He connects fine, but when trying to spawn, it doesnt happen, any ideas on why this is? I've also tried running 2 apps, but same thing happens.

Do you have the latest version (v1.21)? I have been able to play with 4 player mp over lan with no problems, but a few common errors(not really meteors fault) are: Windows Firewall. You can unblock meteor 2. Player Number set too low(not the prob in your case) Firewalls in general. Are you playing on the internet, or over a lan?

The player who's having trouble is me. Anyways, long story short, my screen hangs on the "Press Space to Respawn". WTF is up with that? You need to login to create posts in this thread. |

Does the game freeze, or can you access the menu? If this happens again, try going into windows, and checking to see if a forewall is blocking it. Most firewalls will allow certian programs to be unblocked manually. You need to login to create posts in this thread. |

I have seen this first hand as we have been able to replicate it perfectly. It is exactly as described. The server sees the client spawn but not move. The client just sees the "press space to respawn" screen. We observed these results over a broadband connection with routers at both ends, however I don't think it is a routing issue. I will be looking into this in more detail over the next week or so. I will also try to increase the performance (less lag). Edit: it is unlikely to be a firewall issue, it is just a dropped/wrong order network packet problem. Edited: 19 January 2006 11:26 You need to login to create posts in this thread. |
