CtP Multiplayer help

Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

I decided to dust off this old classic and hoped to host a LAN game for a friend to join on the home network. Both games are patched to 1.21 (I think - most recent patch from here). What happens is whenever one of us creates a game and the other can see it in the lobby we can not join. It always comes back "Game is full" or "Access denied" on occassion. We've tried this with dynamic join turned on as well. Firewall's are both opened for these.

What am I missing?

Thanks

Try right clicking the exe file ICON and under properties/compatability make sure 98 is click, IIRC.

Also, what OS (Operating System) are you using?

Vista/XP or 98?

For God's sakes

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I think that for months now, there hasn't been any multiplayer game - call to power 2, has it?
I'm trying to connect, it passed kaspersky antivir. & firewall, i was able to create a lobby (don't even know what that is, it's my first multipl. game ever...), but nobody showed up!
Moreover, at the beginning I didn't see any lobby at all (I'm guessing that's how you begin a multipl. game)
What now?
Anyway, I'd like to begin one! Anyone care to join me? I'm from Romania, so people on other continents won't get to play

Thanks!

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization 2

However, could it be that i'm missing something? Are there , in fact, hundreds that are playing actually, and i can't see them?
Is it possible that my PC didn't connect properly?

Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

I will say this, Call To Power (original) is still one of my favorites!

I havent played actual MP game is over 3 years, If I remember correctly?

But we had massive problems associated with Vista, XP service pack 2 when trying to load a save game (scenario not found error)

I played a lot with Paul from New Zealand and Erni from Germany back in the day, no problems there......

Do you have an updated server file?

I can attach one here later tonight if you need one,nopt even sure it is still available???

Best of luck, I resigned to playing single player scenario's of my choosing.

Thanks for inquiring though!

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

I have no idea what an updated server file is either...
So, probably I ain't got one

My necessary updates being done, I'll be needing your asistance on connecting, in steps, please! It shows that I'm connected, though!
