New Release -- July 1st, 2010

[stacyhewlett]

Haven't been able to load the game for over 24 hours, so I'm gonna say it had nothing to do w/ the maintenance fiasco and everything to do with the small update yesterday morning. It started after that last update.

sorry Stacy have you tried this??

**Further to clearing browser cache and history to ‘clean’ the system, there will be a cdn. folder in your computer’s C drive which collects corrupt and ‘trash’ files from flash-based games such as Farm Town.
Clearing this can help with some issues, such as connection errors, loading issues, and sometimes problems with chat, hiring and invisibility on the game.**

This is to be used ONLY after all other suggestions have failed, and ONLY if you are confident about deleting files within the root drive of your computer.
You need to have administrator access to your PC in order to do this.

The name of the folder is cdn.slashkey.com, and it will typically be found in the Macromedia folder on C:\ drive.
This folder contains all of flash player’s cached files, and clearing it forces a ‘rebuild’ of the information so that the new connection to the game is completely clean (like a new start)

To search for it, go to start menu > search > files folder > and enter cdn.slashkey.com.
Make sure your Internet Browser is closed, and no other files are open, or you will get an error.

Select the folder and delete it.

Reboot your computer before reloading the browser and logging back into Farm Town. This recreates the folder with fresh contents and server information, and forces an update of your system in relation to the game.

Does not exist on my MacBookPro running 10.6 (Snow Leopard) either. However, not a problem because when I "Reset" Safari I am also clearing all history, links, cookies as well as the cache depending on what Reset options I choose. ... When I first read about the .cdn folder, I did a full search of my hard drive and no such folder exists.
