Windows 2000 Network Crashing!

[bjorn]

The 1.9 TTDPatch seems to crash in win2k when playing over a network tcp/ip and ipx which makes it really annoying ... any fixes for this or ways round it ??

Thanks
Bjorn

Hi Bjorn,

i'm afraid you won't get real solutions here, that multiplayer thing is very buggy
after all we are talking about a 9 year old game, back then, MP wasn't important as today

Yeah thats true ... but the old Dos version worked perfect with network play!
oh well i guess this is the downful of using windows 2000 now .. heh, but yeah perhaps it could be looked at being fixed in one of the upcomming patches

Cheers

It also does not work on my XP...... in dos it did work indeed... that was fun...

Guess the only way round this is going back to old win 98se heh .. Which i can't do at the moment. so there goes the network play down the drain

I have a laptop to use for school but I installed a second windows.. 98se next to my XP... So I can always play multiplayer games....
