Game crashed - now can't connect to play online

from Demigod Forums

This happens pretty regularly to me - when I get an unhandled exception, or if I have to use task manager to close Demigod for whatever miscellaneous crash happens to grab me, I have a really tough time getting back online to play once the game restarts. 

When I click the "Internet" button on the multiplayer menu, it usually locks up indefinitely; sometimes it just locks up for a solid 3 - 5 minutes (which is an eternity when you're just sitting waiting for it to connect).  If/when it finally moves on to the login screen, the same thing happens - locks up for a long time before the game lobby comes up, if it comes up at all.

Are any fixes for this issue known?

We'll need to gather some information to help solve your issue.  There are log files that refresh every time the game is closed.  Immediately after a crash, disconnect, or lack of connection can you please close Demigod and follow this link in Internet Explorer to gather those log files:

Save the file, run it, and attach the .zip file (located under YOUR USERNAME\My Documents\My Games\Gas Powered Games\Demigod\report) it generates to an e-mail to [email protected]?

Thanks, I'll try that.
