No way! Just one minor thing, a few turns might just have been luck... Please check further, a whole game is possible? Please? If so, i'd love to get a max network up and play some games with people..

No, im afraid I never did get this working properly. If you do find a way though, let me know please...

Yes we do... I hear there is a 1.04 patch, that I defiantly don't have - yet i seem to fail at finding it. Intrplay is no longer a company with a website it seems 🙁 .

Umm nope, it still fails I determined the ping is not really the problem, playing across the same network does the same thing... The problem might be because I have max installed (need it that way to play game apparently?) and he is just using the cd files (works find enough lol) The problem always …

Ok then. With the port forwarding set up properly, I was able to run the game. So we connect, select our units, and decide where we are going to start... My units appear, and I start moving, building what I need... My constructor moves as far as he can that turn (wanted to move him to build a …

Ok... It shows: port | status | protocol/app 213 | stealth | IPX I assume this is good?

ok thats good. So I think i have this router stuff done right... I gave myself a static IP, then told the router to forward port 213 (the ipx one) to me... Now I just have to wait till my friend gets on to test. Thanks for the help guys, ill let you know what happens.

Tracert is no help here, ping should work. Since you started the server: If you have a router you need to reconfigure it to pass that UDP port on to your computer. It's the same for serial btw. Ping does not work either... That is why i went with a tracert. (timeout every time I try a ping ,100% …

Nothing to see here...

I think I have figured out the problem... If I understand the ipx commands right, we do something like this: Me and my friend are chatting over aim, and so we try this ipx stuff. me: ipxnet startserver 213 him: ipxnet connect 213 me: ipxnet status result? no connections... So me, in my infinite …

ok so i made an image file, and i mounted it with imgmount... something like this z:/ imgmount d c:/max.iso -t iso -fs iso z:/ mount c c:/max z:/ c: c:/ cd max c:/max maxrun *max starts* *max still wants a cd* From what I understand, this should be what works - you wanted me to mount an image file …

ok. I understand the mount part. I do not understand how I am suposed to create an image file. Could you elaborate on that? Your guides in your sig go over quite well how to actually do anything with dosbox, but they seem to say absolutely nothing about image files (except that they need to be …

sorry, make an image and mount it? could you elaborate?

So I have my copy of MAX here, but the problem is is that whenever I host a serial game or something, it decides that I need to put in the MAX cd. So... I put in the CD. Same problem. I try mounting the CD drive with -t cdrom at the end, but... that does not work either. Nothing seems to work at all …
