Take a look here viewtopic.php?f=832&t=88134
Make sure you (and your colleagues) are looking on the same server (German, Continental Europe or International) and are using the same version of the game (1.4.2 is the latest). Try to search for the name of the game (consider correct spelling) and use the following settings:
Map: all maps
Language: all languages
max. number of players: 16
no password: off
game isn't full: off
mods/DLCs: off
Don't forget to click "refresh" (or similar. I don't know the english designation of the button. In German it's "Aktualisieren").

Ok. I am not sure about but maybe you can check the settings of the used security software (antivirus, firewall or similar), if there is something blocked. First of all I would try to start a game without any mods, so you can be absolutely sure that isn't causing the error.

If it is saying that, you are not connected to internet or your internet connection is not strong enough.

Can you provide your log.txt?

If you are not both updated to the latest version of Farming Simulator 15, you both will NOT see each other's game. Update Farming Simulator 15 Here :this:

When you comment, click "Full Editor & Preview" and at the bottom of your comment you are making, click "Attachments", then click "Add Files". Then we can download your log.txt to see what's happening with your game.

Please check if the log.txt contains many identical lines at the end before trying to post it. If there are, then remove as many of them as possible until the file is small enough to be posted here.

As mentioned previously please remove any repeating identical line at the end of the file to make it smaller. then you can upload here. Or as böserlöwe mentioned you can also upload it to a filehoster like http://www.file-upload.net/ and then post a link to the file.
