Playing in France, getting a white screen?

Hey guys. Sorry about the trouble you guys are having accessing the game. We're trying to collect information about this bug so we can work on a solution, but we're going to need your help.

We're going to need you to run a "trace route" on a particular server to see if you are being blocked. The more players experiencing this issue that run this test, the easier we'll be able to figure out what the problem is.

Steps:
1) Open Start Menu
2) Select "Run..."
3) Type "cmd" (no quotes) - This will open the Command Prompt
4) Type "tracert 209.132.252.220" (no quotes)
5) Allow trace route to complete (should be fairly quick)
6) Right Click on Command window and choose "Select All"
7) Press Enter (this will Copy the text)
8) Reply to this thread by pasting in contents of Command window. The part we need starts with "Tracing route to www...." and ends with "Trace complete".

The first line of the trace route (starts with "1") will have an IP address at the end. Remove that IP address before posting your message. See below:

Mutant links

Status: FIXED

Description: Players will find they are unable to claim anything from their feeds. There will be neither pop-ups in the game, nor any coins mysteriously added to their balance.

What to do: Upon closer examination and comparison, we can see that links have gone "mutant". For example, a normal link looks like this:


This is extremely time consuming however, so you may find it more worthwhile to actually abandon posts until this gets fixed.

Greek

Status: Fixed

Description: Players using the Greek language option will find the game will not load for them. They will receive an error similar to one below:


Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';', expecting ')' in /home/mgweb/core3/cache/CACHE_lang_tables.lang_id=8.game_id=3.table_id=1.php on line 733

What to do:

  2. You will see a little box of text at the top. Click the "Click here to play in English". Little Rock Pool will now change to English settings.
  3. Close all the game windows, whether it is of Island Paradise or Little Rock Pool.
  4. Log out of Facebook.
  5. Log back into Facebook.
  6. Load Island Paradise. It should now open in English. You can choose to change it to any other language other than Greek until the bug is fixed.

Translation into Greek:

  1. Τοποθέτηση του Little Rock Pool εφαρμογή. Μπορείτε να το βρείτε εδώ: http://apps.facebook.com/rockpool/ (Εάν δεν έχετε ήδη προσθέσει αυτήν την εφαρμογή, είναι ασφαλές να προσθέσω, δεδομένου ότι είναι μια εφαρμογή, επίσης, εκ μέρους της Meteor Games.
  2. Θα δείτε ένα μικρό κουτί κειμένου στην κορυφή. Κάντε κλικ στο "Κάντε κλικ εδώ για να παίξετε στην αγγλική γλώσσα". Little Rock Pool θα αλλάξει τώρα στα αγγλικά ρυθμίσεις.
  3. Κλείστε όλα τα παράθυρα παιχνίδι, είτε είναι από το νησί παραδείσου ή Little Rock πισίνα.
  4. Έξοδος του Facebook.
  5. Συνδεθείτε πίσω στο Facebook.
  6. Paradise Island Φορτίου. Θα πρέπει τώρα να ανοίξει στα αγγλικά. Μπορείτε να επιλέξετε να το αλλάξετε σε οποιαδήποτε άλλη γλώσσα εκτός από ελληνικά μέχρι το σφάλμα διορθώνεται.

Please note that the Greek translation was made using http://translate.google.com/ , so there may be grammatical errors aplenty.

Disappearing Barn

Status: Pending.

Description: Players will find the barn go missing on their island.

What to do: Check your storage! If it isn't there yet, you probably just have to wait a bit, refresh the game and recheck storage. Some players will find their barn is reset to level 1, or have issues with upgrading it again after this occurs. Send a ticket to Support if this occurs, Support can fix your barn for you, as long as you tell them what level your barn was on/how many supplies you're missing.

No Pop-up

Status: FIXED

Description: Players clicking on posts from their friends that give coins, experience or an adoptable animal will not receive a pop-up when the load the game. The coins, experience and animals still are credited correctly however, so this seems to only be a display issue. (Keep in mind that adoptable animals may have been adopted by another player before you, so you may not get the animal despite the fact you clicked it.)

Supporting Island Paradise

Status: FIXED

Missing Crops

Status: Pending.

Update: Two fixes have been synced on Thursday, May 20th. It is too early at this stage to tell if these fixes have completely eliminated the problem.

Description: Planted crops will disappear even after saving.

What to do: There is no fix, but if you have lost coins, you can file with Support for reimbursement. Some players have found that using a Mega or a Tiki seeder decreased the frequency of disappearing crops, while others will find the opposite is true. Yet others will seed a few plots, save, refresh a few times, then continue the cycle to minimize losses.

Update: A fix was put out, so some problems may have been decreased, but the problem is not altogether fixed.

Description: Players may find large numbers of gifts lost. There is no fix for this, nor will Support reimburse lost gifts because they did not register correctly with server, so they cannot check how much you may or may not have lost.
