How do you play networked?

Hi guys!

I just tried starting a server for me and a friend to team up on.

Reading the manual, it seems you start CoE3 once, to create a server, and then start a second instance of CoE3 to log on to the server with.

Unfortunately, steam won't let me start up two instances of CoE3.

Is there a workaround on this?

Regards,
Me

Found the answer myself. It is as follows:

1: Create a shortcut to CoE3.exe called CoE3 Server.
2: In the 'target' line, add -S -nosound

Double click CoE3 Server and start up a server + map, alt tab out, then CoE3.exe. You connect to 127.0.0.1, your friend to the IP address you find by going to www.whatismyip.com or similar.

When setting up the game, don't click start until everyone are ready. There is no chat lobby, so it's best to coordinate through skype (or steam) or similar.
