I have beem playing UT as a single player for a bit and have also tried the multiplayer on the net.
what i would like to try is setting up a server to host a game so i can play a m8 on the net.
i have tried to set one up using the start new multiplayer game as a deathmatch. when it is set up it sometimes appears in the server list and sometimes not even tho i check the advertise server box.
the main thing i have noticed is that it only really appears in the LAN server list and as a result no one can connect to it. the next time i log in if i use the open location it tells me the connection failed and it cant find the URL file.
what i really need is some basic advise to get me started on setting up a server.
i am running winME and using a 56k modem. i realise this will severly limit the number of players but as i only want to play 1 other thats ok.
do i need to download any other software to enable me to set up a server?
basically i need an idiots guide to setting up an UT server.
any help will be gratefully received.
