Are you trying to host or trying to connect to a host on your LAN?

(to me, it doesn't matter if i being the host or connecting to a host. either way all i want is to race with multiple players (as in motogp) over the home LAN) Last edited by Farooq; 07-06-2005 at 01:14 AM. |

You do have a network set up at your house, right? If so, then you're going to need to make sure that the firewalls on each computer are set to allow your game access to the internet (or network in this case). Once that's done, it should connect. If you're running XP, then make sure the XP firewall is turned off, and finally make sure you've opened any required ports on your router (that should just be for hosting though).
Good luck.

One person needs to be the host that the other players connect to. |

There should be basic host setup instructions in the game manual. If not, try the official NFS2 site for instructions. |
