help! I can't create game in multiplayer mode...

Post by never_be_good »

I didn't find this problem when I was using windows XP
But now, I am using windows vista, and when I click the "Create Game" in multiplayer mode. It jumps out to "desktop" and I have to close BGI at the taskbar...

Also, I tried to connect to my friend's game through TCP/IP. I was able to get access to his game (the screen showing the portraits of the characters) and he could see "xxx joined the game", however, when he clicked "done" and launched the game, I couldn't see it loading and "receiving data from server", but it jumped out to 'desktop' again... and I had to close it...

help!!!!!!!!!!!!! and thanks for your help!!!!

Are you using the XP compatability mode? If not, that might help. I wrote in a thread on the SoA board with a link about it. It may or may not help. Search for Vista on SoA to find it.
