DEBUG: Windows XP and multiplayer Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

I don't know if this has been mentioned before but when two players both with windows xp try to play a multiplayer game, it doesn't work. No players with windows xp can join another player's game who is using xp.

Is the same still true of the playtest builds we've produced?

Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

I don't know, I'll need someone to playtest it with me. Has this issue been addressed with the playtes? I don't recall anything related to this problem that has been fixed.

Got spare money?

Nothing has been done specifically to fix this, but the code is being compiled with more modern libraries (and a new version of the compiler too, I think), which might make compatibility problems like this just go away... (It's not very likely, but it's worth a try )

Look at this post:

It has some info that might help (I'm assuming CTP2 would work pretty much the same as CTP).

CTP2 is supposed to be based on CTP1 code.

I can't confirm this problem for tcp/ip under XP.

Here in my network I play with two times windows XP. One with XP Prof. and one with the XP home edition. It works also in both configurations no matter which one is host or client. Also with all versions, the original 1.11 and the 2004[1].04.03 apolyte.

I was using Windows xp home and the other player was using windows xp pro and we both tryed to host and failed. We both have cable internet, no firewalls or anything.

Edit: We both tryed using windows 98 combatibilty mode with out success.
