I'm using Windows Vista version 0.9.13 of HedgeWars and when I go onto the official server I can't see any of the games that are being created by people. Any help/advice?

You're sure you've got 0.9.13 (can be checked in title bar)? Also ensure the game isn't blocked by the Windows firewall (or a similar program).

Hey there, thanks for your comment. I just looked into it and it was causing the problem because of vista's parental controls not allowing anyone without admin to run a program with full internet access. This can be solved by checking the box "Run as an administrator" Not sure if that has been a problem with anyone else!

Or set an exception for Hedgewars (think that's possible) or disable the controls as a whole (if you don't need them).
