I wan't to add that <!--sizeo:4--><span style="font-size:14pt;line-height:100%"><!--/sizeo--><b>im also</b><!--sizec--></span><!--/sizec--> not being able to play explore mode or create Listen Servers as it is. (since 222)
Getting stuck at Loading all the time for both.
i would post my log but i really don't know where to find it. (too many folders!! im lost!)
And im a Core 2 Duo user, if there is any curse on having those.
As of build 223 I still cannot start Explore mode, this issue has not been resolved.
Sadly it is now slightly worse in that I can no longer kill the process with ctrl-alt-del and have to reset or manually power off to get the PC to respond again.
How come in every build / update, NS says they "fixed" explore mode. Yet, it's <b>still</b> stuck in loading? Even in the latest update of today.

As of build 225 this issue is resolved for me and I am able to start Explore mode successfully. I have done a BIOS update and installed newer motherboard chipset drivers but I think it is unlikely that these things made a difference to this issue and appears to have been a fix by the devs.
