LAN problem
This is coming from somebody who has a very simple understanding of LANS, but...
My two housemates and I went out and bought our copies of PTW, patched them up, and tried to start a game... for two of us (me included) the multiplayer screen is completely nonresponsive. We can click on host or join, and it moves to the appropriate screens, but the list of variables will not change. Where there are normally buttons for pulldown menus there are just blank spaces which don't respond to clicking.
One housemate can get the hosting screen to work fine... but the other two of us cannot find the game when we load Civ 3.
The Location button on the multiplayer page is also functionless for us.. sometimes it says Internet sometimes it says local.
None of our computers are hooked to the internet at all, and the network between the three otherwise works... we can play SMAC just fine.
Anybody have any ideas? I've scoured the threads but to no avail...
Thanks.
