LO:MAC Multiplayer Probs

[r1zeek]

Hi guys, hope you can help.
Just decided i'd play LO:MAC over LAN with my friend and I found that I cant.
For starters, when I start a game, on my other machine, I type in the IP of the host, press start and nothing happens. I know the IP addresses are correct because they are manually set and are not using DHCP.
Pressing find won't do anything either. All my other games work apart from LO:MAC. Anyone got any ideas?
Also, is there anyway to customize your aircraft before you fly, one time I managed to get a look at my plane with payload and everything but I can't figure out how I did it!
Cheers for your help

I can't help you with the LAN problem, but for aircraft customization, you choose your coalition, and click OK (bottom right). Now you can choose an aircraft (selection should appear at the bottom of the screen), then you can click the switch at the top right (labelled payload and somthing else) where you can choose your payload, paint scheme, fuel etc. Hope it helps.

Oh can you tell me what scores you get with the rig in your sig in 3DMark2001SE/3DMark03? Cheers

I just found that Vietcong and BF1942 will not work either. BF1942 hangs when you go into LAN and it will also hang if you try to host a game. Vietcong gives me a timeout error and you cannot see the host. Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong, QoS or DHCP maybe?
