With Version 6.10, the Solitaire 3D application test for internet is failing.
I am using windows 7, 32 & 64. Never had this problem with previous version.

Am I the only one ?

No your not the only one, alas.

I don't see any problem here - maybe you can report what the log file says ?

Do the check first, get the fail, then exit the game, then check the log file. You can post its contents in this thread.

Accessing the log file.

Ok thanks - looks like the same problem on both machines.

Is there a fix coming for this? I am getting the same error code from the log file on both Windows 7 and 8 (both 64-bit). The workaround is of no use because the world score list isn't being retrieved.

EDIT: Ok, I'm getting world scores updates in windowed mode when I switch from local to world scores, but otherwise I see "FAILED" on the update button. Also, I've added firewall rules to allow the config and game exe's, but it hasn't made a difference.

A new version is available (V6.14, Windows, full version only for now) for download:

. a better quality icon
. some updates to internet access (the internet test failing problem may be fixed)
. an option to ignore the internet test failed warning and submit your scores anyway (must be done once per session)
. easy logs access from the about screen in the game

If you need your customer login information to get the full version go here. You also probably have the information in an email from when you ordered the game originally.

This looks like your internet is not working or you have a firewall blocking the game from accessing the internet, or maybe grassgames.com was down while you were trying.

Aidan, worked fine under previous version, Internet was available - GrassGames was able to deliver me the upgrade. But I can't pass the "Internet test" with this version. However, when I submit my score and Ignore the "have to run the test" message, I do see world scores. Bit of bipolarness, no?

You are (currently) on the latest version borisgleb. I just checked the windows version myself and seems to do the update check fine, so again I'd have to refer you to the previous suggestions above, as can't think of anything else that could be causing the problems at the moment - also others don't seem to be having the problem.

Aidan, Once I told it to ignore the internet test, the problem went away. It no longer wants to do an internet test, and the world scores come up as before on all the games I play. Sorry to be a bother, but when the error occurred just after I updated, I assumed it was a reappearance of the 6.10 problem. My bad.

No worries, something was/is going wrong with your update check.

For anyone still having problems with this, please try V6.61 (or later).

Hi AIDAN !

I am using Win 10 and after an installation error when connecting to the Internet came again. I do not remember how to solve a problem. Please help. I would also like to know where you can obtain downloads for previous versions of course officially.

THX.
