Apollyon Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 make sure you have the IPX protocol installed on both machines.EDIT: to do so, go to network and dial-up connections, right click on your LAN network icon, click properties. On the box that pops up click install, then double click Protocol and choose the IPX protocol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyarlathotep Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 i think it would already be installed as it is in a high school with at least 50 pcsIt's not needed if they run the TCP/IP protocol (not needed if they don't run any programs that require the IPX protocol).

gryphon Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 There could also be the possebilety that a router or switch is preventing the game from running properly .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albert grogan Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 has anyone got a full on resolve to this?i have looked for the rotorz patch and not been able to find it and i may not even need it.ive got a 98 machine and an xp, both with ipx installed. 98 is running the spawned version with a cross over connection - no router, hub, nothing.let me know if this issue was ever resolved. and what does the rotorz patch do ?

albert grogan Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 i have just installed xp pro on both my machines, as i could not get it too work with xp to 98, so i suspect that it was deffinatley the protocol that i was missing, (cant remember the name)....
