Right I've got two computers wired by a router and I was wandering how to set up a lan game. Do I have to have an extra pc as a server or can a server pc take part.
Also will the same game on two different pc's with the same key code work in a lan?
Thanks
Kev

Key coades on a LAN has been a non-issue for me as long as it was lan only.
Just launch a lan game and have the other join lan game... most you will have to do is enter their lan ip.

so will both pc's need static ip's (im guessing yes) beacause I've already got dmz on my own pc
You don't need an extra PC as a server only. The MP join a game section on the should have a lan setting that will search for other computers on the lan- just make sure the 'server' computer is up and ready.
