We recently received a report that a user who was previously unable to load into the game with their firewall active was able to do so once they changed their firewall settings. Below you will see what the user did to allow them to load the game.
When playing Rise of Nations: Extended Edition make sure you have the following enabled for ANY of your firewall settings. Windows or 3rd party.
- Under your firewall settings add exceptions for both Public and Private for any Rise of Nations files that you see
- If you've already done this, double check to ensure that your Firewall pop-up hasn't loaded behind the game window. If this has happened it could be asking for permission to run Rise files. Not selecting to allow could cause performance issues
This should allow you to load into the game and reduce any issues you may have previously had loading the game. Please let us know if you have any success after making these changes.
Thank you
~Rise of Nations Team~
