Co-op help

Argol228 · 02-13-2012, 12:32 AM

I have been trying to play this with a friend, we started the island war custom mission and after about 10-15min in the host disconnects. this isn't a problem solely with that mission. it happens in any game mode we play. I opened my ports and I am pretty sure he has.

The only thing that may be causing this is that he has a retail copy and I have the steam which means I have to run the 1.03 patch via daemon tools.

have you tried points 1+2

http://community.codemasters.com/for...on-rising.html

that will at least clear up any version problems.

Yup definitely try the 1.02 cracked patch.

Ok cool, only question. will my friend need to rollback to 1.02 then apply this or will I still be able to connect with him using 1.03

i would imagine you should both just pop on the .02 patch for retail/steam respectives.

no need to rollback, yea? it's just replacing the .exe

Yea, just download acidx's 1.02 exe and place it into your DR folder, no roll back required (back up your original exe if you want). 1.03 was just a different exe that allowed for load from directory/folders before the win_000 files. AcidX 1.02 is essentially the same.
