Hey,
My brother and I have been trying to get Carma2 network play to work. The game itself runs 100% fine on both systems (under XP Pro), but neither machine can "see" the other in order to initiate a network game (no matter who hosts, the other machine says "no games in progress").
The network itself is your run-of-the-mill home Ethernet LAN these days.... I know that Carma2 was written for IPX networks, so I've installed Windows' IPX-compatible protocol on both ends before trying (more specificially - "NWLink IPX/SPX/NetBIOS Compatible Transport Protocol"). No help.
[Edit]: - following the advice of some FAQs I changed the Frame Type under the IPX properties to 802.3... made sure that all firewalls were off, too. Doesn't work either.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
VR
