Help!
My Dad and I have two Macs, one running 10.3, one running 10.2. We both installed the Myth 2 1.5 patch. We are on the internet and a network (ethernet router) but cant connect to each other in multiplayer myth 2. When one computer starts a game, it does not appear in the game list on the other computer, and also wont let the computer join by ip adress. The computer trying to connect gives a gives a firewll error, even though we opened the port address on the host. :(
As a note we COULD connect when the host was running 1.5, and the guest was running, 1.3, but we had the incompatibilty issue (oos messages) :?: :angry:
Any help would be appreciated; We're sorta clueless here.
Thanks

This is typical of having 2 computers behind a router doing NAT. When you join with 1.3, do you join by IP address or via the gamelist on the server? We are planning on building 1.5.1 with several versions of the network code because some versions of the code work better for others then the built in stuff.
