All sorted thankfully.
Issue was caused by a LAN manager program, which I believe was some software that came with the motherboard Ian ?

Yes, it was Mark. I didn't touch it either, before you start! lol
Thank you so much, it was very annoying.

They definatly have to restart the servers some day. I think it is running since they added the additional CPU some years ago... Not sure if Mark has any contact to Andrew but I think this is really needed.

Maybe someone can get in touch with the PG course designers who were recruited by Trackman and now work with Mike and Andrew?

I think Andrew still pokes his head into the PP forums occasionally. Might be worth sending him a Private Message ...

ok, I send this mesaage to Andrew today:
Hi Andrew,
hope you are doing fine these days. Could you or someone restart the game server some day? There are several problems with the game and gameplay and it might help to maintain the servers.
Thanks and stay safe :)
Thomas
Hope it helps...

Andrews answer:
Not sure what you are referring to. Online is managed through steam and I removed allmost all the code that pulled from the server many years ago.. Cheers

Andrew is referring to this topic ...
http://www.perfectparallel.com/topic/11 ... ate-today/
basically removing the PP server and relying on the Steam servers for the PG Lobby etc.
However well all know that when this site goes down ...
http://social.perfectparallel.com/
It can be a massive headache to get our PGLS tournies to start, players in the PG Lobby are non-existent and in-game chat doesn't work. Someone is still doing something to fix this situation as usually within 12 hours all is back to normal.
