Hi!

I would dlike to know why can't I start a LAN game at work. The start button is disabled. My coworker see my name in the players list, but cannot reach me, probable because my session is not started properly.

This must be simple.... :confused:
 
Had the same problem, in my case we didn't have the same versions (I.e. he had 1.06b i had 1.05 patched with 1.06b but not 1.06 itself :rofl: still worked fine for SP though. Anyway, i made a clean instal of HoI and patched it up properly on both PC's, then lo and behold, all was fine! (now if only i'd get my bro to actually play it :()
 
LAN play

Thanks for the information. I may had install 1.06b on one of the computer, but not the other one. I f this doesn't work, we'll try a clean install on both computers. If it still doesn't work, we'll ask for help once more.
 
Update: Installing 1.06b on one machine: still cannot start the lan play. But, my new quesiton is: why can't I start a hosting? I shoul dbe able to start a game, then another joins in, no? :confused:
