Trine 2 Multiplayer not working?

[Tenarium]

So me and a friend bought Trine 2 to play yet we can't seem to connect in a game together? I'll create a private multiplayer game and she's not able to connect to it, it will just tell us failed to connect over and over, when she makes a game and i try to connect to that game, the same thing happens, does anyone know why this is happening?

Thanks

Hmm sorry to hear. This is rather curious. Are you both on Windows?

Steam Ports would be the first thing to check.

You could also see if you can join somebody else's game, and then if you both can join that same game...

[Tenarium]

I run a mac and she´s on a windows, but trine says that that should´t matter? I have also once before joined someone else´s game...

[JoelFB]

It shouldn't matter, no... However, are you both using Steam? The Mac App Store version isn't compatible with Steam multiplayer so I just want to make sure that's not the problem (well I can already deduct that you are both using Steam if you get the Failed to connect error message)...

Are you able to play other games in multiplayer? Or rather, are you able to play other games in multiplayer in general, not necessarily with each other. If so, then try if you both can join any other public Trine 2 game and see if it works. I suspect that one of you might have some connection issue for some reason, hence the trouble, so knowing that will get us one step closer...

i´ll try that later on today then, but what I can say now is that we can play every other multiplayer game together, tf2, cs source, and i know it´s not through steam but we also play a bit of mine craft, so playing multiplayer games online with or without each other does work.

[JoelFB]

Right. Well I'm a little stumped to be honest, so let me know how playing with other people on Public games works, and let's see from there...

[tarps2]
