[Ubisoft Game Launcher]Online Mode doesn't work

Post by Berillions »

Hi,

Since the Assassin's Creed : Brotherhood, the Ubisoft Game Launcher was updated. It's actually the 0268 version.

For Assassin's Creed 2 and Brotherhood, it's possible to connect at the Ubisoft server having indicated my login and password. The problem come from when i must to click on "play" to launch the game on the following window.

I have a message told me that the launcher is already launch etc...
When i see the error log, there is a problem with "Named Pipes" implemented in wine.

This the complete log after the problem :

I hope that i have explained correctly the problem to have your help.

Not really. Looks like lose ubusoft codders are idiots. ERROR_IO_PENDING Is not an error.

Does running with just one cpu help?

e.g. taskset 1 wine foo.exe

I tried to launch the game with two commands differents :

The first as explained by Dan

Code: Select all

taskset 1 wine AssassinsCreedBrotherhood.exe
And the second comme with "schedtool" command :

Code: Select all

schedtool -a 0x1 -e wine AssassinsCreedBrotherhood.exe
Same result with the command and same error message like in the pastebin.

That error might really be a problem with the online game. I never tried this before so I need to try it later. There should be some other way to launch the game and connect to the server.

Have you an idea where the problem come from ?
Because like i said in my first message, i can to log me on the Ubisoft serveur with my login/password. The problem is that i can't to launch the game when i'm connected on the Ubisoft Server.

Ubisoft Game Launcher think that i have already launch an other UGL but it's wrong.

Yes that is really a troublesome for playing the online game. It seems that the good option is try to wait the newer version of the game. Anyway, there should be some other way to successfully connect to the server to be able to play online.

Hi everybody,

It seems to me that the problem results from it bug : #17195

For Luke, there are limitations in the existing wine architecture and it's maybe the reason why AC2 and Brotherhood don't launch with the Online mode.

Problem, Luke can't work to fix this bug and i don't know if others devs can search to resolv it.
