Works perfectly, I ran around just now...all by myself, but it was running smooth. I never had a proper pc to play MP back in the day. Here's hoping we can get more people interested to play again. If there was just a way to redirect internet servers to the LAN browser screen that would really help :)

By the way, I think we should create a Frontlines Steam group for multiplayer and then use that to organise games etc. All of us aren't in the same time zone, but at least it can help us get a game or two going :)

PS: Is this server online 24/7 ?

PS2: I'm using my old retail copy if anyone was wondering, lol.

Thanks, I'm going to put up a server as well tomorrow, have a small community that I'll try and pull in.

Have had these servers up for some time now. If I can ever get players on them, I would love to increase it from 32 to say 50 slots?! :)

And yes, servers are online 24/7, they are running on our dedicated box. You need a legit copy to play, they are not cracked servers.

I do have a legit copy to play, still have my orginal retail one, I just didn't want to buy the game on Steam again, since I already paid full price for it back in the day.

finally a reason for me to really buy and download FFOW :D

Yea, the suggestion was made to run more rounds for Solar Farm. I have no probs with that, but if there are no players, then it seems pointless. I guess I could add a 24/7 Solar Farm server?

RoadRunner--Are you still in the going to creating widgets on desktop for players?
I don't know when anybody is playing.

Im thinking about getting it, had a ton of fun playing this game on the xbox back in the day, but I want to know if there is still a good bit of people playing the multiplayer before I buy. So is there?

[[SB]TacTicToe]

Not really, MP for the most part is dead.

Does this game ever go down to 75% off or is 50% as low as gets in steam sales?? I played it years ago just after it came out (loved it) and wanna get it on steam to play it again but 10$ is too much for a game this old ..

[Sapp3er]

Yes solar farm loved that one, let's get some games going on these servers. Also created a new group for any interested in playing multiplayer.
