calvin Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 One is the 'server', the other one 'joins', so ... ... in preferences, the main computer must choose the option 'run as server', and just start a new game as you would playing on your own. Then if you have wifi on both machines or a router, check the IP adress. The second player has to choose 'network game', join game and then fill in the corresponding IP adress. He then should see the game created by the main computer and can now choose his side ... (check 'game status') Hope this helps! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
