No UDP packets

[Dukethejuke]

Use a G2, was working fine and now get "10:12:17.637 Listening for IL_2_Great_Battles UDP packets at port 29373. If there is no signal yet, please refer to " The Test button works fine. Help please. Start conf settings are there.

same here. it used to work, i changed nothing now its giving me the same message. did you ever figure it out?

I figured out my problem! I recently started using a new VPN, Nord, it turns out it blocks the port forwarding of the UDP packets. I turned off the VPN and restarted il-2 and it went back to working flawlessly. Hope this helps some people.

 

Even with split tunnel connection I wouldn't work. I normally turn it off for online but was messing around in single player.

Finally! This fixed it for me too.

I recently reset my PC, and for whatever reason, SimShaker is now working with my VPN. Just thought I'd throw this out there.
