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.
Keep in mind if you play lan as the HOST everybody will be forced to download the character model from your computer. Sometimes takes a bit.
What? LAN uses the same netcode, so it only makes them download if the package is in the ServerPackages, which it should normally not be.
If it's a LAN party of some sort, wouldn't everyone make sure they have the other players characters/skins installed anyway? If the Host computer UT3 install has it and all the other players' computers UT3 installs have it, would there need to be any extra server stuff at all to get it to work properly?
We play LAN games with two PCs, where the host is playing as well (so not a dedicated server), and UT3 wants to transfer characters if they don't exist on the client PC. It's tremendously annoying, mainly because the transfer speed is much slower than the network. An aggravating circumstance is Vista's retarded behaviour about permissions when we try to copy stuff manually.
Well, use a dedicated server and launch yourself another client window. That's how you test mods in local netgames, too.
Well all I know is i hosted lan games before and people had to download characters off my PC even tho I wasn't even using them.
It never occurred to me that UT3 wasn't doing this internally. Maybe that would help with the frequent crashing too.
