Starting a Co-Op Server

Post by MrMojoRisin »

Hi guys. I'm trying to start a co-op server and I can't get it working. My friend and I have the same 227i version of the game. The one for the Steam version of the game which we both have. With Napali. When using Hamachi it doesn't work, even when I tick it to be optimized for LAN and he looks in the LAN category. I can see it there but he can't. When I advertise server online he can't see it and neither can I. When he tries to connect via IP through 'open' on the server list it says connecting for a while and then just disappears and doesn't do anything. Please help. I want to share this masterpiece with my mate who has never played it before. Also not a dedicated server. If I need one of them co-op mods, does he need to download too?

Nevermind, we fixed it by using the IP address listed from IPV4 Hamachi instead of the IP address listed in-game anywhere and having him type that into the 'open' bit at the top of the server list. Also be sure to turn off spectating first.

That's okay, thanks for responding at all :)
Unfortunately my friend is playing at 400ping, which is odd because when playing other games like System Shock 2 though Hamachi and Splinter Cell Blacklist through official servers we don't get any noticeable lag. Would you know of any way to fix this?
