Best Patch for Multiplay over Network

[unmerged(16947)]

Hey, anyone know firsthand what is the best patch to use when playing multiplayer over a LAN network? I've heard that 1.05b isn't necessarily the best...

 

[unmerged(15723)]

I do not know which patch that could be better to use. Possibly 1.06.

1.05 is definitely not better.

1.05b is nothing but better.

If you want to not be able to play past dec 13th 1941 though be my guest.

Of course, Overlord is exactly right.

Hmm. In my 1.05 game It is 1943. Not a single crash. Playing as USSR.

It was a random bug in 1.05. You should upgrade ASAP, dont want to get into a really fun game and then have it crash on you. 1.05b adds nothing but good.

I agree, 1.05b is better and more stable. I can play well beyond 1941, so as Overlord, JGBaxter and Jech state; 1.05b adds nothing than good.

1.05b is better.

1.05c is out now and I see the compression annoyance again.

But have not had enough experience to vote for c yet.

My bet it's just as good as b.

Stable. CTD's usually come from mods and connection/traffic problems now a days in MP.

If we ctd in MP it's very unusual.

I'm having problems with 1.05c. When host loads the saved file, some of the players get their HoI hanged.
Just one solution ctrl+alt+supr

Anyone having the same problem???

Is there any solution/explanation?

thanks
