Solution to HTTP 500 error

[MaverickMe]

Connect to a VPN and problem solved. The simplest way to do this is:

1. Download and install the Opera GX browser: https://www.opera.com/gx
2. Enable the Opera VPN addon: https://addons.opera.com/en/extensio...ils/opera-vpn/
3. Activate the VPN via the VPN button on your browser
4. Connect to game as normal, works for both Unity and Client.

Edit 1: Shorter URL for sharing with fellow Guildies: tinyurl.com/TSO-HTTP500-Fix
Edit 2: When connecting to a VPN select a country outside the UK.
Edit 3: Your browser should have its own VPN option so search for that first or try Opera as above.
Edit 4: You can also try and use your browsers "incognito" or "private" tab option.

Doesn't work for test server which is also http 500

Down for me in the UK but have got in via VPN to a German server

I installed ZenMate free VPN for chrome, though I am in UK, the game now thinks I am in Germany and it works, both with Unity and with the client. Make sure after installing the VPN, that you activate it

Question: How can you solve a "Internal server error", which is the Error 500 explanation, by using something external like a VPN?

I might be blond but, if the engine is broken you can't solve it by starting with it with another or new boot..

Or am I completely out of the park here?

[MaverickMe]

HTTP 500 error is about as vague as a weather reporter just saying "It is going to rain". Somewhere a block of IP addresses have become blocked from accessing the TSO server. A VPN bypasses that blocked range but only if you select a VPN country outside of the UK. Some players inside the UK can connect but most can't so it is very random for now.

It's a good solution. Yet more hoops to jump through

I was just sitting here pondering how the fuck do I tell BB I can't get fucking on when I can't get fucking on to say it.

Must be a lot of people out like me. And I'm not even in the UK. Or maybe that's the problem because my inbox was full of trades form UK guildies.

I wasn't going to bother with the hoops but as I was already on Opera a simple "click green enable button" sorted me. This must be a bottom performance from BB.

Bottom performance is apt as they are increasingly being show to be a load of anuses
