Has anyone hosted a america's army lan game before? I have a server networked to my pc through a network, and then the onboard nic in my pc is wired into another network for the cable, long story but it makes sense trust me.



No matter whether i host from my game server or this computer, neither one can see the others game. Ive tried everything i can think of and i have a lan party at 9 tonight!



Now if i load up good ol half life on the game server, no ******* problems.



I've hosted AA as both the default local ip (127.0.0.1) and as its network ip (192.168.0.1) and nothing. I have full network compliance in any other game and in windows.



The game server has Windows XP on it, and im specifying the IP under alternate.



Thnx for any help!

Mmmm...I love LAN parties.



Honestly, you're not going to believe this, but running the "setup a home or small office network" wizard in My Network Places solves 99.9% of networking problems.



Try it and see what happens.

I'm sure there's an AA FAQ. Check it out maybe?
