i'v try and doesn't work. in my opinion winxp block some port or some other stuff used by the level of the "game", (i read u say that are 2 level 1 for chat and 1 for game) but not by firewall 'cos i'v didnt find any firewall on the lan settings. but dunno what to think, on the normal and advance settings firewall is off... 2 level use both 2003 port? or ther's some other port for internal communication (server-game)?

i'v try to connect to "127.0.0.1" and doesnt work.. now try with "localhost". with another pc last month worked with normal ip address. and on the pc with w2k if i create a server and connect(either alone) with 192.168.0.1 it works. i try and i post again... tnx

got another info : if i create a server on the winxp pc and i try to connect with any other player on server it give the same problemz. so the problem exist either if i try to run mta "alone" with no other player or pc on the server.

for cray : nothing different, is just 2 installation, no MOD, and two 1.1 crack(i'v try with 1.0too) for Chewd : i guess isn't a good solution... isn't a problem of sinch... it's simply 2 city... for VCP DeathB : i'm very very sorry...! BWT is the tirdh post if u want close all and just take one open! no problem forme.. sorry again! was firts time on this forum and dunno where to post..!

this is the first things i think, but i don't find any firewall activated on lan... is disabled on default on my XP version.

sorry just dunno where was the correct place... and so like Mr. Turing theac us... 3 is better than one ;P

ok sorry for my english!!! perhaps you don't understand what i mean. pc1(w2k) "bill" : start server start client connect start game enter MTA (get msg) chose player it's on and all right pc2(wxp) "ben" : start client connect start game enter MTA (don'tget msg) can chose player, i'm in a VC but i'm in another city respect PC1 ben cannot see bill and bill cannt see ben. for exemple the time of the 2 city is different. both pc can talk, and i read it's normal cos chat and game are different sistem, simply the winxp pc is out of the server game. this happen else if i start server on the wxp pc. guess is a problem of wxp

i'v just place on the general discussion, but noone answer, wishing is the right place... got winxp , a burton 3000, ati9600 etc etc. install vicecity and mta 0.2.2. all seems be right, i connect to the server(lan 2 player 2 pc the other is win2k),i can start the game, can chose my player, but when i enter the game the game is "different" from the other pc, and i can see that 'cos i don't recive the server msg like ("welcome in my server etc...."). i can send msg to the server (and see them on the other player) and recive msg too... just is "another" city. i'v run the program with all compatibility with w2k, i'v try to set almost every kind of permission to trough the network, thinking that could be a problem of that sukz win XP. i'v try with server on both pc, i'v try with the same pc and connect trought the 127.0.0.1 but got the same problem! really dunno what to do. PS: i'v tried with 1.0 and 1.1 vc, and 0.2.0 and 0.2.2 mta. nothing change. tnx4all DSoM
