Topic: SFC3 Big Question about MP Skirmish (Read 1429 times)

I hope that someone will be able to give me some advice, but nore I or my brother can host or connect to a lan skirmish. When we try to host, the make game screen comes up but I cannot change anything at all, and my name does not even appear in the list. When I press the ready button, the game quits, unhandled exception. When we try to connect, the screen where you see the games, locks the game up, and I need to do Alt-ctrl-del to get out of it. Is this a bug in the beta patch or am I just doing something wrong. Thanks for any help!

Does your PC meet the minimum requirements for game play?

Can you post your Machine specs include your Operating system and Lan config Ie routeror hub.

yeah I can play internet games no problem. My machine does meet the min req.

xp2000
geforce4 4200
sb pci512
winxp w/dx9a
router is dlink 704P

So I guess from only these 2 posts no one else is having trouble like this. To me it really seems to be the game, since I have tried it on 2 machines and it does the exact same thing. If there is anything else you want to know let me know.
