haha ok - i can´t really use KaZaA or iMesh until I get a new motherboard - this one is old and wearing out. It´s only got a 300 MHz processor anyway - i´m gonna get a faster one and try to have more than 96 MB of RAM

[Omnislash]

lol.

I won´t tell you what my pc is then!!!

[CombatGold1]

I don´t mind - I´m getting a new motherboard soon tell me. Come on, share it with the world!

[Omnislash]

AMD Duron 800mhz, 512mb ram, geforce 2ti, creative live 5.1 sb.

Getting a new motherboard soon too and having a Athlon XP 2ghz put in with ddr ram. Hopefully!

Mine is 5.1 speaker system hahaha! Creative SoundBlaster LIVE 5.1!

[Fireb0y]

erm, i dont really want that front speaker you have in a 5.1 speaker system...

[CombatGold1]

WHY NOT?

[Omnislash]

5.1 speakers are good yea but its hard to get sound to come out well though the back speakers. I go some harman/kardon speakers and there good.

I said soon! There not going to be too long. Intel will take over if they take there time!

Matt Gillard

[CombatGold1]

Take their time? No business knows how to do that!

Hello PPL

OK, I´m new to this forum stuff... so let me get used to it for a few posts plz .

Hmz, I don´t know wether this thread´s still about playing online, since you´re all talking about your computer specs. But I´d like to point you to the MSN gaming zone function called IPX zonelan

Maybe some ppl of this forum can start off a little TT community within the MSN gaming zone. that´d be cool.

So, my first post and erm... cya later ppl

[CombatGold1]

I use the IPX Zone LAN

But...

Transport Tycoon uses TCP Winsock, no IPX option there.

[Omnislash]

There is a IPX option in TTD. Only the windows version though I believe. Have you tested it Maruku?
Because TTD isn´t made for internet play. Only networks and direct dialups!

Matt Gillard

[Maruku]

Yeah, I did try the IPX MP option of TTD. Actually, I still use it, since a m8 of mine lives close to me and loves TTD as much as I do.

That was why I posted my post . Since the IPX function works perfectly, and MSN gaming zone offers you the possibility to emulate an IPX network. We should try it sometime. I can´t seem to find anyone who´s willing to try it, so I´m asking the lot of you forumming ppl .

[Maruku]

Ow yeah. With the unpatched TTD version, you can only play head to head. Don´t know wether the patch makes it possible to connect multiple players.
