When playing in MP, on almost all annexations by the cpu or pcs causes for the none host to CTD...this seems to be random and occaisonally dosn't happen sometimes if we just rehosted...but this is the rare rare exception. Am playing on Windows XP with an Athalon 2500, 512MB of DDR RAM and 128mb GeForce 5600.
Friends computer is AMD Athlon XP 2400, 512 MB of RAM, GeForce 4 MX 440 with 64meg of ram..
Also...when in MP their appears to be a problem with rehosting imeaditly after disconecting...
like lets say Im hosting, he CTDs or disconects for whatever reason...if I try and rehost when he clicks the join button it will pause like its searching for the ip address (I presume thats what it is doing, the mouse freezes and appears to be frozen like when it is compressing a file for transfer) then it will jsut return to normal, not joining, and letting him move the mouse again. this happens with all Paradox games that weve played (EU2/HOI/Vicky) and happens in TCP/IP (Internet) and Valk.net. Happens for both of us, not mattering whos hosting/joining and only happens in the aforementioned games. If we wait an hour (roughly) then we can rejoin. Reinstalling/Quiting/Restarting does not effect the timer on this...However if I was the previous Host, then he host it works fine, only if the previous Host tries to host again. (It is still a problem for us however because when he host we have to play at super slow or else the dates change/people joining lag alot due to his firewall...)...
He has a broadband internet connection with another computer in front of it acting as a firewall and Im using DSL routed through a hub with no firewall.
