Hi!
So, I'm trying to start a Cossack: European Wars multiplayer LAN game between me and my friend on a network. And I have a few questions.
1. First, Is this possible? Has anyone else done it?
2. If it is possible, do I need to request a multiplayer Key from GOG?
3. What's the best way? When I start the multplayer battle, it gives me a set of options:
a). IPX NETWORK- I don't know what this is.
b). TCP/IP LAN CONNECTION- This is t he option that looks like I want to do
c).Direct TCP/IP- I imagine that the person joining the game has to know the exact IP address for it to work.
d)) INTERNET GAME) I'm trying to set a LAN game on my network, so I don't think this is my option.
Which of these is best for setting up the LAN game? If you did it already then how did you do it?
