where are you located?

#

does it allow you to change it thru the browser? i'm not sure how alliance servers work but if you're on one of them i'd guess that's why (you can see alliance servers at status.geforcenow.com

past glen where are you located?

#

try clicking that test network button see if it unlocks after the test

#

if that doesnt work try logging out and logging back in, if that doesn't help try restarting pc, if that doesn't help delete the app and all of it's cache (appdata/tempfiles can't remember where it's located, also in documents if there's anything related to gfn). I had this happen about a year ago can't remember how I fixed it but it was something simple

go to your gfn location, copy ''sharedstorage'' file and save it in dekstop as a backup, open the one in gfn location using notepad and delete everything then paste what i'll send in a sec

#

📎 message.txt

#

make sure to close your gfn before doing this

#

then open it and check your location

or you could play thru the browser if you don't mind slighty more input delay which doesn't matter if you're not playing online

viscid drift Mar 4, 2023, 12:58 AM
