I've got a lan with 3 pcs, and i want to play lan carmageddon 2 on two of them. But i cant!
All pcs can see each other/share files and printers. All pcs have XP pro
I installed the ipx and netbeui protocols necessary for carma2 to connect for a lan game.
After lots of tinkering with ipx protocols settings and reading forums i managed to connect two of my pcs with dxdiag, thru IPX.
Oh yeah, and no firewalls are on. The only firewall is my modem/router's firewall which is only for internet traffic, not for the lan.
So i know that the protocol is configured ok, and my network works great!
hmm...
why the hell when one pc hosts a game, the other pc cant detect the game????
please help me if u have any suggestions, as i am out of ideas and i cant understand why it wont work!!!
