Personal LAN, frustrated Options

[flatliner]

Hey all,

I am frustrated here.



I want to beat a friend at CODUO, and want to do it on my own LAN.



We have a verizon dsl setup, and back to back cpus.



I have installed CODUO on both cpu's, but I cannot find the other CPU on the list.



I also cannot start a server on the one cpu, i get the error



could not find script 'maps\mp\gametypes\_awe'



what am i doing wrong, and how can i set up a LAN game in my office here like on "the office"

I can help you with the error message

could not find script 'maps\mp\gametypes\_awe'

This is caused by a copy of the Awe weapons mod or a remade version of it.

Go thru your cod/uo folder and delete any files with awe in the name.



If both computer are attached to the same router you can probably ignore what hamma said as that's more towards enabling other people outside your lan to access the server you setup.

There's no need port forwarding as long as both computer are part of the lan

Process should.

1) Setup computer #1 with the game options you want, start the server ( NOT dedicated mode )
2) Start computer #2, go to the in-game browser, ( I'm not at my game computer right now but the in-game browser should have an option to browser either Internet or Lan ), set to LAN.
3) Computer #1 should be thge ONLY server listed. Double click to connect.



If this doesn't work correctly, let me know the make & model of your router.
