Hi,

I didn't get that problem with OA 0.8.1, but I had with previous versions :D

Some guys posted here and explain a workaround to fix that issue.
Such as here :

Thank very much.
Problem resolved with:
1. search in path (using Windows Vista) : C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Roaming\OpenArena\baseoa  the file  q3config.cfg
2. if you find this, duplicate q3config.cfg in  q3config.cfg_original
3. modify file q3config.cfg whit an xml editor, for example notepad++ (Portableapps.com). Notepad.exe not work correctly
4. at the bottom of the file append:
   <code>
   seta net_port 32000
   seta net_port6 32000
   seta net_qport 32001
   </code>
5. save the file
6. try
7. for me work

Thank's all.
