None.

I just checked the firewall settings and Drakan is allowed free reign to the internet.

I'm just not sure what's going on.

But it's probably WindowsXP related!

I tried it again and eventually I gave up because it didn't work.

For some reason, I was unable to connect to another computer (join a game).

Or when I hosted a game, it didn't appear on Gamespy Arcade.

I'm thinking I need to do more work before I can actually host a game.

Okay, done that. Now I need a volunteer to see if it works. The problem with Drakan is once it starts, I can't access any windows software until I exit the game. So I can't send a chat message with the IP. And I can't get the IP until I host the game. Does anyone know how to control which levels the...

This is the line:

set MasterServerList "master.mplayer.com:27900,master.gamespy.com:27900"

I don't really know if it works, because I need someone to be on the other end to let me know if it does.

The only time I tried it with someone else, they didn't see my game appear.

How do you "host" a game?

I recently tried to host a multiplayer game from my computer.

Although I went through all the steps, it appeared not to work.

Is there anything I need to know to make it happen?

I was just reviewing the schedule.

Are these games going to happen?

I'm suffering Drakan withdrawals.

Yes, I'm sure.

I've never needed to use the mouse much. I've used it to aim the arrows and Arokh's dragon breath, but other then moving the camera, nothing else then that.

Arrow keys are for movement. Attack is Control and A.

At least, that's what it is in my version.

I've never really used that feature.

Only when I needed specific screengrabs of Rynn and/or Arokh from a certain angle.

I remapped them to something similar to Tomb Raider.

However, because there are more tasks in Drakan, I had to add extra keys.

For example, action and fight are the same in Tomb Raider.

In Drakan, fight and action are two seperate functions.

I'm buckmana.

I recently discovered Drakan and like multiplayer. I'm still working out level bugs, so my experience is not as enjoyable as I'd like it to be.

I also play Drakan: The Ancients' Gates, which is worth checking out, although it's a PS2 game.

I'm available most of the time (well mornings to afternoon in my timezone, add 10 hours to GMT). Night sometimes. Scheduling is often difficult, because we're in different countries. There are three servers which I can see, although I saw four once. I'm still trying to work out some bugs with Drakan...

Oh, I wish I'd seen that!!!!

Sounds like fun!

Does anyone have a savegame? I don't really know how that works in PS2, though, other then by giving someone a memory card.

Yeah, Eragon is dull in comparison to Drakan.

Boring......

The Chicken???

Don't remember that part.

I prefer TAG, although that's mainly because of the magic spells and target lock.

Being able to manuever without having to worry about where Arokh's head was pointing made aerial combat more interesting.
