synchro Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 ive been playing multiplayer CMAK games with a mate online TCP/IP. works fine. tried CMBB and cannot connect. now, what i think i happening is he or i may have used US patches for our CDV games [we're both from UK]. butit is difficult to figure out. i've got the US version of 1.02 patch and so i know at least i have installed 1.02 of the euro CDV patch. i downloaded the US 1.02 just to compare with euro version. but can't find the US 1.01 or 1.03 US patches just to confirm to myself that i don't have them installed. i also think possibly my friend has updated his CMBB with US patches. that might explain why we can't connect with this game. any help about confirming US/euro patches game would be appreciated! thanks das 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 If your friend has the wrong patch installed (between the BFC/Internet version and the CDV versions) he wouldn't be able to start a solo game because the executable won't recognize the CD properly for copyright protection. You also need to apply ALL PATCHES SEQUENTIALLY, i.e. - 1.01, 1.02 and then 1.03. To be honest, I don't know the details of connecting via TCP/IP with an incorrectly patched game. It may do what you're experiencing, but I'm not sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
