idk what do u mean specific??

[Hesus de bodemloze]

i don' t think it is possible to play this in lan mode.

[lt1956]

Yes you can play on Lan, I know people who have. Something is incorrect with their installs.

You cant play Internet with SPQR

[Hesus de bodemloze]

oeps my mistake i thought if you can' t play on the internet lan wont work ether.

it s a shame you can' t play it on the internet i think a lot of people would love to. is it possible to get it fixt to play on the internet?

[hiho TW]

yeah lissen to Lt its his mod ^.^

[czePowerslave]

My bad. Search the forum for the multiplayer topic, there is extensive explanation on your problem. Short version - you MUST copy SPQR from your computer into your brothers computer, to achieve EXACTLY same version. Trust me, reinstall is not enough.

Guys, stick to English please. We are an English language forum here, and it does nothing but annoy people to randomly insert your own language into a conversation.

tnx Jubal

and to be on topic:
i think to be sure you best copy the whole thing to the 2nd comp (already said by czepowerslave )

that's all i can think of

[czePowerslave]

Didnt I just say that post above Valerius? like you gotta copy me everytime why you didnt find the poor boy a link to proper thread instead

[Valerius Tiberius]

yeah sorry
it was just to show that you were right
that it was the only thing i could think of
i edited my post, happy now?

[czePowerslave]

Thanks. Now go search for that thread you lazy one!

[thranduil]

i copied it from my brothers pc to mine...

and now we still get the same problem of not compatible versions...

does it make any difference that he's got vista and i have xp???

i don't know what else to do

ps:
can Lt1956 please give more attention on the lan part of the game

[czePowerslave]

lol
not to speak for LT, but I guess that singleplayer focus is primary as off now and, yes, I think vista and xp can do its part alot. Not sure what else to do, but there are ppl who managed to run it.

*or was it internet?:-) *

[Hesus de bodemloze]

i don' t think it makes eny difference that the game is installed on a pc with xp ore vista, you can put the game in xp mode on the pc that has vista and try it, maybe it works.

[czePowerslave]

This running in another system modes never worked for me in any case...well its windows

[Valerius Tiberius]

to be honest, i really don't know
sorry

maybe it's the xp-vista thing, or your internet

btw, do you use the same cd key?? :hm: maybe it's that....
or do you have 2 version of RTW?

if you do, i suggest you post this in the multiplayer section or something... those people have more exp with this stuff

you don't have to use the cd key for lan battles, only online

and no we use 1 cd (well 3, cause its no dvd )

but thxz any ways all of u i'l wait till the next version of spqr maybe its fixed

[lt1956]

There could be a problem 2 different RTW discs. Could be when they were made also. All I know is many have PLAY tested in LAN with SPQR so its possible. XP vista thing have no idea I dont like vista and will NEVER use it.
