EU1 multiplayer problem

[unmerged(8274)]

Since there's no EU1 support forum anymore ... I'll have to post this here.

I'm trying to play an IP game with someone, and I cannot join their games (IP not found), and neither can they join mine. We have no firewalls. We can connect to each other fine for other games and FTP. We have the latest version of the game ...

Anything we can try?

I'm moving this to EU1 GD, I've never played MP, so I don't know

I'll move it to the MP forum, best chance, I guess.

Hey this is what I did to play MP in EU1, dont know if it will work for you:

1. The host has to start/host the game through the local area.
2. Anyone who joins has to use the internet connection.

Hope this works, it sounds crazy but it worked for me. Actually found out about it by accident.

It worked!

That id weird. I wonder why it only works through LAN and not INternet.

-Thanks
