Hi.
I'm trying to set up am internet Multiplayer-game with 2 buddys, so I prepared some files, folders and configs (they don't know nothing aboout DOS or DOSBOX, me neither):
I prepared an install of DOSBOX 0.74 and Moo2, zipped it and (for researches) sent it to buddy A (win7) and everything went fine game started, multiplayer->join game->voilà, my game-> connected). So I sent everything to buddy B (win 10) and it won't work:
-buddy B can start the DosBox (I get a "connected from IP XXXXX" message/echo intantly)
-his game starts normally
-multiplayer->Network->join game
-a list appears where my game should appear, but it stays empty.
-a synchronous attempt on the Win7-PC is listing my game.
related lines in dosbox.conf:
ipx=true
ipxnet startserver 213 //on host PC
ipxnet connect xxx.xxx.xx.xx 213 //on client PC
port IS forwarded
Is it a Win10 problem?
Is there a fix?
Or is it a simple configuration-error on one PC?
everything on the net is related to "comm failure" or "Win+Linux" or things I think I can exclude.
Thanks,
Nightshade.
