Lan?
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.

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.
