hi everybody,
yesterday i tried to race against a friend of mine in our LAN.
i opened a server with ut2004-3339beta and unwheel-msu. he tried to join with unwheel-ece on ut2004-3323, unwheel-msu on 3323 and unwheel-msu ond 3339beta.

of course the first attempt failed, becaus he didn't have the map, so he updated his unwheel. the everything went this way: he selected my server, got connected (i got the "player joined"-message), saw the loading-screen. while at the loading-screen, he appeared with a ping of 255 in the scoreboard.
after a while, i got the message "player left the game", but he finished loading.
his ut showed him the correct map and vehicles, but he wasn't in my game (proof: i was actually driving some laps, he saw me standing at the start).

other ut2004-lan-games work fine, we played some invasion and alien-swarm on the very same evening.

any ideas?

Hi,
i'm the guy whose machine seems to be not working right in Unwheel :(

Pointing to the FAQ where the question isn't stated and nothing near the problem, is sort of insulting :eek:
The other thread doesn't help me either.

I can play Single Player, every mode.
If i started the listen server, booiiing got a timeout when connecting.
If he started the server, see his post :)
In the forums i found this guy having similar probs (except he even can't choose a car)

The courious part is, that ut2004 and alien swarm are working. So it is most likely not a firewall (in fact i do not have one :)) or network problem.

Does Unwheel change anything at the netcode?
Are there libraries which unwheel depends on? Maybe i can post the version.
Please any help is very appreceted, cause those bot drivers are stupid like hell :) (No pun intended racing AI is most likely different from FPS :D)
