Hi

The EXCLUSIVE error means your host resides in Australia or New Zealand, and GameCreate (unfortunately) cannot be used by anyone else within these regions as they are licensed by other companies for exclusive use.

[Night-Fire]

I was told as you guys lease out CS and other game servers you's dont want compitiion hence the non-allowence of the program working for your fellow aussies... thats disapointing...

[Andrew]

Nope.

Its actually because we have agreements with other companies who use GameCreate (long before it was made available on gamecreate.com) and they continue to use it in their respective services.

TELSTRA **COUGH**

[Night-Fire]

So we cant even leese it?

[Andrew]

Correct - You cant use GameCreate for hosts that reside in Australia or New Zealand, either for commercial or hobbiest reasons.
