Title: GC Multiplayer Campaign - Steam / LAN - no Planets
Post by: Pelz117 on August 27, 2016, 03:49:07 PM
Hello guys, i tried GC campagin in multiplayer via LAN, same STEAM Version on both PCs. I have German Patch and newest Bug Fix Patch. Also all Patches from Star Wars (Disney) homepage.
Both PCs used Win10

I copied the Mod Folder from my Tower PC to Laptop. On Tower TR works fine, even on Max Details.
Firewall is released
we can find us in Multiplayer Lounge, play together battles etc., we can even load save games and play them, BUT:
PROBLEM: On Laptop my planets start but at my brother on Tower PC the planets dont load, he get no credits and has no planet owned. doesnt matter wich fraction or which map.
First this Problem occurs always at the hoster but now only on the Tower PC, even if I am the Hoster

anyone else this Problem?

UPDATE: REASON is Empire of the Hand! This Fraction is not playable!

The only factions currently supported by the multiplayer maps are the NR and IR.

Yes this was the "problem"  ;D  we tried on each map which fraction is playable
LAN playing is now working - but is it possible also via LAN in Internet? Mean for example with gameranger?

Tried out today hamachi - but I didn't got this shit running

Typicall the easiest way to make mods work with things like Gameranger is to install it directly to the game's Data folder instead of mods. As in, copy everything from Imperial_Civil_War/Data and paste it into Forces of Corruption/Data and then set it up like a regular FoC game over Gameranger.
