This sounds vaguely familiar to me, do some searches on here if you haven't already and see if there's already a thread.

Do you have the latest patches? Did you validate online and everything?

i played this game 3 months ago , and now this happens .I'll try to do the tutorial first.

One more thing i forgot to mention , before the menu show is saying in the bottom right side of the screen:Connecting to Disconnected.

Come on guys ...100+ views and no one can help me out ?even a sugestion ?

I just installed the game and i can't play it because i can't find the solo patch to be able to play without connecting to the servers. I went on the cities xl website and it was on there before but now the website is different and all the stuff for the 2009 version is gone. Does anyone know where to get this solo patch other than the citiesxl website?

Ryandishong I have the exact same problem. I have asked for help on the forum there, in the Cities XL Technical Support section. Lets wait for a reply.

I just reinstalled the game as well, and here's what happens:

1. Install. After you finish and try to start the game, the log in screen appears, but it tries to connect to the old MC system, which is no longer available. 'Unable to connect, service unavailable', etc. Game won't start.

2. Find the solo patch. There are still a number of download sites where you could get it (OUTSIDE the old MC system, and also the new CXL 2011 site). I personally found it on Fileplanet here: http://www.fileplanet.com/210450/download/Cities-XL-Patch-v1.03.297-to-v1.1.0457-B4

-but there are also other options. Just do a Google search for 'Cities XL solo patch'

3. Download and install it. It's a manual process, just click the patch file and it should start patching.

4. After you've done this, try to start the game again. The log in screen will appear - type in your old user and password (from the time you played the game with MC), and Connect. I'm not sure if the thing actually connects anywhere (it shouldn't - it's supposed to be a solo game already), but afterwards the 'Connect' button changes to 'Play'. There you go.
