Silkroad Online Forums

sometimes either the "start"-button or the imagecode wont show up for me. I think it got something to do with my hosts-file. Anyone know the new IP to put into it?

Thanks in advance

Moved to the right section

I thought this problem was related to my hosts file too but it wasnt.
The start button will appear as long as you are able to open the homepage of the official site(yes, a host name resolving problem), and the start button didnt appear for me with the ip in hosts file and without it.
so u just try to open the homepage for the couple of first times u'll get the famous "page cannot be displayed" just keep refreshing it until it comes up. when the page will load successfully, try loading the game, the start button MUST appear.(it's something to do with the silkroad loader ability to read the new announcements on the official homepage (which u see when the start button appears))
