Ok a bit of a weird problem..Just got a new PC with Win 8.1 on
Loaded up launcher & started with VANILLA 1.7.10 for a multiplayer game (this is a CLEAN install)... & it sees all servers I have added/listed [Theses are play.mcdaily.net, Flymc.net and play.mcball.net]
> I then use 'recommended Forge' (1108) & installed it - tried Multiplayer and one of my listed server show 'Cannot Resolve host' (play.mcdaily.net) but the other 2 servers are fine
> I then redone with 'latest' Forge (1208) - same thing. 1 server 'Cannot resolve host' (same one - play.mcdaily.net) while the other 2 are fine
I even cleared out the MOD folder just in case of some conflict, but same thing
I read it MIGHT be Java version e.g. v8 instead of v7 - but I have '1.7_67.b01' (64-bit) installed
Even wiped out minecraft folder & re-installed.. same thing 'Vanilla works fine (even 1.8 ) but as soon as I add forge.. that one server has 'cannot resolve host'
Any idea why Minecraft doesn't work with forge added for that one server ??
The weird thing (IFAIK) is all 3 servers are 'hosted' by the same company.. so why does 2 show ok - while the third doesn't
Any help appreciated - & thanks in advance
