can't host any games

[crotchrocket]

I bought this game for me and my two sons and none of us can host a "LAN/TCPIP" game. The LAN/IPX option is not available. Can open the multiplayer window but after clicking the "Done" button to create a game it does nothing...

Feeling very frustrated!!!

Open your Steam library. Right click IC. Select properties. Click the button that says "set launch options" and type -noupnp in the field. See if that works.

yes, did that. does same thing. I did see to do that in other posts, not sure if it worked for anyone. What is the command supposed to do?

Try those steps, it if still doesn't help please send warnings.log file to devsupport AT nordicgames.at.

First, try to deactivate Antivirus/Firewall for IC.exe.

If it doesn't help try the following steps.

For windows 10:

1. Right click Start
2. Click Programs and Features
3. Click Turn Windows features on or off
4. Make sure there is a check in Legacy Components
5. Click the + to expand
6. Check the box for DirectPlay

For other systems try to reinstall Direct Play

Checked firewall settings and DirectPlay settings; all are how you say to have them. How do I send this "warnings.log"???

1. Right click on the game in the Steam game list.
2. Choose properties.
3. Select Local Files tab
4. Click Browse Local Files.

You should find this file there.
Try hosting before sending this file as it's overwritten every game launch.

Next send it to devsupportATnordicgames.at. (change AT toh @)
