Yeah, I believe a lot of you keep on complaining about this.. And there is no concrete solution for this..
What had happen is when the game was trying to access few of its server with different port than 80. And that port was blocked by your admin..
I believe normally this would happen when you was in corporate network (whoopss!).
As a workaround, you might need to do some SSH Tunneling to overcome this limitation.
Before tunneling
YOU<–>OFFICE FIREWALL<–>INTERNET<–>ZYNGA RCK
- your RCK was not loading because the OFFICE FIREWALL was blocking required port (843 & 9339)
After Tunneling
YOU<–>(22)OFFICE FIREWALL(22)<–>(22)INTERNET(22)<–>(22)TUNNEL SERVER(843 & 9339)<–>(843 & 9339)ZYNGA RCK(843 & 9339)
- your RCK should succesfully loaded
Requirements;
- another machine that you can load Roller Coaster Kingdom
- SSH daemon installed on that machine
- If the machine was windows you may install cygwin, download cygwin here - putty instaled on your machine, download putty here
- your network should not blocking port 22 (it will be used by putty)
After everything was correctly installed, follow these step;
1) run below command from the location of that putty.exe
putty -D PORT TUNNELSERVER
where PORT is the port number you want to use.
where TUNNELSERVER is the tunneling server IP or Hostname.
2) configure your web browser to use that tunnel server.
- Firefox: Tools > Options > Network > Settings: Manual Proxy Configuration
In SOCKS Host, enter the TUNNELSERVER and PORT (as in 1)
Mark the SOCKS v5
Keep the others BLANK
- Internet Explorer: Tools > Internet Option > Connections: LAN settings
uncheck EVERYTHING except Proxy Server
click Advanced. In Socks field, enter the TUNNELSERVER and PORT (as in 1)
Keep the others BLANK
3) Now you should be able to load Roller Coaster Kingdom from your office.. (whoops again..!)
