BanksCFC Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Has anyone managed to succesfully run a network game on the new footy man. Me and my mates cant seem to get it to work at all, jus keeps coming up "cannot connect to server" Any1 got any hints or tips on how to get it up & running?

homerjnick Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Working fine all day for me here. You run as server, a tick in the box for preferences and if you have a router you need to have port forwarding setup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
millsy1982 Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 I have. I'm guessing you need to do some port forwarding. Only the host of the network game has to do it though. Its not the easiest thing in the world to do, but if you head over to the FM Network Forums, there is a link to a guide that should be easy enough to understand (if I can do it anyone can). Good luck setting your game up, its my favourite way to play the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
