LAN Help
 

I am trying to play LAN with my bro, but it isnt working.

I have JO installed on both comps, i host a LAN game on 1 comp, then when i tried to join on the other comp, it comes up an error, says its an installation error, i just presumes it means it wont work because we both have the same cd-key.
We have 2 comps, 1 disc, i dont need the disc in to play the game, so i was hoping it would work, apparently not, Is there any way to allow it to host lan for the 2 comps with 1 disc?
Or do I HAVE do go and buy another disc, which i wont do....:(

Help appreciated. :confused:

umm im not sure. For lan, you shouldnt need another disc but...

yeah thats what i thought.......

"There is an installation issue. Please ensure you are running the latest consumer version install. (GDC012)"

:confused: Thats what it says, i dont have a clue....:(

Any ideas?

bump? :(

should be ok now?

How? lol, the error still comes up, but i dont know whats wrong.

{EDIT} Never mind lol, think i know now :p

rgr that ;)

mmmm, I don't suppose you have that same fix for me too, I am having the very same problem as D STROYER. Nova Logic should get a good kicking for putting that security patch on there game. its ok for the internet play but for LAN its way over board.

Any help is very much welcomed, I have joint ops and the Escalation add-on.. Both are full versions that I got in the shops myself. I'm sure its the serial code that is matching up when I try to play a mate on the laptop over My LAN network.. pain in the a**. :(

Cheers again and I hope I can find out a way to get around this problem :)

bump:confused:

What did you do to work?

How to solve this problem?

You are a thief and a pirate and you want US to help you further in this direction......GO FIGURE
You may be better of joining a group that does this software copying thing,,,sorry not much piracy goes on here, GO BUY a second disc and with that you will get legal serial numbers

Bro, this thread is like 7 years old.
