Red Alert 2
I know there have been several threads about RA2 and LAN/Internet play but after following all the advice that came up from a search within the forums I still have one problem.
All I wish to do is play a multiplayer game over LAN between two PC's running Red Alert 2 updated to v.1006.
Under the network area both PC's can see each other but when I try to create a new game I am always prompted with "you must select a game". Nothing happens as I am unable to select a game.
Can anyone tell me under multiplayer over LAN why I am unable to select a game, yet both PC's can see one another. I would dearly love to play this with my son who is now old enough to play such an iconic game from the past.
Thanks
Lee
For the record I have:
Two PC's - one laptop Win7 64Bit and one desktop Win7 32Bit
Wirelss LAN ( UK BT HomeHub 3 )
RA2 LAN Patch from another thread here, placed into RA2 game directory ( C:\Westwood\RA2 )
Firewall on but allowing for RA2 game.exe to pass through
