Is UT IPX compatible, if so how do I setup a network game PC to PC?

  • Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.

My buddy came by last week and we hooked up our PC's via a BNC line. We had terminators on both ends and we played

Half Life
Motocross Madness 2

Succesfully but we couldnt get UT to run...

We tried everything in the options tab but we could never see each others game...

We had the PC's on different IP addresses and Networking neighborhood worked like a breeze. I cant understand why we couldnt get UT to play Computer to Computer... Is this possible. If so how?

Thanks in advance!

That is if you are trying to run a server... I am trying to do two computers only. It doesnt entail any of that other stuff. Thanks for the try though.

LOL, be patient fool. We are not your professional tech support service, just a bunch of people with nothing better to do than offer help. No one is forcing you to check this thread every day; come back next week if you want.

Anyway, no you can't play UT over IPX and I for one am very, very happy about that fact. Use TCP/IP.

DIE IPX DIE!!!

Now if they could just patch out the Glide support... :)
