MP crashes

[Woest]

Hi,

well i have tried the mp with a friend of mine.

Sorry but it was a no go.

Internet isn't working. we can see each others game, but joining doesn't work.

We have tried to open our ports, but joining just didn't work.

However it is possible that we just didn't open the right ports or that some firewall/router is still blocking the connection.

Next we started hamachi to try start a 'fake' network game. This was more succesfull, we could join each other's game. Then we started the game, set up our forces ingame and then the game crashes when we press continue.

Most of the time some one of us hangs and the other can play or we both crash to desktop.

Are we the only one with this experience?

Btw my pc specs are:

dualcore E6600

Windows Vista

Geforce 9600 GTS, 512 mb

I don't know the specs of my friend.

I wonder why nobody has replied on this topic...we are really keen on playing the multplayer. Therefore we hope that someone can help us. I also like to know if there are more players experiencing this problem.

Did you both install the patch? Try to enable compatibility mode, it may fix the crash.
