C4 Radical Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 My friend tryed to set up a private game so we could just duel over the internet on our own but apparently his game is on LAN and I can't see it online. I tried hosting one and the same thing happened. There isn't an option to change between LAN and internet games and there's nothing helpful in the manual. HELP please!

Darth Seph Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 There is at the top of the MP screen at "Join Server" it says find , just click on it and it changes from Internet to Local or Favourite Im sure u'll see it then OR Run a search for his name , or his server name.

Usurper Posted April 25, 2002 Share Posted April 25, 2002 Go to Play -> Create Server There are some options to choose from towards the right/middle/bottom. Dedicated server should be set to NO,....you have the choice between NO, Internet, Lan Tell your friend your IP address and he/she will have to enter it into thier favorites. Load up the game and you should be fine. I know this works because I host games for my friends all the time. Let me know if you need any further assistance.

Mertado Posted April 26, 2002 Share Posted April 26, 2002 Listen servers are LAN only and will not broadacast their presence to the Internet. Give your friends you IP address and have them connect manaully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The official word from LucasArts is that they intended for it not to show up...Only dedicated servers broadcast their presence. If you don't like this I suggest you email tech support and ask them to change this in a patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
