Multiplayer doesn't work
Hey guys, I need help. I tried to play CTP2 with a friend. We both just re-installed the game and the patch 1.1 and we got the servers.dat file from this web site.

We can access the nl.alink server without any problem and also create a game but we can't join any game. We tried on different games, we couldn't join any of them.

When we try to join a game.....after a while, we're getting a message : Connection Lost and we're taken back either to the lobby or to the profile screen.

PLease if anybody knows how to solve the problem....that would be fantastic....we miss that game.

Thanks

Nicolas

What operating system do you both have? Have you tried joining other people's games at all (besides you two) just to test?

Also, do you have any virus software running? example, (evil) ZoneAlarm? or ANY external programs running? Do you try to alt-tab when your connected to the game lobby?

We both have Windows XP and a good internet connection. I have Norton Anti Virus running, maybe I should try to close it first.

And we tried to connect to somebody else's game, it didn't work either.

Thanks for your help, I'll try closing everithing else

Try closing all external programs before you run ctp2, if that doesnt work also try win98 compatibility mode on ctp2.exe (im told this has helped before).
