoing traffic though, so we could probably make this less likely to occur on EP.

Re: The ip address the game is trying to use is invalid
Only on EP yes, i have check the outgoing traffic in my firewall and don't see any weird thing but i'm not a pro of this!
Maybe it's possible my anti virus did bad things ? but i don't think.

Are you able to access https://abc.xyz/ in your browser?

OK interesting. Will have to discuss with @EAGLEMUT on possible solutions.

Re: The ip address the game is trying to use is invalid
@flontier Probably the best solution for you is to follow the steps in my post here, but instead of "eso.com", use "abc.xyz".

If we get more reports of this issue, we may have to consider reverting the EP change that caused it.

Re: The ip address the game is trying to use is invalid
i can connect without invalid ip error coming up, however i did not need to change eso.com to abc.xyz in host file, i added eso.com to the host file though, and playing around with the config
