Guest Posted October 13, 2003 Well I've racked my brains, but have come up short (suprise suprise). Problem is this: OFP 1.91, when using Sockets for MP over LAN. Cannot create a server. Screen says "Creating Client", then after about 15 seconds dumps back to the MP setup screen. I can use DirectPlay, I can join a Sockets session over LAN (I don't really play online), I just can't host. Internet Connection Firewall is off, Internet Connection Sharing is off. Network consists of three computers (one 98SE, one XP Home, one XP Pro) all into a 5-port switch, with ADSL model into switch as well. WinXP Home P4 2.4C Geforce4 Ti4200 Creeative Vibra128 S/card Asus Mobo (GA blah blah) Any Xperts know the answer to this one? Much appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Acecombat 0 Posted October 13, 2003 I dont have any experience on LAN playing ..but ..have you got the same patches on ALL 3 PC's ? Also is there a AddOn in your HOST's folder which utilizes a higher OFP version like 1.92? Oh btw i am jealous by your PC specs 2.4c and ti4200. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted October 13, 2003 Yep, all three are running 1.91 (for the moment, got to transfer onto other PC). No addons require 1.92 or above; like I said, I can join the session just fine...just not host Hehehe....still, I'd love that $30,000 PC someone posted Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
