dredknightHappy New Year Qwebek and everyone on the forum!
Here is a detailed guide on how to setup the game with GameRanger.
0.2.0 can mean 2 things - Either your games are different (patch levels, mods) or you create the game with a map that he does not have.
Here is guide in how to create a random map
Make sure you have followed LAN prerequisites as well.
@dredknight
Thanks for the links
For now we have tried through GameRanger but still no luck(
After installing NCF and Chaos pack i have tried renaming .exe files on both PC's as by instruction, tried both options
1. if you will play only with human players
- Rename H5_game.exe to H5_game_original.exe
- Rename MMH55_64.exe to H5_game.exe
2. if you will play with human and computer players
- Rename H5_game.exe to H5_game_original.exe
- Rename MMH55_Utility_64.exe to H5_game.exe
And it still writes - 0.2.0 error, both for standard maps that come bundled with H5.5 (i guess they are in .pak files because nothing is present in Maps folder) amd H5.5 armg maps(also the ones that are present in pak files after installation)
I have also tried renaming MMH55_Utility_64_NCF.exe toH5_Game.exe - still no luck , 0.2.0
Interesting is that game folders should be identical on both PC's - installed game on both PC's then zipped on one of them and copied to another - and unzipped there (replaced)
So i assume mods and etc should be identical
A also followed Multiplayer prerequisites
I guess it should be something with game installs, will try to make clean installs without copying game folder between PC's
By the way instruction links you gave are for H5.5, are you able to host and play NCF? What file should i rename to H5_Game.exe?
I also have worning when creating game through GameRanger - some
"Port-Restricted Cone NAT Router", do you have same ?
Thanks
